Fifi 、Bibi水中探險你能想像一個很專心、很準時、很警覺並總是為公司每天24小時、一年365天盡忠職守的員工嗎？你可能會認為這是不可能的，但在我們這塊土地上我們發現兩個最令人印象深刻的員工。啊！確切地說，在我們的水域。

Imagine the ideal employee, dedicated, always on time, always alert and always performing for the company 24 hours a day, 365 days a year… you may think this is impossible, but we found the two most impressive employees in our land. Well, in our water, to be precise...

The underwater adventures of Fifi and Bibi

8 寶貝寵物 • 2013年11月

An old wives tale says that if you are beautiful you can’t be competent. Fifi and bibi, the two most amazing koi fish that have ever worked for macao Water, have proven how false that statement is. For over ten years they have been constantly alert, checking the quality of the raw water. And, at the same time, making their environment a place of beauty, thanks to their bright colours and stylish swimming moves.Fifi and bibi started working as macao Water employees on 21 December 1999, right after macau’s handover to China. The quality of raw and potable water is observed by company staff members every day, through the collection of water samples and checking them to ensure their safety.During the raw water pumping process, both Zhuhai and macao professionals monitor the raw water quality. Fifi and bibi enjoy the raw water, but at the same time help to double check its quality. They are unique aquatic inspectors, giving extra assurance as to the water’s quality. After all, who better than a fish to feel the slightest change in water?

一個古老的偏見說，如果你是美麗的，你就能力不足。曾經為澳門自來水公司工作的Fif i和Bibi（兩條最令人驚歎的錦鯉魚）再次證明了這只是假話而已。牠們超過10 年保持警惕，檢查原水的質量。同時，牠們鮮豔的色彩和優雅的游泳動作令周圍的地方變成美麗的景點。Fifi和Bibi於1999年12月21日（澳門剛回歸祖國）開始成為澳門自來水的員工。原水和飲用水的質量由該公司的工作人員檢查。他們每天收集水樣本檢查以確保安全。此外，在原水抽水過程中，珠海和澳門的專業人士監測原水水質。Fif i和Bibi享受原水的同時幫助仔細檢查其質量。牠們是獨特的水生動物檢查員，給予水質量一份額外保證。畢竟，誰可比魚對水質絲毫的改變感覺更敏銳？

比比BiBi

8 寶貝寵物 • 2013年11月


Tour guidesWhen bibi and Fifi reached three years of age, they had matured enough to show their gender. bibi’s head and body were bigger, and Fifi had a slim figure. This means bibi was male and Fifi was female. Were they in love? No one had ever seen them kissing (of course! They need to guard their position), but as they got along so well over so many years, they were considered a couple. A very happy couple.This couple worked as unique inspectors, but also as ornamental fish. They lived in the central control room of macao Water, helping to create a comfortable working environment for everyone around.Their talent was so exemplary that macao Water decided to make them movie stars. They were filmed and transformed into animated characters, shown in a corporate video, where they introduced the company as well as the water treatment process. They also promoted the water conservation message, becoming highly popular among children who watched the video.Fifi and bibi worked for macao Water until 2012, when it was reported that they “had gone to heaven”, due to their advanced age. Their solid work remains an example for all employees, including those that came to replace them. In the videos (and souvenirs), the Little Water Droplet family will continue their predecessors’ popular performances. In the fish tank, the mission now lay in the fins of five new koi fish. They keep the work of Fifi and bibi alive, double checking the quality of macau’s water.

Bibi和Fifi三年後已經成熟，足以顯示牠們的性別。Bibi的頭部和身體較大而Fifi的身形苗條。這意味著Bibi是男性而Fifi是女性。牠們在戀愛？從來沒有人見過牠們親吻對方（當然啊！牠們要謹守崗位），但多年來牠們相處得這麼好，極有可能牠們是一對夫婦，一對非常幸福的夫婦。這對夫妻擔任獨特的檢查員，但也可作為觀賞魚。他們住在澳門自來水公司的中央控制室，幫助大家創造一個舒適的工作環境。牠們明顯的才華甚至令老闆決定讓牠們成為電影明星。牠們被拍攝及變為動畫人物，在企業宣傳片中播放，牠們在片中介紹公司以及水處理過程。牠們也加強了節約用水的信息，在看過該錄像的孩子中極受歡迎。Fifi和Bibi為澳門自來水工作至2012年，公司通知說，因為年事已高牠們“已經去了天堂”。牠們紮紮實實的工作為所有員工留下一個榜樣，包括那些來取代牠們的魚。在錄像（和紀念品）中，“小水點家庭”將繼續前輩們的流行表演。現在魚缸裡的任務落入五條新的錦鯉“鰭”中。牠們將繼續Fifi和Bibi的工作，為澳門自來水雙重檢查水的質量。

在幾種不同類型的魚中，錦鯉是一種非常流行的選擇。由於牠們適應力強、容易照顧，牠們不需要一個完美的生活環境。例如，牠們吃原水中的海藻及微生物，這意味著牠們不需要餵食——錦鯉喜愛原水且能夠自給自足。澳門自來水公司視所有錦鯉魚如家人，並堅信每個人都應該好好照顧自己的寵物。“我們為牠們提供一個美好的生活環境，就像我們為澳門居民提供高質量和安全的水。兩者都是重要的，不能被忽略。”

Among the many different types of fish, koi are a very popular choice. because of their strong adaptability they don’t need a perfect living environment , and they are easy to take care of. For instance, they eat seaweed as well as microorganisms in the raw water, which means they don’t need to be fed – koi fish love raw water and are self-sufficient.macao Water treats their koi fish like family members and strongly believe that everyone should take good care of their pets. “We provide them with a nice living environment just like we provide macau residents with good quality, safe water. both are important and can’t be neglected.”

Five star workThe company thought that the fish tank was big enough to have more than just two fish, and now the five new water quality inspectors are even more colourful.The new employees have been named after the planets associated with Chinese elements: venus (metal), Jupiter (Wood), mercury (Water), mars (Fire) and Saturn (earth). They look great swimming together, contributing to a comfortable working environment.

五星級工作

現在五條新的錦鯉繼續Fifi和Bibi開啟的優秀工作。該公司認為魚缸足夠放多過兩條魚，現在的水質檢查更加富有色彩。幾名新監察員的名字與中國五個經典行星元素有關：金星(金)、木星(木)、水星(水)、火星(火）和土星(土)。牠們一起游泳時很好看，創造了一個舒適的工作環境。

狗的品種 Dog breed

Cão de Áqua – Dog of the WaterPortuguese Water Dogs are natural born swimmers and divers due to their webbed paws

Cão de Áqua—水犬由於牠們有蹼的爪子，葡萄牙水犬是天生的游泳家和潛水家。

Some say the Portuguese Water Dog is part dog, part

fish, with their illustrious history as a Portuguese fisherman’s helper. Not only did they herd fish into the nets, they also dived and retrieved items fallen overboard, delivered messages from boat to boat and guarded the boats and catch when in

由於其作為葡萄牙漁民助手的輝煌歷史，有人說葡萄牙水

犬一半是狗，一半是魚。牠們不僅將魚趕入網，也潛水並尋回從船上跌入水中的東西；牠們在船與船之間傳遞消息，守衛船隻並在港口執行捕捉工作。在現代捕魚方法被採用前，牠們一直是全體船隊一個不可分割的組成部分；20世紀初這種犬種幾乎絕種。多虧了一名20世紀30年代富裕的葡萄牙商人，這種罕見的犬種才存活至今。 Vasco Bensaude從葡萄牙沿岸的漁民中尋找僅存的葡萄牙水犬並開始一個繁殖計劃，使這種犬種得以延續。葡萄牙水犬充滿活力和智慧，牠們不適合不愛活動的狗主。牠們需要大量的身體運動和精神刺激以免感到無聊。牠們可以生活在公寓裡，只要牠們的主人每天帶牠們出去做一些輕快的運動，否則牠們在室內獨處時可能會變得有破壞性。牠們的被毛因為沒有底毛而呈波浪形或捲曲，牠們不會脫皮因此不會患過敏症。然而，牠們確實需要經常梳毛以免打結及清除污垢。牠們被親切地稱作“Porties”，當歡迎別人、或當食物煮熟時，牠們有一個顯著特點——興奮地站立及用後腿跳躍。對於這些有強烈意願的狗，狗主需要維護自己的領導地位。這些滿懷柔情、喜歡玩樂、聰明、精力充沛及忠誠的犬種很容易訓練；同時牠們具警惕性和保護性，而不具侵略性，因此成為優秀的護衛犬。因為Bo和Sunny（兩隻都是黑色葡萄牙水犬，Bo有時尚的白色斑紋）来到美國總統貝拉克•奧巴馬家（沒有加重他女兒的過敏），最近“Porties”變得聲名大噪。

