Students shouldn have pets

These days’ students should have a pet, however some of students shouldn’t have a pet. And some of students don’t want pets because they don’t have pets for another reasons. In my opinion students shouldn’t have pets.
Some students really like the pets and they also want have a pet in their life, but they don’t know how can look after the pet well. For example when they have just bought a pet for few weeks, they like the pet and look after them well. Maybe they give pet a wash and sleep with their pet. However after a few weeks they are tired of washing their pet and they don’t want spend money for pet’s food or other things. And few months later maybe the pet is thin and dirty. Also they don’t bother to take their pet out for walk and this makes pet unhappy. This is why the New Zealand governments and pet shops don’t want sell pets to international student because when they finish their study then they go back their own country and they throw away their pets anywhere they can.
In conclusion, international student should not have pets because they do not have the energy and time to look after them well and when they leave the country their pet will have no home.

After Georgina told us about the UNITEC gym, she told us a little about her job, she advices about healthy living, fixes exercise machines and organizes sports teams.
The speech was interesting and quite useful for me because I am interested in taking on some sports in UNITEC too.
