Print This Craft

These cute little Pom Pets will be a great friend to take along on car rides or any mode of travel and you can make them from recycled materials or left over scrapes. They can also be companion pets to take to the doctor or in stressful situations. Unlike real companion animals these pets don’t need special papers to accompany little ones. If you don’t have supplies left over, take a trip to the Dollar Store for inexpensive materials.

Trivia:

Companion animals are used for company, amusement, psychological support, extrovert display and all of the other functions that humans need to share with animals of other species.
