Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This may be surprising to some who aren't familiar with these pets. What is the best diet for ferrets?

Answer: Mostly fat and meat

Ferrets are carnivores. This means that they eat only meat. Their systems do not let them eat grains, fruits, or vegetables. Some experts recommend that their diets should be about 20% fat and 80% meat. Feeding them raw chicken, turkey, or duck are excellent choices for these meat eaters.
2. Which of these pet birds can be trained to talk with its owner?

Answer: Parrots

All of the birds on this list are often kept as pets, but parrots are the only bird listed that can be trained to talk. Other pet birds that can be trained to talk include cockatoos and some other tropical birds. Parrots live a long time and need a lot of attention.

They can live longer than their owners if they are treated right. Everyone should think very carefully before getting a parrot as a pet.
3. When will pet snakes bite?

Answer: When they are handled too much, mistake a body part for food, or for other unknown reasons

All pet snakes are likely to bite at some point. There are many non-poisonous breeds that are kept as pets, but most of them do not like to be handled. Unlike some other pets, most snakes don't like to be touched or picked up. When owners do this too much, snakes will bite, which shows that they are not happy with that treatment.
4. Can a miniature horse live inside the house as a pet?

Answer: Yes

Miniature horses are usually about the size of a large dog. They can be house-trained like a dog, too. Miniature horses need to exercise and be on a special diet when they are kept inside as pets, because they will gain weight if this isn't managed for them.

They will have problems with their health if they gain too much weight. If you own a miniature horse, you will also have to make sure its hooves are trimmed on a regular basis.
5. What kind of pets can live in small "farms" inside people's houses?

Answer: Ants

Ant farms can be made or purchased from a number of retailers. The clear walls allow ants to be observed while they go about their business of tunnelling in dirt and excavating for food. When ant farms are kept, the proper temperature, moisture, and food content must be provided for the colony to survive.

A queen ant lays all of the eggs in the colony, so if you want the colony to live a while, you will have to place a queen in the farm along with the other ants.
6. What does it mean when a pet rabbit's ears are up and twitching?

Answer: It is alert and interested

Rabbits have long ears that they place in different positions. For example, when they are up and twitching, the rabbit is alert and interested in what's going on. If the ears are wide apart and flattened against its back, it is frightened. If the rabbit has one ear up and one down, that may mean that it is only half interested in a noise it hears. Watching for signs in the position of rabbits' ears can help owners to know how it is feeling. One important note - never pick up a rabbit by its ears.

This can be painful, and may cause damage to its muscles or nervous system.
7. What are the two most popular furry pets in North America?

Answer: Cats and dogs

Cats and dogs are, by far, the most popular furry pets in North America. Many polls suggest that both are far more popular than feathered pets, pets that live in water, or snakes and lizards. Some think that this is because cats and dogs like people more than all of the other pets that are available.
8. Where are pet fish placed in the home?

Answer: Special bowls and aquariums

Fish that are keep as pets are usually very colourful. They also need specific things like a constant temperature or light source. For these reasons, they are kept in clear bowls or aquariums where owners can see them. It is also easy to keep the water temperature and light source constant in these containers.
9. What kind of pets do some people keep for the eggs that the pet gives them almost every day?

Answer: Chickens

Some people keep chickens as pets. If you do keep chickens, you will need to put them in their own hut outside with access to the yard. This gives them a place to scratch around for insects, and also gives them a place to stay protected from bad weather or other animals that may cause them harm.

Their poop is quite smelly, so they aren't pets that you would want to keep in your house. They do have a bonus, though - they give you free fresh eggs all the time.
10. What is a hamster ball?

Answer: A clear ball that the hamster can be placed in for exercise

Hamsters need plenty of exercise. One way for them to get it is with a hamster wheel. Those are attached to the inside of the cage, and the hamster gets inside it and runs, turning the wheel around really fast. Another way to give them exercise is with a hamster ball. Those are clear balls into which the hamster is placed with the opening closed (there are small holes to let air in).

The hamster is then able to run around the house without hiding or escaping because owners are able to track them in the ball. Hamsters need to be handled when they are young to put them at ease with their owners' touch.
