    Switzerland (瑞士) is a very beautiful place. And the Swiss government has come up with some strange rules.

    Is it exciting to have a goldfish as a pet? It is easy to take care of and makes your life interesting. But hold on, you may make a big mistake if you live in Switzerland. It is not allowed to keep only one goldfish, according to the country's law (法律). Why? Fish are social animals. In the sea they swim in groups. The Swiss government believes it is very bad to make them live alone. So keeping only one goldfish has not been allowed since 2008. And this rule is not just used for goldfish. Other social animals, like guinea pigs (豚鼠) and budgerigars (虎皮鹦鹉), are also the same.

    Dog lovers have to take courses before they can own one—and then have practical training. If you just want a cat, you must let it outside so it can see other cats. If it's going to be kept indoors, then you've got to get two.

    Are you planning to buy a parrot and keep it alone at home for fun? Forget about it in Switzerland. It'll be considered abuse (虐待) unless you can get it a friend to talk to.

    One thing's for sure, these rules will certainly make most British feel sorry about their pet-owning habits.