“Porties”有一個獨特的多八度叫聲，這使得牠們成為優秀的失聰或聽覺障礙人士輔助犬。

Porties have a distinct multi-octave voice which makes them excellent as deaf or hearing assistance dogs.

port. They were an integral part of the crew until fishing methods became modernized and the breed almost reached extinction in the early 1900s.Thanks to a wealthy Portuguese businessman in the 1930s, this rare breed lives today. Vasco Bensaude sought out the remaining dogs from fishermen along the Portuguese coast and began a breeding program to

ensure the longevity of the race. Very energetic and intelligent, these dogs are not suitable for sedentary owners. They need a good amount of physical activity and mental stimulation to avoid getting bored. They can live in apartments as long as their owners take them out

for brisk bouts of exercise every day, otherwise they may get destructive indoors on their own.Their coats are either wavy or curly, and because they have no undercoat, they do not shed and therefore allergy sufferers are not affected by this breed. However, they do

require regular brushing to combat tangles and remove

debris.Known affectionately as

“Porties”, they have a distinct characteristic of standing and hopping on their hind legs in excitement when greeting people, or when food is being cooked. Owners need to assert their leadership over these strong-willed dogs.These affectionate, fun-loving, smart, energetic and loyal

breeds are easily trainable and make excellent guard dogs while being alert and protective, rather than aggressive.Porties reached recent fame when US President Barack Obama’s family brought home Bo and later Sunny, both black Portuguese Water Dogs, (although Bo has stylish white markings) that don’t aggravate his daughter’s allergies.

貓的品種Cat Breed

The lucky cat

Korat

幸運貓

柯拉特貓

nicknamed the silver-blue cat with a Thai passport, the Korat

is an oriental breed originally from Thailand, where paintings establish its existence as early as 1350. It is greatly cherished by the Thai people, who regard it as a symbol of good fortune, for they are the colour of silver, signifying wealth; they are the colour of rain clouds with eyes the colour of plants representing good harvests; and with their heart-shaped faces, a pair of cats given to a bride ensures a lasting and happy marriage.With round tipped ears on its unique heart-shaped head, the Korat have luminous green eyes, large and round when fully open, with dark blue-grey or lavender noses and lips. They are compact, powerful cats and heavier and more muscular than they first appear. Their coat is short and tight, which doesn’t shed much when pet or stroked, making it suitable for people with allergies. Dusky silver-blue with a silver sheen to it, this is the only colour a Korat’s coat can be. If it’s not silver-blue, it’s not a Korat.energetic, affectionate and forming strong bonds with their owners, they will accept other cats and dogs, but they expect to be the rulers and will ensure they always have precedence by their owner’s side. They love to play and climb, but are very gentle when playing with children. Korats develop slowly and reach maturity between two and four years of age. Their eye colour changes throughout their life, with kittens starting out with the colour blue, which then changes to amber with a green tinge in their teenage years, and finally to the jade green of an adult cat. Like fine wine, the Korat get better with age and enjoy long lives, many reaching old age beyond 20 years.This breed is highly intelligent and it’s easy to train them to play fetch and to walk on a leash. They’ve also been known to learn how to open doors and use taps. perhaps you can train your Korat to draw you a bath after a long day...

Divine communicatorIn rural Thailand, it is said that the Korat has the power to control the weather. Villagers often still walk from door to door holding a Korat, praying for rain, while people spray them with water so their cries are heard by the God of Water

美麗的溝通者在泰國農村地區，據說柯拉特貓有能力控制天氣。村民為祈雨仍然經常抱著柯拉特貓挨家挨戶走，而另一些人用水噴灑牠們，使水神可以聽到牠們的呼聲。

綽號銀藍貓並擁有一本泰國籍護照的柯拉特貓是來自泰國

的東方品種。早在1350年，泰國的繪畫中已確立牠的存在。泰國人很珍惜牠，把牠當作吉祥的象徵。因為牠們的銀色象徵財富；牠們那雨雲藍色加上植物綠色的眼睛，代表好收成，再加上牠們心形的臉，送一對柯拉特貓給新娘，保證婚姻持久和幸福。圓而尖的耳朵生在別致心形頭上的柯拉特貓有明亮綠色的眼睛，當完全睜開時，又圓又大，柯拉特貓也有深灰藍色或淡紫色的鼻和唇。牠們是結實、強而有力的貓，比第一次出現時更重、肌肉更發達。牠們的被毛短而緊，被親撫或撫摸時，不會脫落太多，適合一些身體過敏的人。暗淡的銀藍色配上銀色的光澤，這是柯拉特貓被毛唯一可能有的顏色。如果它不是銀藍色，那牠不是一隻柯拉特貓。柯拉特貓精力充沛、熱情、與牠們的主人有濃厚感情，牠們會接受其他貓狗，但牠們期望是個統治者，並確保主人方面會優待它們。牠們喜歡玩耍和攀爬，但與小孩子玩耍時會很溫柔。柯拉特貓發育緩慢，要到兩至四歲之間才成熟。牠們眼睛的顏色一生中不斷變化，小貓時是藍色，到青少年時期開始變為帶有一絲綠色的琥珀色，最後到成年貓時變成翠綠色。就如美酒一樣，柯拉特貓年紀越大變得越好並且長壽，很多會活過20歲。這個品種的貓非常聰明，而且很容

易訓練牠們玩接取物件和用皮帶牽著走。牠們也以會開門和使用水龍頭著稱。也許你可以訓練你的柯拉特貓，經過漫長一天的工作後為你預備沐浴...

Maggie met her cats in the big Chinese city and brought them with her when she came back to Macau. She is now expecting her first child, but the family is already full of love.

Maggie在中國大城市遇上她的貓，當她回澳門時，一併把他們帶回去。雖然現在她正期待她的第一个孩子，但家裏已是充滿著愛。

“Living in Shanghai was a great experience”, recalls maggie Wong. “It is a big city, you are always busy and live at full throttle. Coming back home and having moon and Lola welcoming me always gave me peace and warmth.”maggie and her husband, who will soon become parents for the first time, left Shanghai to return to her native macau. The cats, of course, came along with the family, even if that wasn’t easy. “We had to go through a lot of procedures to have them fly and enter macau. but I was ready to do whatever it takes to have them with me. It was hectic but we made it, and we

“在上海生活是一個絕妙的經歷”，Maggie Wong回憶道。“它是一個大城市，你總是忙碌，甚至忙得透不過氣。一旦回家，有Moon 和 Lola歡迎我，經常給我平安與溫暖的感覺。”快將第一次當父母的Maggie與她丈夫，要離開上海回到她老家澳門。當然，即使不容易，貓貓也要與家人一起回去。“我們需要通過很多步驟，才能讓他們飛回澳門。但我已經準備好，盡一切可能讓他們與我

一起。雖然忙亂，但我們辦妥了，現在我們一起在澳門了。”Moo n是家裡第一隻貓成員。 “我們在上海一個停車場發現Moon。當時她又髒又瘦，在我腳旁叫。我從她的眼神可以看到她說‘帶我回家’。”她的情況惡劣，勉強能活。“我不能丟下她，所以把她帶回家。我們留了她一晚，然後第二天帶她去看獸醫。她被檢查及注射疫苗。兩個星期後，她開始恢復，體重增加並開始發展她的性格，最後成為如今美麗的皇后。”

are all together in macau now.”moon was the first feline addition to the family. “We found moon in a car park in Shanghai. She was dirty and skinny, meowing right next to my feet. I could see in her eyes she was saying ‘take me home’.” She was in bad condition, barely alive. “I couldn’t leave her there so I took her home. We kept her for a night then took her to see the vet the next day. She was examined and administered vaccines. After two weeks she started to recover, gain weight and develop her character, to finally become the beautiful queen she is.”

說服丈夫

上述相遇不到一年後，Lola出現了。“得到Lola是個有趣的故事。當Moon 9個月大的時候，我決定替她絕育。我們找到一家非常好的獸醫醫院，便帶她去。我把 Moon遞給獸醫後，其中一位護士要向我介紹他們醫院內的動物庇護所，我當然去了。”在庇護所裏，大約有14隻貓，有大有小，Lola是其中之一。 “我知道我丈夫喜歡寵物，但他不太喜歡在公寓裏養動物。我幾乎已經將Moon強加在他身上，所以要養第二隻貓會是一個更大的挑戰。當Moon在動手術時，我先回家。我告訴丈夫，Moon手術後很難送她回家。所以，我請求他幫忙，他答應了。我們到達醫院，Moon的手術非常順利。帶著Moon時，我告訴丈夫，我很想向他介紹那庇護所，因為那裏有些小貓，他同意而事也成了 ...他作為我親愛的丈夫，不需太多說服便將Lola帶回家。”

有趣的尾巴

Maggie的每隻貓都有很鮮明的特點。 “我特別喜歡Moon的聰明，她很清楚知道如何利用她那可愛的臉，去獲取她想要的東西。她也是一個很優秀的獵人，冷靜

Husband convinced

Less than a year after this encounter, Lola made her appearance. “The story of getting Lola was a funny one. When moon was nine months old, I decided to sterilize her. We found a very good vet hospital and took her there. After I handed moon to the vet, one of the nurses wanted to show me their animal shelter within the hospital; so of course I went.” In the shelter, there were about 14 cats, some big, some small. Lola was one of them. “I knew my husband likes pets but he was not too keen on having animals in an apartment. I already had almost imposed moon on him, so a second cat was an even bigger challenge. I went back home while moon was having surgery. I told my husband that after moon’s operation it would be difficult for me to transport her home. So, I asked for his help and he joined me. We arrived at the hospital; moon’s operation had gone very well. While carrying her I told my husband that I really wanted to show him the shelter as they had young kitties, he agreed and the job was done… being the sweet husband he is, there was little convincing to do to bring Lola back home.”

