Question

Answer

The writer recommends the goldfish as a pet because it is a 'low maintenance affair'. He compares the goldfish favourably to a dog that needs to be walked regularly and a cat that is constantly coming in and out of the house.

The goldfish is appealing to adults because much of the care of a pet 'reverts to parents'. If this happens there is very little work involved in minding a goldfish.
