  • Good Idea for the Japanese

    In Japan the culture does not foster a high regard for animal life, which is why you still hear of the horrible whale slaughter and hunting. They also have drop boxes where you can just dump your dog when you don't want it any more. Robot pets are ideal there. They can satisfy the need to stroke and cuddle and yet don't have feelings or need care. I am NOT talking about the way ALL Japanese treat animals - I'm just commenting on the culture of an entire country. By the way, these are cute and I'd like to have one. :)