Funny tail

each of maggie’s cats has very distinct characteristics. “I specially love the cleverness of moon, she really knows how to play with her

而自信 — — 沒有一隻蒼蠅可在我們家中逗留超過五分鐘。她知道如何迫近獵物，何時出擊，而她並不需要第二击。” 而Lola怎樣？ “她有點笨拙。我喜愛Lola友善的性格，她就是一個甜美可親的毛毛球。”

兩隻貓有些共同點，比如都相當活躍。 “每天早上和傍晚，Moon和Lola都會在整個寓所內作例行的追逐和格鬥遊戲（一路上會造成些破壞）。但Moo n尤其喜愛追逐鐳射紅點。為了那紅點，她完全瘋了，她竭盡全力去抓住它。她就是如此投入，你可以令她去任何你想她去的地方。讓貓全速奔跑，在光滑木地板上拐彎，你一定會捧腹。”

Lola不太容易抓到鐳射點，但她的習慣帶会給她一些不必要的意外。 “她喜歡潛入浴缸，追逐她的尾巴。有趣的是，當她還沒意識到浴缸已註滿水，她就直接跳進去。”

擁有兩隻貓和一個快要出生的孩子，Maggie想要多些寵物嗎？ “我很樂意，並肯定將來我會！自出生以來我一直有寵物，我認為寵物是我生命的一部分。我母親曾經取笑我說，我前生必定是隻寵物，所以今生如此愛寵物。”

cute face to get what she wants. She is also a good hunter, calm and confident – there is not a fly that makes it more than five minutes in our home. She knows how to approach, when to strike and she doesn’t need a second attempt.” And Lola? “She is a little clumsier. I love Lola’s friendly character, she is just a hairy ball of sweetness and affection.”Some things are common to both cats, such as being pretty active. “every morning and evening, moon and Lola have their ritual chasing and fighting game across the whole apartment (that has caused a few breakages along the way). but what moon loves above all is chasing the red dot of a laser. She goes totally crazy with that and she gives all she has to catch it. She is so into it that you can make her go wherever you like. make a cat run at full speed, take a sharp corner on a vitrified wooden floor, and you are in for a good laugh.”Lola isn’t that easy to get with the laser, but her habits can bring her some unwanted surprises. “She likes to sneak into the bathtub and chase her tail. The funny time was when she didn’t realize that the bathtub was full of water and she just jumped right in.”With two cats and a baby coming up, does maggie think about getting more pets? “I would love to and I am sure I will in the future! I have had pets since I was born, I consider pets part of my life. my mother makes fun of me, once saying that I must have been a pet in my past life to be so into pets.”



優雅的Moon

“Moon現在三歲零兩個月。她是一隻非常優雅和冷靜的貓，並把自己當作屋裏的女皇——只有當她高興時，才來找我們，當然還有她索取食物時。”

滑稽的Lola

“Lola現在兩歲半。她是一隻不活躍而有趣的貓。她愛喵喵叫（用她那半沙啞的嗓子），每天早晨，她來到我跟前，用她的臉擦我的手指或腳趾，同時發出可愛的咕嚕咕嚕聲。” Elegant Moon“moon is three years and two months old. She is a very elegant and cool cat that sees herself as a queen in the house – she only comes to us when she wants to, and of course when she is asking for food.”

Funny Lola“Lola is two years and six months old. She is a sticky and funny one. She loves to meow (with her half broken voice), every morning she comes to me and rubs her face against my fingers or toes with a lovely purr.”

Help and care

maggie is very passionate about animal rights and a strong advocate of adoption. “pets are living beings, you need to respect them and take care of them. When you decide to adopt one, they become your responsibility. Your duty is to care for them, provide for them and make them happy. Also, be very wary of the origin of the pet, sometimes it is better to save a pet that needs your help rather than to go and buy the most beautiful pet in a shop; once again they are living beings and not commercial commodities. Another reason I say this is that some shops with no ethics and little regard for animals do not hesitate to treat them badly. For every one that gets sold a number of others have to die in very sad conditions. So when you get a pet, make sure you are not contributing to a dirty business, but that you are actually helping animals.”

幫助與關心

Maggie對動物權益非常熱心，並大力提倡領養動物。“寵物是生命，你需要尊重和照顧他們。當你決定領養一隻寵物時，他們成為你的責任。你的任務是關心他們，供養他們，讓他們快樂。此外，對寵物的來源要非常謹慎，有時挽救需要幫助的寵物，比去店鋪購買最美麗的寵物更好。重申一次，他們是生命，而不是商品。我這樣說的另一個原因是，有些店主沒有道德，很少關顧動物，而且不假思索地虐待他們。每一隻被出售的動物背後有很多同類在惡劣的環境下死去。所以，當你得到一隻寵物時，確保你沒有貢獻那些骯髒的勾當，而是真正幫助了動物。”

寵物俱樂部認為，飼養他們自己的動物是他們做過的最好決定之一。首先，因為他們可以確保為這些寵物提供一流的衛生條件，而不是依靠外部資源。其次，繁殖的地方位於寵物俱樂部以外一塊大面積地方，那里為相關動物提供了一個更加寧靜和舒服的環境。他們的動物中50 -60％由Aida與她丈夫Lewis（寵物俱樂部另一店主）繁殖。 Lewis入這行時13歲，現在他38歲——從蛇、龜到蜥蜴和兩棲類，他已繁殖出多種爬蟲類動物。他解釋說，他喜歡一步一步提高自己的繁殖技術；目前他在繁殖蟒蛇，也許明年這個時候，他會開始繁殖其他爬虫及兩棲類動物。這些蛇最初從加拿大或歐美進口——這是一個漫長的旅程，需要一至兩個月左右。由於一些蛇是二級受保護種類，把牠們合法和安全地帶到澳門需要大量的文書工作。蛇實際經歷的飛行時間是36小時（從加拿大經台北到澳門），蛇的價格約在100澳門元至50,000澳門元不等。Aida負責繁殖如貓、兔、豚鼠等動物，她說，她花了一段時間了解整個概念，因為動物繁殖涉及基因、顏色和血液類型的匹配。具體以貓來說，通過他們自己進行繁殖，她會陪伴猫媽媽整個分娩過程，從而確保猫媽媽不會過度緊張。 “我們只讓一隻貓一年生產一次，因為我們需要給牠時間休息。在4 -5歲左右，我們會為牠作身體檢查，看牠是否合適再生育。“當一隻貓不再生育後，寵物俱樂部通常會為牠尋找一個合適的領養家庭，或者如果他們與此貓培養了很深的感情，他們會繼續飼養為伴。Anita（寵物俱樂部的第三名店主）解釋說，在這類生意中，如果你不考慮你的寵物的生活環境和福祉，你可以很容易地賺錢。她明確指出，錢不是最優先的大事，雖然他們需要每月支付租金和其它費用，他們

