However, no matter how others spoil me, I don't like pets. It's not that I don't have love, but because of the past.
When I was a child, I played hide-and-seek with my classmates and ran around to hide. I was bitten by a neighbor's dog. At that time, there was no rabies vaccine, just some purple liquid. It hurts for a long time, and there are still two deep tooth marks on my leg.
In the late 1960s, I responded to Chairman Mao's call to go to the countryside. In rural areas, every poor middle-class peasant family keeps domestic animals such as cats, dogs and pigs. They are not pets, but members who contribute to the family. Although I take responsibility, I like leftovers.
I also fed a little pig at that time. Because I didn't give the pigsty to the team. I just use a rope more than one meter long and tie it to the doorknob. When I come back from work every day, I just pinch a handful of weeds and throw them to pigs. In this way, after only one month, the chubby little suckling pig changed its appearance. Straight hair and clear ribs. Once, it really couldn't stand hunger, so it broke free and went to find food by itself. Let's call it a day. I don't see a pig. I am in a hurry. I can't live without it! This is not only my wealth, but also a witness that I humbly accept the re-education of poor middle peasants. So, I looked everywhere. Unconsciously found the neighboring team. Several fierce watchdog barked around me. The members of the neighboring team came and were about to catch the dog, but I was not happy when I heard that I was an educated youth and came to look for a pig. Later I learned that they think pigs are a symbol of wealth. If I take it, they will have no money. So they won't help me drive the dog away. Seeing some vicious dogs about to pounce on me, I was so anxious that I almost cried. When I was desperate, I suddenly remembered the way to teach poor and middle peasants. I quickly pretended to pick up the stones on the ground. In this way, I finally highlighted the encirclement of vicious dogs. From then on, I hated dogs.
Aside from personal grudges, what are the benefits of having a dog?
I remember old people often say: people feed their mouths for three years, and dogs feed them for three years or dogs. Do people who don't know pets know this wise saying?
Secondly, I remember that the mayors of large and medium-sized cities in China answered public concerns on TV last year. At the same time, a Guangzhou citizen asked the mayor how to deal with the problem of keeping pets. The mayor said: I don't support keeping pets. 1. The citizens are not rich yet. 2 infectious diseases. 3. pollute the environment. As soon as his voice fell, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause.
It is not difficult to see that most people still don't like keeping pets.
According to Xinhua News Agency in Jinan, there are 60,000 pet dogs in Qingdao alone, which costs more than 200 million yuan a year. How many pets are there in other cities? What is the annual expenditure?
The point is: what role did these expenses play? Not only does it have no effect, but it has a negative impact.
Friend, with all due respect, after reading the amazing figures above, do you have any pets? When you show your love for your pets, have you ever thought that there are still many farmers who have not enough food and clothing, many farmers who have no water to drink, and many children who are out of school ...
