A companion animal is identified by the special relationship that exists between the
owner and the animal. The owner considers the animal to be a friend or a companion.

lasting social bonds with their owners, and they are easily housetrained. Their size

importantly, they are able to express themselves to their owners with gestures and
sounds.