會引起你的注意。從美麗的小貓到充滿異國情調的蛇— —寵物俱樂部會滿足你所有的喜好。過去十年這個家庭式經營的生意在澳門建立了信譽，當他們開始創業時本地的寵物文化相對較小。但從那時起，寵物俱樂部不但激發了道德觀和價值觀，而且也為澳門帶來了一種新寵物文化。寵物俱樂部的店主之一的Aida解釋說，他們剛開業時，每天光顧商店的客人不到10人，特別是在非典期間。現在客人情況比以前好多了。較大的家庭群體與他們的孩子週末光臨本店，家長向他們的孩子解釋動物並不可怕，反而是忠實的夥伴。她又說，能夠經營一個像這樣的店舖是有趣的，因為它本身不但是一門生意，而且也充滿樂趣。當有人進入商店，Aida通常可以從他們的個性看出究竟他們會更喜歡什麼類型的動物。她解釋說：如果客人初見面時是比較活潑的，他們通常會選擇狗。如果是較文靜的，他們會選擇“貓”，或者在更極端的情況下——選擇爬蟲類動物。起初當她了解這種模式後，她甚至開始注意到更多細節，例如，寵物配件的顏色往往會反映客戶的個性。我們也會為流落街頭的貓貓尋找領養者 .我們會先帶她們到獸醫處檢查身體確保健康 ,再靜養一段時間......在我們心目中沒有名種與不名種 ,貓其實只分兩種 ,野貓和家猫。前者是在大自然生活的，後者是我們常見的美國短毛貓 ,英國短毛猫等和東方短毛猫(即我們說的唐貓)。

quality and health conditions for the pets, rather than relying on outside sources. Secondly, the space where breeding takes place is a large area outside Animals Club, which gives the respective animals a more peaceful and relaxed environment. over half of their animals are bred by Aida and her husband Lewis Lee, one of Animals Club’s other owners. Lewis entered this business when he was 13, and now at 38 – he has bred many reptile species, from snakes, turtles, to lizards and amphibians. He explains that he likes to do things step by step to be able to improve his breeding technique; he is currently breeding boa constrictors, and maybe this time next year, he will start breeding other reptiles. The snakes are originally imported from Canada or the US and europe and it’s a lengthy process that takes around one to two months. As some of the snakes are classified as protected species, a lot of paperwork is involved to securely and legally bring them to macau. The actual flight time that the snakes undergo is 36 hours from Canada via Taipei to macau, and the snake’s prices vary from around mop 100 to mop 50,000.Aida is the one in charge of breeding animals such as cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and so forth. She says that it took her a while to understand the whole concept, because breeding animals requires the matching of genetics, colours and blood types. referring to cats specifically, by carrying out their own breeding, she will accompany the mother cat during the whole delivery process to ensure she is not over strained. “We only let a cat give birth once a year, as we need to give her space to rest. At around four to five years of age, we will examine her condition to see whether she should retire from giving birth.” When a cat retires, Animals Club usually will find an appropriate family to adopt her, or if they develop a strong bond with the cat, they often keep it for themselves. Anita Lai, the third owner of Animals Club, explains that in this sort of business you can easily make money if

In one of macau’s most crowded neighbourhoods lies a distinct

store that is bound to catch your attention. From beautiful kittens to exotic snakes – Animals Club caters to all your preferences. The family-run business has been making its mark in macau for the past ten years; at a time when the local pet culture was relatively small. Since then, Animals Club has not only stimulated people’s morals and values, but it has also brought a new pet culture to macau. Aida Airosa, one of the owners of Animals Club, explains that when they first started, less than ten people would frequent the shop per day, now there are much more customers than before. During weekends larger groups of families with their children visit the shop, parents explaining to their children that animals are not a threat, and are instead loyal partners. She also says that it’s interesting to be able to run a shop like this, because not only is it a business on its own, but it is also fun. When someone enters the store, Aida can usually tell from their personality what type of animal they will prefer. She explains: If the customer is rather lively, they will usually opt for dogs. If the customer is reserved, they will choose cats, or in more extreme cases – reptiles. Initially when she understood this pattern, she began to notice even more details; for example, the colours of the pet’s accessories would often reflect the customer’s personalities.They will also look for people to adopt street cats. First they take the cats to the vet for a check-up to ensure they are healthy and then let them stay and rest for some time. Here there are no famous or non-famous breeds, in fact, there are only two types of cats, feral cats and domestic cats. The former is live in nature, the latter are the common American Shorthair Cats, british Shorthair Cats and oriental Shorthair Cats (i.e., what is normally called mongrel Cat).Animals Club believes that breeding their own animals is one of the best decisions they ever made. Firstly because they can ensure top notch

you don’t take into consideration the environment in which your pets live. She makes it clear that money is not the number one priority, although they have a monthly rent and expenses that they need to pay, they still prefer to give their animals a bigger and more comfortable environment to live in. Animals Club believes that “If the pets are helping us make the business, we should in fact treat them better.”To work in this sector around three years of work experience is needed to grasp the fundamentals of how to take care of pets, and the problem in macau is the lack of manpower. Nowadays most people would rather work in casinos and receive a quick income, instead of spending their time in the pet industry. Animals club consider themselves lucky, because as a family run business, everyone puts their individual effort in, all playing their own parts to make it successful. As pet lovers, Aida, Lewis and Anita have numerous animals

還是會給他們的動物一個更大及更舒適的生活環境。寵物俱樂部認為，“如果寵物幫助我們做生意，我們一定要更加善待她們。”要在這個行業工作，需要三年左右的工作經驗去掌握如何照顧寵物的基本知識，而澳門的問題是人手不足。如今，大多數人寧可在賭場工作，賺“快”錢，而不願把時間花在寵物行業。寵物俱樂部認為自己是幸運的，因為作為一個家庭經營的生意，大家都各自盡力，各司其職令其成功。作為寵物愛好者，Aida、Lewis和Anita有許多動物在自己家中跑來跑去，他們真心相信寵物可以打開人的心扉，他們很高興地得知澳門現在有了一本屬於自己的寵物雜誌——這本雜誌可以進一步教育大眾，增強澳門的動物意識。澳門人，如果你醉心於看到可愛的小貓喵喵叫，兔子到處蹦跳，或蛇在你面前的一個玻璃魚缸內發出嘶嘶聲，前往兩家寵物俱樂部商店中的任何一家吧——你不會失望的。

running around in their homes, they really do believe that pets can open people’s hearts up, and they are delighted to know that macau now has their very own pet magazine which can further educate people, and increase macau’s animal awareness.

people of macau, if you would like your hearts to melt at the sight of cute kittens meowing, rabbits hopping around, or snakes hissing at you from within a glass aquarium, head over to either one of the two Animals Club shops –you will not be disappointed.

The most hazardous foods for your pets對寵物最危險的食物

we all love to eat, and as George bernard Shaw said, “There

is no sincerer love than the love of food”. our pets also love to eat, some more than others, and not only limited to what’s in their bowl. It’s definitely hard to resist your dog’s soulful deep brown eyes, or your cat’s supercilious yet imploring, green eyes looking up at you as you prepare or eat dinner. However, pet owners should be aware that the odd treat now and then may not make a difference right now, but over time some foods can be harmful and quite dangerous for your pet. below is a list of foods to watch out for. The list is not by any means exhaustive, however it does contain some of the most common culprits that do the most damage.

• 酒精• 酪梨（牛油果)• 巧克力 • 咖啡 • 葡萄和葡萄乾 • 澳洲堅果 • 牛奶和乳製品 • 洋蔥、大蒜、韭菜 • 生或未煮熟的肉和骨頭 • 生或未煮熟的蛋 • 發酵麵團 • 鹽 • 木糖醇（在許多口香糖、糖果和烘焙食品中的人造甜味劑）

• Alcohol• Avocado• Chocolate• Coffee• Grapes & raisins• macadamia Nuts • milk and milk products • onion/Garlic/Chives • raw/Undercooked meat and bones • raw/Undercooked eggs • raw Yeast Dough • Salt • Xylitol (artificial sweetener found in many gums, candies and baked goods)

我們都愛吃，就如蕭伯納所說，“沒有愛勝

於對食物的愛”。我們的寵物也愛吃，有的比別的吃得多一些，而且不僅局限愛吃自己碗裏的。你肯定難以拒絕你的狗那深褐色情深款款的眼睛，或你的貓那綠色帶點高傲和懇求的眼睛看著你準備或享用晚餐。然而，寵物主人應該知道，偶爾用零食款待寵物即時看不出問題，但隨著時間過去，某些食物是有害的，而且對你的寵物很危險。下面這個食物清單需要留意。列表並不詳盡，但它包含了一些最常見的錯誤而造成最嚴重的傷害。

我需要一條能夠學習與關注的狗。

I need a dog that learns and pays attention

to say that Jewel is a social dog would be an understatement.

