Domestic Dog
The family dog (Canis lupus familiaris or Canis
familiaris) is a domesticated canid which has been selectively
bred for millennia for different behaviors, neural capabilities,
and natural attributes.
Although initially thought to have originated as a
manmade variant of an extant canid species (variously
supposed as being the dhole, golden jackal, or gray wolf),
extensive genetic studies undertaken during the 2010s
indicate that dogs diverged from an extinct wolf-like canid in
Eurasia 40,000 years ago. Being the oldest domesticated
animal, their long association with people has allowed dogs
to be uniquely attuned to human behavior, as well as thrive
on a starch-rich diet which would be inadequate for other
canid species.
Dogs perform many roles for people, such as hunting,
herding, pulling loads, protection, assisting police and
military, companionship and, more recently, aiding
handicapped individuals. This impact on human society has
given them the nickname "man's best friend" in the Western
world. In China and South Vietnam dogs are a source of meat
for humans.

Domestic Cat
The domestic cat (Latin: Felis catus) or the feral
cat(Latin: Felis silvestris catus) is a small, typically furry,
carnivorous mammal. They are often called house cats when
kept as indoor pets or simply cats when there is no need to
distinguish them from other felids and felines. Cats are often
valued by humans for companionship and for their ability to
hunt vermin. There are more than 70 cat breeds; different
associations proclaim different numbers according to their
standards.
Cats are similar in anatomy to the other felids, with a
strong, flexible body, quick reflexes, sharp retractable claws,
and teeth adapted to killing small prey. Cat senses fit a
crepuscular and predatory ecological niche. Cats can hear
sounds too faint or too high in frequency for human ears,
such as those made by mice and other small animals. They
can see in near darkness. Like most other mammals, cats have
poorer color vision and a better sense of smell than humans.
Cats, despite being solitary hunters, are a social species and
cat communication includes the use of a variety of
vocalizations (mewing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling,
and grunting), as well as cat pheromones and types of catspecific body language Cats have a high breeding rate. Under
controlled breeding, they can be bred and shown as registered
pedigree pets, a hobby known as cat fancy. Failure to control
the breeding of pet cats by neutering and the abandonment of
former household pets has resulted in large numbers of feral
cats worldwide, requiring population control.
This has contributed, along with habitat destruction
and other factors, to the extinction of many bird species. Cats
have been known to extirpate a bird species within specific
regions and may have contributed to the extinction of isolated
island populations. Cats are thought to be primarily, though
not solely, responsible for the extinction of 33 species of
birds, and the presence of feral and free ranging cats makes
some locations unsuitable for attempted species
reintroduction in otherwise suitable locations. Since cats were

venerated in ancient Egypt, they were commonly believed to
have been domesticated there, but there may have been
instances of domestication as early as the Neolithic from
around 9,500 years ago (7,500 BCE).] A genetic study in
2007 concluded that domestic cats are descended from Near
Eastern wildcats, having diverged around 8,000 BCE in West
Asia. A 2016 study found that leopard cats were undergoing
domestication independently in China around 5,500 BCE,
though this line of partially domesticated cats leaves no trace
in the domesticated populations of today. As of a 2007 study,
cats are the second most popular pet in the United States by
number of pets owned, behind the first, which is freshwater
fish.

3. Rabbit
Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae
of the order Lagomorpha, found in several parts of the world.
There are eight different genera in the family classified as
rabbits, including the European rabbit (Oryctolagus
cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus Sylvilagus; 13 species),
and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered
species on Amami Ōshima, Japan). There are many other
species of rabbit, and these, along with pikas and hares, make
up the order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the
female is a doe; a young rabbit is a kitten or kit.

5. Fox
Foxes are small-to-medium-sized, omnivorous
mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae.
Foxes are slightly smaller than a medium-size domestic dog,
with a flattened skull, upright triangular ears, a pointed,
slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush).
Twelve species belong to the monophyletic group of
Vulpes genus of "true foxes". Approximately another 25
current or extinct species are always or sometimes called
foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of
the South American foxes, or of the outlying group, which
consists of bat-eared fox, gray fox, and island fox. Foxes are
found on every continent except Antarctica. By far the most
common and widespread species of fox is the red fox (Vulpes
vulpes) with about 47 recognized subspecies. The global
distribution of foxes, together with their widespread
reputation for cunning, has contributed to their prominence in
popular culture and folklore in many societies around the
world. The hunting of foxes with packs of hounds, long an
established pursuit in Europe, especially in the British Isles,
was exported by European settlers to various parts of the New
World.
