Instructions
Regardless of how you came about having an unwanted pet, the fact is you do. You can't, or shouldn't, kill it, dump it or throw it out of the car while driving down the road. You got it, it's yours and you need to care for it until you find it a home. Place flyers in the stores, veterinarian offices and with the local Humane Society to find the pet a new home.
If your case of an unwanted pet is due to allergies, you can either get medicine to hold you over or you can confine the pet to one room until you find it a new home. Be sure to feed and water the pet until this mission is accomplished.
If your pet is stupid, remember, it isn't the pet's fault. It could be due to bad breeding or it could be you! Maybe you're simply not cut out to train a pet, so be patient and look for a new owner. However, be honest and tell anyone interested in taking the pet that it isn't working out for you and tell them why.
Contact your local animal shelter. Chances are it will cost money to give the pet to them as they will have to care for it the same as you would, so don't flinch at the cost and remember it will be money well spent. If you keep the pet until a new home is found, it will cost money to feed it anyway.
There are cases when certain people are allergic to certain animals. You may already have a cat and have no problems, then acquire a new cat and discover you are allergic to it. This is not uncommon and the best way to prevent it from happening is to either be tested for allergies or spend time around an animal before taking it home.
