The annual cat expo held in Wan Chai, Hong Kong, attracted thousands of visitors with its wide array of pet-related products, ranging from premium cat food to AI meow translators. Among the attendees was a Hong Kong couple, Mr and Mrs Cheung, who own 14 cats and a dog. The Cheung family, known for their pet-loving ways, spend over HK$10,000 (US$1,275) each month on their beloved pets.
Mrs Cheung, a pet groomer in her thirties, was seen visiting the expo with her husband and four Maine Coon cats, who were dressed up and transported in a HK$4,000 stroller. The couple expressed their belief that pets should be indulged, with Mrs Cheung stating, "Pets are meant to be spoiled rotten." The cats, though enjoying their time outdoors, appeared a bit emotional due to the attention they received from event attendees.
By mid-expo, the Cheungs had already spent around HK$2,000 on cat food and snacks from both Hong Kong and Taiwanese brands. Mr Cheung, who previously sourced cat food from Taiwan and shipped it to Hong Kong due to its premium quality, expressed delight at seeing more Taiwanese brands at this year's event.
