    Agreed. They're our pets, but it's also a hobby.

    Totally both. You need to add that option to the poll. Probably going to be the most popular answer with this crowd.

    i guess in my mind a pet is more than a animal that lives with you and you take care off, but rather an animal which you have a strong/ close emotional bond with, whereas a hobby is something you do to keep yourself entertained, relax, focus on, and where the primary emotions are like pride, enjoyment, relaxation, rather than love and friendship
