☀️ Arselia and Akonia

— You're right, but you know, I actually heard the opposite today. They say our sun-faced emperor proposed to the senate and council to ban pets altogether. Allegedly for some sanitary, aesthetic, and humane reasons.

"I can understand that."
-- Well, in the end, the task of our government is to formulate problems and find solutions for them. I think that in this case, everything is simple: there are many owners who keep animals in unsanitary conditions, keeping many of them in a small rented room, not letting them out, and not even cleaning up after them. And if in the past there were dark times when poor hygiene in the streets led to terrible epidemics and human casualties, then now, observing such irresponsibility, one can only assume whether these careless owners will give rise to a new smallpox or plague?
-- But still, I'm sure no such law banning pets will be passed, -- if there's a shop nearby, Ayko is already sitting down by that time. -- Pets are not only a pleasure to look at, but first of all, they are helpers, and what will our economy do without cats saving grain from mice, without dogs herding sheep, without horses pulling carts? No, responsible owners have absolutely nothing to fear.
