China's latest pet trend

China's latest craze is painting pets to mimic wild animals. I can see it now..it's the middle of the night, you hear a noise, you step through your sliding glass doors and see THAT streaking past your patio..hilarity ensues. "No, I swear it was a tiger! No, I'm not drunk! Get the gun, hide the kids! LMAO!

The really dumb thing is, is that the Chinese routinely kill all the tigers they can - the bones are used there like Viagra is used here.
I wonder how many of those tiger/dogs will wind up in a stewpot or the Asian version of RiteAid?

I thought it was Tammy Faye Baker's pet.

LOL!

They probably use lead based paint too so they're still killing dogs, just more slowly.

Pretty but stupid. It looks like a perfectly good golden retriever underneath all that paint. Let the dog look like the dog it is, and stop eating both dogs and tigers, stupid Chinese.
Someone I know has a Chinese exchange student living with them for his senior year of high school and she can not wait for him to leave. He puts his head down on his desk and sleeps through classes in school, doesn't ever thank her for anything (and she has gone overboard for him, trying to do everything to make him feel welcome, including making special foods for their--Chinese--- holidays, etc.) and she says they "put on a face" and look impassive and unappreciative when efforts are made to please them. She has made her home into the wholesome place that kids (she has four or five of her own) like to congregate, always attends every game, etc. She is a nice person, of very healthy means, and has undoubtably made this a very comfortable and good place for this young man to stay, yet he does not seem to be appreciative of anything. I only met him once, and he was kind of a jerk, and did have a put on face, and acted very unimpressed with our hospital. (Our hospital really is beautiful, if I do say so myself.) It just leaves a bad taste, and I am not impressed with China.

Sometimes manners and customs are different. I just learned a bunch of odd things about proper Chinese dining. He sounds like a jerk though. I'm sure the whole country isn't full of heartless jerks, but, I dunno. I've never been there. China scares me.

Christina said...

They scare me, too. I don't think there is much they aren't capable of.

I couldn't believe that this wasn't photoshop so I googled it.

Unfortunately this trend seems to have actually originated in the USA!

You have to look through all the pages. As my mother used to say, everybody who's crazy is not inside the asylum.
