Tim: Jamie, do you have a pet?

Jamie: Yes. I’ve got a hamster. His name is Frank. He’s very cute and curious. What about you, Tim? Do you have a pet?

Tim: No, I don’t. I’m allergic to most animals, but my cousin does. He has a lizard and an aquarium full of fish. He also has a cat and a dog.

Jamie: Wow, his house is just like a small zoo!
