Nowadays, many pet owners are pursuing the purity of pet breeds. Generally, dogs and cats cannot meet the needs of a new generation of pet owners. In the pet trading market, common dog breeds include Golden Retriever, Teddy, Husky, Schnauzer, Chihuahua, Bichon, Chow Chow, Labrador, etc. The cat breed also includes Scottish Fold, Siamese Cat, Russian blue cats, American shorthairs, British shorthairs, etc. Ms. Wang, a resident of Friendship South Road, told the reporter: "The dogs that are now in the community are almost all "in the spectrum". The most common and most favored Jingba has been less."

In the market of Baojidao flowers, birds and fish, it is not uncommon to sell “alternative pets”.

He is quite touched by the changes in the “l(fā)ife conditions” of pets: “The first thing to give cats a little yellow croaker with a stick face, it’s not long before the food is improved, probably 2003 At the time, I started to buy 7 yuan of cat food in Baoji Road. But after two years, there are more varieties of cat food, there are dry cat food and fresh canned food, and the price is generally reduced. But the price gap is still very high. Big, there are a few yuan a pound, and there are nearly 30 yuan a pound."
In addition to pet food, the life of Mr. Chen’s cat at home is becoming more and more “small capital”. Mr. Chen said: “Their “beds” are initially a few pieces of old clothes on a waste straw basket, which are now replaced with beautiful and comfortable shapes. The finished cat litter like a sofa. The professional cat toilet replaces the shoe box. There are also cat-scratching boards, funny cats, electric mice and other toys that are specially bought for them. Their lives are more and more colorful."
