Have you been to pet-themed (宠物主题) restaurants? Now in China, they are getting more and more popular because a lot of people love keeping pets. So actually these restaurants are famous for their pets rather than (而不是) food. There are not so many kinds of food in these pet-themed restaurants, but people can play with cats, dogs, ducks, rabbits or other animals while eating or having drinks. Many pet lovers would like to go to such restaurants to enjoy their weekends. However, is it safe to enjoy food in such an environment?
In fact, there are many problems of the pet-themed restaurants. Animal hairs are everywhere, and there's often bad smell in the restaurants. In one of the dog-themed restaurants, the dogs fight, jump onto the dining table or even poop in the dining area. Some people thought the animals in the pet-themed restaurants might carry parasites (寄生虫) and spread diseases (传播疾病), which were bad for people. Besides, although the animals are kept by the restaurants as pets, they may attack (袭击) people.
As more pets are entering Chinese families, they have become an important part of people's daily lives. The growing pet-themed restaurants have made people's lives interesting and colorful. However, without rules and regulations, the restaurants can't be good choices for people.
