Contentment

I've heard from people telling me that pets are being sold in the Bangkok weekend market. However, I've been there a few times but didn't have the time to go take a look. This time, we were there earlier and I went to look for the pet stalls.

I saw many dogs, puppies to be exact being sold. I saw a very rare "pet" which was a hedgehog! Very cute little spikey pet. Hee... There were also hamsters, guinea pigs and of course bunnies. Very young bunnies. Many of them had their eyes barely open. They looked like there were at most a month old.

And they were already being fed vegetables as their staple. I'm sure I didn't see any hay or mama bun being around to feed them their milk. Well, this is a business to them and the cute factor is the most important selling point. Baby bunnies who are being fed vegetables might cause them to get runny stools and possibly lead to death. I don't even know what vegetables are those. They resembled pandan leaves but wasn't as they didn't smell like so.

They were all for sale at only 100 Baht! Sigh. I guess their lives are viewed as worthless. They are just like any other toy...