“Little miss Social”, is how Jean Scott describes her 16-month-old belgian Tervuren. make that little miss verY social, because from the moment we met in the park to the parting of ways later that evening, Jewel was charm personified towards all who came into contact with her, from nervous children to overexcited puppies, she calmly interacted with all, winning them over, one by one. big, with strong personalities, is a trait shared by all the dogs Jean has ever owned. The intelligence of the belgian Tervuren breed is perfectly suited to the entrepreneur’s lifestyle, “I need a dog that learns and pays attention”, she explains. With a background in retail, entrepreneur Jean Scott came to macau from the USA in 2007, opening eyewear stores as part of The venetian macao complex, a successful venture where on the very first day she simultaneously opened four stores. Today Jean has two shops under her own name, one at The venetian and one at marina bay Sands in Singapore.From business to pleasure, travel is a big part of Jean’s life and it was important to her to find a dog that could keep up with her lifestyle. She travelled to the USA to collect Jewel from a breeder in Connecticut when she was almost three months old, “it took her about five minutes to decide that I was ok, and it has been love at first sight from that day on.”As a baby Jewel “was a dream”, travelling all over the USA during the first six weeks that Jean had her. The first weekend they spent together was in upstate New York, Hudson valley, an arty community where they wandered around into all the little shops meeting people, and where Jewel started showing her people skills at an early stage, “she was the

說J e w e l 是一條善於交際的狗是輕描淡寫了。

Jean Scott在介紹她16個月大的比利時黑毛牧羊狗時稱牠為“小社交小姐”。稱“小社交小姐”非常善於社交（擺出“小社交小姐” 的姿態非常善於社交），因為我們從在公園見面的那一刻到當晚晚些時候我們分手，所有與牠接觸過的人，從緊張的孩子到過度興奮的小狗，都覺得Jewel是魅力的化身；牠平靜地與所有人互動，一個接一個地贏得他們的讚譽。所有Jean曾經擁有的狗的一個特點是高大及具有強烈的個性。聰明的比利時黑毛牧羊狗這一犬種非常適合這位企業家的生活方式，“我需要一條能夠學習與關注的狗。”她解釋說。2007年，有著零售業背景的企業家Jean Scott從美國來到澳門，在澳門威尼斯人酒店開設眼鏡店——這是一次成功創業，從第一天起，她同時開設了四家門店。今天Jean自己名下有兩家門店，一家在威尼斯人，另一家在新加坡濱海灣金沙酒店。從商務到娛樂，旅行是Jean生活的重要組成部分，對她來說找到一條能跟上她生活方式的狗非常重要。她前往美國，從康涅狄格州的一名繁殖者手中迎來Jewel，牠當時近三個月大，“Jean花了約五分鐘就決定了，那天可謂一見鍾情。”幼犬J ewe l“是一個夢想”，J e a n 迎來她後的六星期，Jewel在美國到處旅行。他們一起度過的第一個週末是在紐約上州的哈德遜山谷——一個充滿藝術氣息的社區，在那裡他們閒逛到所有小店與人見面。在那裡Jewel已初顯牠的人際交往能力，“牠成了鎮裡的話題，孩子們愛牠（ ...），從第一天開始牠就有一個開朗的性格。”在澳門 Jewel對社交生活的喜愛沒有改變。 “牠喜歡去

talk of the town, the kids loved her (…) she had an outgoing personality from day one.”back in macau this fondness for the social side of life is something Jewel insists on daily. “She LoveS to go to Starbucks and everyday when we come back from our walk we have to go by Starbucks, even if it’s not open because she has to check that its not open. She needs to see it for herself, and not only the main entrance, but the side entrance as well.” Clearly not there for the coffee, Jean explains that Jewel can sit in the coffee shop “for hours”, watching people and having everybody talk to her and taking her photo, something Jewel loves. Something else Jewel loves is her ball. The orange ball Jean brought along to the photo shoot in the park was Jewel’s number one focus and love during our time outdoors, allowing us to keep up with her sharp mind and incredibly high energy levels as she politely dropped it at the feet of any obliging human, to be thrown countless times, her darting after it like a bullet. It was a tough decision for Jean to keep a breed like a belgian Tervuren in an apartment, given their energetic nature and active minds. However, with the long lifespan they are known for, around 14 years, and knowing that she will not be in macau for that period of time made it easier to take on that level of commitment. belgian Tervurens need a job, as Jean explains, and in an apartment in macau Jewel has given herself the task of making her toys hard to reach by pushing them deep under the sofa, something she demonstrates as we sit and talk. Carrying her toys from her box she pushed them under the sofa, as far away

星巴克，每天我們散步回來的時候，我們必定經過星巴克，即使沒開門，Jewel也要檢查一下，確定沒有開門。牠會親自檢查，包括正門和側門。” 顯然Jewe l在那裡不是為了咖啡，Jean解釋說，Jewel可以坐在咖啡店幾個小時，看著別人，讓大家跟牠說話，給牠拍照，這些都是Jewel喜歡的事。Jewel喜歡的另外一樣東西是牠的球。 Jean帶到公園拍照的橙色球是Jewel在戶外最愛及最關注的東西。 Jewel無數

as possible, looking longingly into the black abyss left behind. “She’ll sit there and sit there, and as I work from home my office is just in the next room. I’ll know she’s playing and then there will be the whimpers, and after a while she’ll come in and pester me until I come and get out whatever toy she can’t reach”, Jean laughs. As the office is at home Jewel is surrounded by people all day long as Jean’s administrator and helper are around, and deliveries come and go at least twice a day. Within all this activity Jewel has her own routine that she follows, knowing full well that she’s not allowed to go to the door. Her instructions are to sit and wait.early risers, Jean and Jewel head out for an hour every morning, Taipa Grande is Jewel’s favourite, she loves the steps and would climb it “three times if she had her way”, Jean jokes, and they do the trail at the top at least once, sometimes twice, time allowing. early evening they have their second big walk of the day (Jewel goes on shorter walks throughout the day) and one of her favourite things is to go sit outside in old Taipa, at the old Taipa Tavern and watch the kids on bicycles speeding around while Jean enjoys a glass of wine. “God forbid someone is sitting at our table when we arrive” Jean laughs, as Jewel “will literally ask them to move.”There is another more profound aspect to Jewel’s social side that Jean is slowly starting to develop over time. When she is old enough, Jean would like to use her as a therapy dog to spend time with children, elderly and handicapped people in homes, offering them love and comfort. Jean feels that most people can relate to animals and often people in those circumstances

次禮貌地將球放在任何熱情的路人腳下，球被無數次拋出，牠就像一顆子彈向球飛奔。這讓我們見識了牠靈敏的頭腦和令人難以置信的高能量水平。把像比利時黑毛牧羊狗這個犬種飼養在公寓裡對於Jean是一個艱難的決定，因為牠們天性精力充沛、思想活躍。然而，考慮到牠們以壽命長著稱（約14歲），並且Jean知道她不會在澳門停留那麼長時間，這令她較容易作出上述承諾。比利時黑毛牧羊狗需要一份工作，Jean解釋說，在澳門的公寓裡Jewel給了自己一項任務 — —把牠的玩具推到沙發底下深處，令玩具難以拿到，我們坐下來談話時牠做了一次演示。牠把玩具從她的箱子中拿出，推到沙發下面，推得盡量遠些，然後牠渴望地看著下面的黑色深淵。 Jean笑著說：“牠會一直坐在那裡，因我在家工作，我的辦公室就在隔壁房間。我會知道牠在玩，然後聽到嗚咽，過了一段時間牠

三次。” 他們會沿山徑走至少一次，如果時間允許有時會走兩次。傍晚，他們進行一天的第二次主要步行（Jewel一整天裡有些短的散步），牠喜歡的事情之一是去坐在氹仔“好客鄉莊”餐廳外面，觀看孩子們騎自行車快速往返，而Jean則享用一杯酒。 Jean笑稱：“當我們到達時上帝禁止其他人坐在我們的餐桌”，因Jewel“實際上會要求他們走開。”隨著時間的過去Jean開始慢慢培養Jewel的社交能力，此舉還有另一個更深刻的意義。當Jewel足夠成熟時，Jean想用牠做“狗治療師”，花時間與兒童、老人和殘疾人在家中相處，為他們提供愛和安慰。Jean感覺大多數人都能親近動物，但人們往往在上述各種情況下不養寵物或從未養過，他們身邊也沒有足夠的人關注他們，她形容說：“沒有什麼比有一隻寵物相依偎更美妙的事情。”

專訪 Interview

don’t have pets and have never had one, also not having enough people around them to give them attention, she describes that “there is nothing more wonderful than having an animal to snuggle up to.”It won’t be something Jewel will be able to do very effectively until she is about three and a half, to four years old. but in the case of therapy dogs its important to start training them young, getting them used to all kinds of strangers approaching them, from children

直到Jewel大約是三歲半或四歲時，牠才能非常有效地做一些事情。但要做“狗治療師”，重要的是在年輕時開始訓練牠們，讓牠們習慣各種陌生人（從兒童到老人）接近牠。 Jewel需要感到輕鬆自在，並準備好應付一切——從被扯尾巴到嘴部被觸摸——一些狗本能地不感到自在，但是孩子很可能去嘗試的東西。所有Jewe l的社交意味著梳理必須認真對待；牠每週沐浴一次，每周用帶雞肉味的牙膏刷牙兩次。 Jewel的梳理要求高，每天早上牠要被梳理10分鐘，Jean的助手開玩笑說，Jewel是她的“工作保障”—— 牠在公寓脫落很多毛髮。 Jewel寬大的衣櫃裡有約六條狗帶、十條項圈和大約二十條領巾— — 牠離開屋子時總帶上一條。Jewel也盡其所能保持體形。

to elderly people. Jewel needs to feel comfortable and be ready for everything from having her tail pulled to being touched in the mouth area, something dogs are not instinctively at ease with, but something that children are likely to try.All Jewel’s socializing means that grooming is something that gets taken seriously; she has a weekly bath and her teeth are brushed twice a week with chicken-flavoured toothpaste. High-maintenance, she gets brushed for ten minutes every morning and Jean’s helper jokes that Jewel is her “job security” as she sheds so much hair around the apartment. Jewel’s extensive wardrobe includes about six leashes, ten collars and around twenty bandanas- she never leaves the house without one. Jewel does her part to keep in shape too. Days that are either too hot or rainy to go outside do not mean exercise is sacrificed- Jewel does not make excuses. The treadmill in the apartment means that fitness never has to be skimped on and as soon as Jean gives the instruction she leaps on the treadmill belt and assumes her position, body facing forward, nose down and eyes looking straight ahead. It is a most entertaining sight. After demonstrating her prowess on the exercise equipment, Jewel still found the energy to show us a few tricks such as differentiating between her left and right paw (belgian Tervurens can develop a very wide vocabulary of between 120 to 140 words, most dogs know around 40 to 60) and rolling over in both directions in addition to patiently posing for countless photos without ever losing her cool. ever the hostesses, Jean and Jewel accompanied us to the lift as we were leaving, and being the well educated dog that she is, Jewel called the lift by pushing the button for us too.

