Yesterday I was in Tokyo going to a meeting, when I stumbled upon a pet store that allowed it's dogs to run free and play without a care in the world. Intrigued, I entered. Never judge a pet shop by its cover, especially in Tokyo. Always assume it's 10 times more horrid.....in this case, 20 times.
After falling in love with the Dulux-commercial big pup who was running around like crazy, occasionally stopping to relieve his dry throat by drinking from the fish tanks, I almost stopped short when I noticed a small monkey in an aquarium, next to another glass prison full of tropical lizards, backing onto another cage with a barely alive Fruit bat.....
Needless to say I snapped a couple of photos for my blog so that everyone can see the real pet-shop situation in Japan (my stomach churns thinking about those in other parts of Asia...) and that something should be done to help these poor creatures who are being hauled up in tini tiny cages with astounding price tags waiting for some rich business man to come and buy his precious daughter an illegal endangered green lizard for girl's day.
Not cool.
昨日、東京でペットショップに入って、犬達はフリーで遊んでた。ええ？と思って、もっと入って、すぐいっぱいショックしました。マンキーちゃんとかフルーットバットとかいろいろな動物いました。小さいケージの中にみんながぜんぜん元気ないしてるから、本当かわいいそうと思った。もう、良くないよ本当に。出来る事はしたいね。
写真みてるの犬はかわいいでしょう。あの犬がとなりのフィッシュタンクから水飲みました。。。自分のお皿の中に水なかったからかな。。。
