Pet Keeping

Pet Keeping is a human practice within the broader domain of human-animal relations that involves the intentional incorporation of non-human animals into human households for companionship, emotional support, and social interaction, distinguished from other forms of animal use by its emphasis on affective bonds, domestic integration, and non-utilitarian motivations.
