Goldfish street in Hong Kong

[torti]

I guess a lot of ppl in HK opt for a turtle because of the small living space. And its easier than a dog or a cat.

But I can't even imagine what the little tortoises are going through in the pet stores. Do people even buy them?

Lots of ppl buy them. That street is so crowded at weekends. It's cheaper to buy a new one than a vet visit, some ppl just keep buying new ones and trash the sick one. I don't see any tortoises for adoption, only turtles.

Probably cause they don't make it past a few months. So sad =( and I always had a good impression from HK.

It's not too bad, everywhere has it's good & bad : )

True. That's why its not going to stop me from visiting someday. ^_^