牠喜歡去星巴克

She LOVES to go to Starbucks

當外面太熱或逢下雨天，並不意味可以沒有運動——Jewel不找藉口。公寓裡的跑步機意味著健身活動從來沒有減少，當Jean發出指令，Jewel跳上跑步機上的跑步带，擺好姿勢，身體朝前，鼻子向下，眼睛直視前方。這是一個最有趣的景象。在健身器材上展示了牠的高超技藝後，Jewel仍然有精力向我們展示了一些把戲，如區分她（牠）的左右爪子（比利時黑毛牧羊狗可培養認識一個12 0至14 0字、非常廣泛的詞彙表，大多數狗認識大約 4 0至60字）；在兩個方向上滾來滾去；及擺好姿勢拍無數照片而從來沒有失去冷靜。當我們離開的時候，一直是女主人的Jean和Jewel送我們到電梯，Jewel作為受過良好教育的狗，為我們按下按鈕招來電梯。

Dr. Dolittle answers your questions杜立德醫生回答你的問題

親愛的杜立德醫生:

我丈夫帶回家一些貓薄荷玩具給我們的寵物貓。我很擔心對牠的影響。它對貓有害嗎？當牠聞那些貓薄荷時便變得瘋狂，並在玩具上摩擦自己，仰面躺著盯著天花板，牠的爪子停在空中至少10分鐘。—氹仔一名擔心人

親愛的擔心人：

沒什麼可擔心的！貓薄荷是一種来自薄荷家族的草本植物，對貓無害。它會影響貓所有的感官—觸覺、嗅覺、味覺、視覺和聲音。貓薄荷的香味和油誘使一些貓的無害反應，摩擦自己及躺在那裡都是正常行為。那些效果幾分鐘後消失，你的貓應該很快會恢復正常。通過限制貓對貓薄荷的接觸，每周一次的款待對你的貓來說是不錯的。

Dear Dr. Dolittle,my husband brought home catnip toys for our pet cat. I’m concerned about the effect on her. Is it harmful to cats? She goes crazy when she smells it and rubs herself all over the toys and lies there on her back staring up at the ceiling with her paws up in the air for at least 10 minutes.- worried in Taipa

Dear Worried,Nothing to worry about! Catnip is a herb from the mint family and is harmless to cats. It affects all of a cat’s senses – touch, smell, taste, sight and sound. The scent and oil of the catnip induces a harmless reaction in some cats and the rubbing and lying around are normal behaviour. The effect wears off after a few minutes and your cat should soon be back to normal. by limiting exposure to catnip, it can be a nice weekly treat for your cat.

親愛的杜立德醫生：

每次我們一家人坐下吃晚飯時，我們的鸚鵡開始大聲尖叫，令我們無法聽到對方說話。牠看來没有疼痛，並有食物和水，牠為什麼這樣做？—新口岸一名快要聾的人

親愛的快要聾的人：

取出这些耳塞，牠只是想成為大家的一部分！吃是一種群體活動，牠尖叫是因為牠感覺自己被排擠。牠整天在籠子裡吃同樣的食物，很明顯每個人都想有新東西吃。在你坐下來吃飯前，確保在你的鸚鵡的盤裡放點新食物，也許家裡吃的一點點健康食物（例如一塊胡蘿蔔或西蘭花）。但記住不要給食物讓牠停止尖叫，否則便支持了這行為，而在大家坐下來吃飯前先給你的鸚鵡一小塊食物。

Dear Dr. Dolittle,each time my family sits down to eat dinner, our parrot starts screaming so loud that we can’t hear each other talking. He doesn’t appear in pain and has food and water, so why is he doing this?- going deaf in Nape

Dear Going Deaf,Take out those earplugs, he just wants to be part of the group! eating is a flock activity so he’s screaming because he feels excluded. He’s had the same food in his cage all day long and it’s obvious that everyone is getting something new to eat. before you sit down to eat, ensure you give your parrot something new in his dish, perhaps a little healthy bit (a piece of carrot or broccoli for example) of what the family is eating. but remember never to give food to stop the screaming otherwise it reinforces that behaviour, instead, give your parrot their morsel of dinner before everyone sits down to eat.


Dear Dr. Dolittle,my dog just chewed up my passport beyond recognition. He also chews our shoes, cushions, books and magazines daily. I’m at the end of my rope. What can we do to stop this?- angry in ocean Gardens

Dear Angry,Dogs chew things for a number of reasons. puppies chew to ease their teeth coming in, and older dogs instinctively chew to maintain good oral health. Dogs can chew out of boredom, loneliness, anxiety, and hunger. It’s best to buy your dog his own chew toys as well as edible chew toys to amuse him when he’s alone and make sure you give him plenty of physical exercise and mental stimulation when you are at home. For the time being, put away anything valuable that you don’t want chewed until he learns what he can and cannot do. If you see him chewing something he shouldn’t, say ‘No’ calmly and gently remove it from his mouth and replace it with something he’s allowed to chew.

親愛的杜立德醫生：

我的狗剛把我的護照咀嚼得面目全非。每天牠還咀嚼我們的鞋、靠墊、書籍和雜誌。我已覺得到了窮途末路。我們可以做些什麼來阻止這種行為？—海洋花園一名憤怒人

親愛的憤怒人：

狗咀嚼東西的原因有很多。小狗咀嚼以緩解牠們的牙齒生長，老年犬則本能地咀嚼以保持良好的口腔健康。狗可因為無聊、孤獨、焦慮、和飢餓而咀嚼。最好給你的狗買牠自己咀嚼的玩具以及買可食用的咀嚼玩具，在牠獨處時用來逗牠，並當你在家時確保給他足夠的體育運動和精神刺激。暫時放好任何你不想被牠咀嚼到的寶貴東西，直到牠學會了什麼是可以及不可以做的事。如果你看到牠咀嚼不應該咀嚼的東西，冷靜地說“不”並從牠的嘴裡輕輕地把東西取出來，給牠可咀嚼的代替品。

該法案的最新版本（旨在防止動物被殺害和虐待，及如何保護牠們）將對動物虐待者處以

高達10萬澳門元罰款，而非先前提出的2,000澳門元。預計將很快實施的這項法律（有更嚴厲的懲罰）聽起來不錯，但本地動物保護團體卻有疑慮，特別是因為該法案不承認虐待動物是一種犯罪行為。澳門保護遺棄動物協會（AAPAM）副主席劉佩珍說，她不知道為什麼政府突然加快程序步伐，僅有罰款不足以阻止人們虐待動物。澳門民政總署（IACM）自2007年以來一直處理動物保護法案，期間僅曾諮詢AAPAM一次。劉指出：“他們沒有就最新版本與我們聯繫，所以我們不知道它涵蓋了什麼或不包括什麼。一點細節都沒有。”雖然對有關該法案內容所知甚少（除了罰款被提高到10萬澳門元外），劉可能已預視到該法律的無用。劉說：“该法律不會有很大的幫助”，她所属協會已經舉行三次抗議活動要求一部動物保護法——對虐待動物者判以監禁，類似香港的一樣。“100,000澳門元對有錢人根本不是甚麼問題，[該法案]實際暗示有銭人殺動物沒關係，”劉說：“只有判以刑事指控才可有效，因為無論你是貧窮還是富有，你將有一個虐待動物的犯罪記錄。” 劉問：“該局表示他們排除了刑事指控，因為這樣的控罪使市民難以接受。這怎麼能是個理由？” 她補充說當局有這種心態，她懷疑該法律將如何能有效執行。“如果讓警方實施該法律可能更好，因為至少在他們抓住嫌疑人時必須宣佈有關細節，”劉說：“說實話，誰能記得澳門民政總署舉報虐待事件的熱線？只撥打999豈不是更容易嗎？”

