Can you do that to puppies or kittens?
Somewhat related:
Friends of ours have been traveling in an RV for a year or so. When they and their six children visited NYC, and ate at restaurants, they discovered that children are sneered at, frowned upon, and generally viewed with disgust. Pets are welcomed in restaurants.
They ALSO had to take their dog in for shots, and were admonished for not properly brushing the dog.
Brushing the dog? No, brushing the dog’s TEETH.
After hearing these stories, I have come to realize just how much people in NYC are insane. Shooting babies in the heart with poison somehow doesn’t seem out of character for NY’ers.
