Chinese People Selling Cats in Vending Machines; Netizens Furious, Calling It Abuse

Known as the 'Vending Machine Nation,' Japan has vending machines (hereafter referred to as vending machines) not only at stations and offices but also everywhere in the city. However, in China, live pets are displayed in vending machines, and videos and photos capturing this scene have spread on social media, sparking outrage. This was reported by the online media 'Oddity Central,' among others.

Anger over vending machines displaying live cats as 'animal abuse' (China) (Techinsight) https://t.co/AumKc8ohR8

It's a mystery why it's okay to sell them in cages at shops, but not in vending machines.

Food available

Well, in Japan, pet shops also have this kind of situation, right?

The level of management is more important than selling them in vending machines.

It's China, so who cares?

Even the cat lovers are furious about this.

What about the poop?

Even brothels might turn into this eventually.

I've seen a cat sleeping inside a UFO catcher.

If it was online, it might have been forgiven. Vending machines discriminate against netizens because you have to go there in person.

It was more humane than I imagined.

Was the cat human?

I thought it was for eating, but apparently not.

It's no different from being in a cage. It depends on how frequently they are taken care of.

China's ethical standards are broken, but sometimes that works in their favor.

It doesn't seem much different from a pet shop.

There's a UFO catcher with live cats as prizes, causing a debate online. On the 13th of this month, a post titled 'Chinese UFO Catcher' appeared on social media. The poster said they received a video from a friend and uploaded it with a feeling of 'what are they doing to live animals?' This video is spreading rapidly among netizens. This is not the first time in China that a crane game has used live animals. In March last year, Chinese media Global Times reported that an amusement park in Guanghan City, Sichuan Province, opened a game room with live animals as prizes.

You can't catch that, lol.

Do you prepare and eat it at home?

Cats love tight spaces.

It's like a lobster catcher.

Over there, it's just food, so it's fine, right?

When you get it, you have to buy an expensive carrying case.

I think there were vending machines for insects and fish in the past.

Vending machines are just visually worse; they're no different from pet shops.

China has a unique perspective.

Worry about the Uyghurs and Tibetans more than the cats.

Hilarious, it's treating them like objects.

It would be better if they were sold more easily like this. Rescue cat organizations are too meddlesome even after you buy them.

Even old men could be sold in vending machines... No demand though.

Cat abuse should be an instant death penalty.

In a country where human trafficking and organ sales are common, dog and cat sales are no big deal.

Chinese people eat anything with four legs except tables and chairs, lol.

The display case was bigger than the one at the local shopping center's pet shop...

Japan should sell Kyon meat in vending machines too.

Tokugawa Tsunayoshi would lose his mind if he saw this.