經過五年時間起草一項動物保護法後，政府突然似乎想快速在今年內將該法案頒布成法律。

動物權益保護法案

不夠強硬：團體希望動物罪犯入獄


the latest version of the bill, which aims to prevent animals from being killed and abused

and how to protect them, will slap animal abusers with fines reaching 100,000 patacas instead of the previously proposed 2,000 patacas.A law expected to be implemented soon with a heftier penalty sounds good all round, but local animal protection groups have doubts, especially since the bill does not recognize animal abuse as a crime.Abandoned Animals protection Association of macau (AApAm) vice president Lau pui Chan said she does not know why the government is speeding up the process all of a sudden and why only a fine was not enough to deter people from abusing animals.The Civic and municipal Affairs bureau (IACm) has been handling the animal protection bill since 2007 and has only consulted AApAm once about it.“They haven’t contacted us about the latest version so we don’t know what it covers or what it does not cover. There are no details at all,” Lau pointed out.Although little is known about the content of the bill, apart from the fact that it has raised the fine to 100,000 patacas, Lau could already see the uselessness of the law. “The law won’t help a lot,” said Lau, whose association has staged three protests to call for an animal protection law where animal abusers face a jail term, similar to the one in Hong Kong.“100,000 patacas means nothing to rich people, [the bill] is simply suggesting that it’s okay for rich people to kill animals,” Lau said, “This will only work if there is a criminal charge because then whether you are rich or not, you will have a criminal record for abusing an animal.”“The bureau said they ruled out a criminal charge because it’s something that citizens will find hard to accept. How can this be a reason?” Lau asked, adding that with this mindset, she doubts how the law will be implemented effectively.“It’s probably better if the police are implementing it because at least they have to announce the details when they catch a suspect,” Lau said, “And to be honest, who remembers IACm’s hotline to report an abuse incident? Wouldn’t it be easier to just dial 999?”

After five years of drafting an animal protection law, the government suddenly seems to be on a fast track to get the bill promulgated into law within the year

此前媒體援引香港漁農自然護理署的數字表明，今年首8個月，香港進口110只格力犬，比去年同期下降56％。澳門愛護動物協會（Anima）總裁Albano Martins說：“我相信，澳門行政長官將不再為澳門逸園賽狗會（Canidrome）的牌照續約。”Martins指出：“現在我擔心的是，當狗會[賽道]關閉時，他們的狗的去向，”他擔心這些賽狗將被捕殺。上述報告指出，去年逸園賽狗會的所有800隻格力犬通過香港從澳大利亞進口，其中共有378隻被進口澳門，以取代因被認為在比賽中無利可圖而被捕殺的狗隻。“我相信低賽狗進口率是澳大利亞政府強制實行的，因他們擔心反對澳門賽狗的國際運動，” Martins說，“他們不覺得他們的狗在澳門得到保護。”近年來逸園賽狗會（亞洲唯一仍在經營狗賽道的公司）一直受到大量批評，因他們殺害表現欠佳的賽狗，並且沒有努力為他們的格力犬重新安家，而是在格力犬被迫“退休”後捕殺牠們。這個問題已經引起國際動物福利團體的注意，他們已向政府竭力要求終止賽狗。Martins說，這些動物福利團體將再組織一場新運動，向行政長官崔世安請願，一勞永逸地關閉逸園賽狗會。Martins 稱：“我一直建議政府把逸園賽狗會改建成有地下停車場的公園（因為該地區人口稠密），或使用該地建設公共房屋——每個人都樂見其成。”

進口澳門賽狗的數量不斷減少可能是一個跡象——本地賽狗牌照於2015年到期後，其運營將停止。

Hopes to end dog-racing rise as greyhound imports dip格力犬進口下降終止賽狗有望

Hopes to end dog-racing rise as greyhound imports dip格力犬進口下降終止賽狗有望

previous media reports, citing figures from Hong Kong’s Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, showed that 110 greyhounds were imported to Hong Kong in the first eight months of this year, which represents a 56 percent drop from the same period last year.“I’m confident that the Chief executive will not renew the Canidrome’s licence,” animal protection society Anima’s president Albano martins said."my concern now is where the dogs will go when it [racing track] shuts down," martins pointed out, fearing that the racing dogs will be culled.The report states that all 800 greyhounds at the Canidrome are imported from Australia through Hong Kong and a total of 378 dogs were imported to macau last year to replace dogs that had been put to death because they were deemed unprofitable to race.“I believe the low import rate is imposed by the Australian government because they are concerned with the international campaign against macau’s dog racing,” martins said, “They don’t feel that their dogs in macau are being protected.”The Canidrome, which is the only racing track still in operation in Asia, has been under a great deal of criticism in recent years for killing under-performing dogs and for making no effort to rehome their greyhounds but instead terminating them when they are forced to "retire".The issue has caught the attention of international animal welfare groups that have pressed the government to end dog racing.martins said that these animal welfare groups will again be organising a new campaign, petitioning Chief executive Fernando Chui Sai on to close down the Canidrome once and for all."I've always suggested the government turn the Canidrome into a park, with an underground car park because that area is so densely populated, or use the space for public housing, which everyone would prefer," martins said.

The dwindling number of greyhounds being imported to Macau could be a sign that local dog racing will cease operations when its licence runs out in 2015

為何澳門愛護動物協會希望關閉逸園賽狗

我們原則上接受人們觀看如此漂亮的動物比拚速度，或者格力犬們都很享受跟同伴一起追趕

那隻小白免。但現實是，澳門逸園賽狗並不是想像般美好，事實上供格力犬比賽的跑道已經非常殘舊，犬

隻在此賽道奔跑是十分危險，而且很容易受傷或發生意外。

根據澳門愛護動物協會對上一次收集的數據所得，現時有545隻格力犬在逸園狗房，對比

2011年有70 0隻格力犬相比，證明有很多犬隻己被人道毀滅，很遺憾逸園不提供領養計

劃。M.Y.C即逸園本身擁有37.8%的犬隻，而2011年只有13.6%，當更多犬隻是狗場名下擁有

而更少人願意成為格力犬主人的時候，證明賽狗項目並不是想像般流行。令一個原因就是

比賽獎金十分少，除特別賽事外，以第一班長途(595碼)的比賽為例，冠軍獎金只有澳門幣

3,300。賽狗項目的收入也持續減少，由2010年有3億4千萬減少至2012年二億五百萬。截至2013上

半年，收入退至只有澳門幣九千一百萬！

逸園狗會目前有545隻格力犬，共有288隻未能參加比賽的(127隻休息，27隻傷病，18隻建議

退役，116隻受傷)。簡單來說有53%的格力犬是不能作賽。

逸園一星期舉行五日賽事，而每晚有18場比賽。只要簡單的數學基礎都知道如此頻繁的賽

程，只會令犬隻”疲於奔命”，正好解釋為何犬隻會有如此高的受傷率。

當比賽賽程不變而越來越少犬隻適合比賽，最終只會做成更少狗隻可以比賽，有媒體透露澳

洲方面已經把出口到澳門的格力犬數量減少三分之二。

殺害那些年壯而健康的犬隻是不能接受，國際組織已經對此十分憤怒，預期賽狗項目將會是

夕陽行業。我們應該對生活在現代及文明的澳門感到自豪。同時，澳門社區需要更多空間，居住筷子基

的居民極需要公共設施例如公眾停車場，甚至可改作興建經屋令市民不用承受高昂租金之

苦。以上都是我們愛護動物協會希望逸園狗場關閉的原因，你呢？

公開信Open Letter

In light of the concern expressed by both people in Macau and abroad in relation to the activities at the Canidrome, an open letter has been addressed to the Chief Executive, Chui Sai On, strongly urging that the matter be addressed. Due to the relevant content to our readers, Pets & Hugs reproduces it here.

鑑於澳門及海外公眾表達了對澳門逸園賽狗會（Canidrome）活動的關切，他們已經向行政長官崔世安發出一封公開信，強烈要求解決此事。鑑於《寶貝寵物》內容讀者的利益，本雜誌抄錄如下。


