Christmas is the time that most kids ask their parents for a pet, but parents rarely want to add that responsibility into their lives, knowing they'll be the ones doing most of the work.

So if your child is demanding a pet this year, here is a list of gift ideas for your child that aren't a pet, ranked from least to most unrealistic.
1. Hasbro i-Dog

This is one of the least realistic pet toy options, as it's just an iPod speaker in the shape of a dog. It can play music pretty loud though.
2. Poo-Chi

The Poo-Chi is a more realistic choice, because at least it has a bone. But still, you won't be fooling anyone with this. If you go with this one, just make sure to remind your child how nice the heart eye lights are. Read more... (http://mashable.com/2017/12/17/pet-gift-ideas/)
