How many pets do you think would be too much for someone to keep up with? How many should they keep?
 
Depends on the animal TBH. If it's a cat...maybe no more than 3? Dog? No more than 2 depending on the breed.
 
It really depends on a few things. How much time and money someone has, and how much space they live in. If space is limited, smaller pets are easier to manage. But with larger pets like big dogs, one (or maybe two if they’re smaller) is probably the limit, especially if you’re not in a house, as they need more room to move around. In an apartment, bigger pets can be challenging unless you’re able to take them on long walks daily. Otherwise, they might not be a great fit for apartment life.

For example, I have a cat, and I wouldn’t want more than two.(I had two) Overall, having one to four pets is reasonable, depending on someone’s circumstances.