Dear Dr. Chui Sai on,

We are writing to request your urgent attention to the plight of greyhounds at macau’s dog track, the Canidrome. Despite the respectful entreaties of ANImA Director, Albano martins, and in complete disregard of international calls for change, the track owners have refused to make even the most basic improvements to the treatment of the dogs. Letters from the thirteen-member Asia for Animals Coalition, which includes the Society for the prevention of Cruelty to Animals Hong Kong, IFAW, rSpCA and Humane Society International, as well as separate requests from GreY2K USA Worldwide and Animals Australia have all been ignored. In fact, a visiting representative from the rSpCA asked if he could be shown the kennels earlier this year, so as to advise on better humane standards, but he was summarily refused. both the macau Times and the South China morning post reported in 2011 that dogs are killed at the rate of one per day, with new dogs arriving monthly from Australia. Figures recently obtained by the SpCA Hong Kong show the number of imports ranged from 290 in 2010, 348 in 2011, and 378 in 2012. While early indications predict a decline for 2013, this does not change the fact that no dog survives the Canidrome. once their usefulness subsides to injury or age, there is no safety net, no adoption program, and no way out for these dogs. over twenty-eight thousand people to date have petitioned for the release of one dog in particular, a red brindle-colored greyhound named brooklyn. You may read this petition and a January 2012 report on the Canidrome at rescuebrooklyn.org.The decline of greyhound racing has been ongoing for years, and media outlets have long reported the spiraling collapse of this industry. The most recent U.S. figures available from the Association of racing Commissioners International show that gambling on greyhounds has declined by 67% in the years 2001-2011. This includes both gambling on live racing and simulcast betting, where bettors wager remotely on dog races taking place elsewhere. Not only have humane concerns come to the forefront, but competition from other forms of gambling has forced tracks to close. Since 2001, twenty-seven American tracks have shut down operations, cutting the U.S. industry, the birth ground of greyhound racing, in half.Similarly, according to the economist, the United Kingdom has suffered a 20% decline on dog race bookmakers bets just since 2008. A member of the House of Lords, Lord Lipsey, described the industry as spiraling downward since the 1960’s. equally, the Irish Greyhound board has relied on government subsidies to continue. These totaled more than €l1m each year in the last three years, according to Houses of the oireachtas and the Irish Greyhound board itself. In conclusion, it is our understanding that the Canidrome has not only been evasive with animal advocates, but has resisted government directives as well. The arrogance of the track owners, coupled with the continuing killing of greyhounds at the facility, strongly indicate that it is time for a change. We are grateful for the news that there may be an inquiry into humane conditions, but any delay in closing the Canidrome will only cause more greyhounds to suffer needlessly. perhaps the Canidrome can follow in the footsteps of Wimbledon, one of London’s original dog tracks? The facility has recently been sold and its land will soon become a place for parking, housing and community recreational space. We ask that you intervene in this situation, rescind the Canidrome’s racing license, and mandate the end of dog racing in macau for good.

respectfully,

Christine A. Dorchak, esq.president, GreY2K USA Worldwide

動物王國是一個巨大世界，充滿了大自然給予的所有美麗色彩和形狀，魔幻般地變出如下圖景：彩

虹色優美的小鳥飛翔在天空，微笑的海豚在海洋中暢泳，毛茸茸的小貓玩著自己的尾巴。然而，這個巨大的王國也是很多很多我們從來沒有聽說過的動物的家。個中原因——說得微妙一點——因为牠們不是很可愛。牠們甚至不好看。我們不要拐彎抹角，牠們是醜陋的。可是，牠們對萬物相連世界的自然秩序的微妙平衡，也是為珍貴和必要的。無論牠們可能看起來是多麼可怕或怪誕，牠們的每一個都是一條生命，因此而值得我們尊重和關懷。鑑於這些在美學觀點上受到挑戰動物所處的困境，一個协会（名为“醜陋動物保護協會”）在英國創立，如他們的網站所稱，因為“熊貓得到太多的關注。”該協會他們的目的是鼓勵人們參與保育項目，以及挑戰公眾對於瀕臨絕種動物（如大熊貓和紅松鼠）的喜愛。該協會以一個科學主題的喜劇之夜開始，最近又設計了一個尋找吉祥物（“一個媲美許多慈善機構和組織的可愛徽章的吉祥物”）的公共活動。生物學家兼電視節目主持人Simon Watt（醜陋動物保護協會會長）表示，他希望該活動會引大家關注這些怪異和奇妙動物面臨的威脅。9月12日，他在紐卡斯爾英國科學節宣布獲勝者。看起來脾氣暴躁、膠狀的水滴魚（Blobfish）贏得公眾投票，成為“醜陋動物保護協會”的官方吉祥物，此魚因此獲得世界上最醜動物的非官方頭銜。讓我們來仔細看看“醜陋動物保護協會”的新面孔——水滴魚。因贏得近10,000票，牠肯定是非常醜陋。水滴魚不是一個條很長的魚（通常短於30厘米），牠棲

息於澳大利亞大陸和塔斯曼尼亞島離岸的深海，以及新西蘭海域。在水深600至1200米之間，牠們居住環境的壓力比海平面高出幾十倍。為了保持浮力，水滴魚基本上是一團膠狀的物質，密度略小於水，这可讓牠無需花費太多精力游泳而浮在海底之上。科學家們認為牠無需獵食，反而是張開嘴巴，吸入漂過的微小有機顆粒。水滴魚雖然本身不能食用，但時常成為海底拖網的誤捕漁獲。科學家們現在擔心因為深海拖網的關系，水滴魚可能成為瀕臨絕種動物。

《寳貝寵物》關愛所有的動物，從可愛的到那些只有媽媽才會愛的。現在開始的每一期雜誌我們將特別介紹“醜陋動物保護協會”（一個旨在引起大家對那些受威脅動物關注的組織）一位成員。

Animal Preservation

Let’s Hear it for the Ugly Ones!

動物保育

讓我們來聽醜陋動物說！

52 寶貝寵物 • 2013年11月

the animal kingdom is a vast one, full of all the beautiful

colours and shapes mother nature has to offer, conjuring up images of rainbow coloured graceful birds in the sky, smiling dolphins swimming in the oceans, and fluffy kittens playing with their tails.However this vast kingdom is also home to many, many more

creatures that we have never heard of. And that is because- to put it delicately- they are not cute. They are not even nice looking. Let’s not beat around the bush. They are ugly. However, they are also precious and essential to the delicate balance that is the natural order of the world, where everything

is connected. And no matter how scary or grotesque looking they may be, each and every one of them is a life, and therefore deserving of our respect and care.In light of the plight of these aesthetically challenged creatures, a society was created in the UK, The Ugly Animal preservation Society, because, as their website states, “The panda gets too much attention.”Their aim is to encourage people to get involved in conservation projects, as well as challenging the public’s love affair with crowd-pleasing endangered animals, such as the panda and the red squirrel.


Pets&Hugs loves all animals; from the cute ones, to those with faces only a mother could love. In every issue we’ll be highlighting a member of The Ugly Animal Preservation Society, a project that draws attention to these threatened creatures

The society began as a science-themed comedy night and recently devised a public campaign to find a mascot, “one to rival the cute and cuddly emblems of many charities and organisations.”biologist and Tv presenter Simon Watt, president of the Ugly Animal preservation Society, said he hoped the campaign would draw attention to the threats facing these weird and wonderful creatures.on the 12th of September he announced the winner at the british Science Festival in Newcastle. The grumpy-looking, gelatinous blobfish won the public vote to become the official mascot of The Ugly Animal preservation Society, giving it the unofficial title of world's ugliest animal.Let’s take a closer look at the new face of The Ugly Animal preservation Society, the blobfish. Winning by almost 10,000 votes, that certainly is a whole lot of ugly.Not a terribly long fish, typically shorter than 30 cm, the blobfish inhabits the deep waters off the coasts of mainland Australia and Tasmania, as well as the waters of New Zealand. At depths between 600 and 1,200 m, they live in conditions where the pressure is several dozen times higher than at sea level. In order to maintain buoyancy, the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water, allowing it to float above the sea floor without having to expend too much energy on swimming. Scientists believe that the fish does not hunt; instead, it opens its mouth and sucks in little organic particles that drift by.blobfish are often caught as bycatch in bottom trawling nets, although it is inedible itself. Scientists now fear the blobfish could become an endangered species because of deep-ocean trawling.

他們希望得到你的關愛。你準備好關愛他們了嗎？

領養動物是幫助牠們的最好方法。這

是一種愛的表現，但亦表現了責任。

除非你確信你會信守承諾，否則不要

冒然行事。領養一隻動物即假定牠會

是家庭的一員。牠會是非常特殊的家

庭成員，因為牠對你的愛永遠是無條

件的。

Adopting an animal is the best way to help them. A gesture of love, but also of responsibility. Please do not undertake this unless you’re sure you want this commitment. To adopt an animal is to assume that they will be a member of the family. And a very special member, because they will always have unconditional love for you.

They want to love you. Are you ready to love them?Adopt a pet

Why Anima wants the Canídrome to be closed

In principle, we could accept that people enjoy seeing beautiful greyhounds racing. maybe the animals could also enjoy friendly competition for the rabbit.Yes, maybe. but the situation at macau Canídrome is not as beautiful as that.The way the business is conducted constitutes a risky sport for these animals, especially on a very old track.The latest figures collected from Anima show that today Canídrome has 545 animals in its kennels (a significant reduction from 2011 when the track had 700 animals, and also proof that many, many animals really are killed as Canídrome does not have an adoption policy). mYC, which is Canidrome itself, owns 37.8 per cent of those animals as compared with 13.6 per cent in 2011. This may mean that the competition is not as popular as it seems.Dogs are increasingly being concentrated in the hands of the track owner, possibly because less and less greyhound owners want to engage in such business. Another reason is that the prize is very small. Apart from special trophy racing, the highest prize for 1st Class long run racing (595 yards) is only 3.300 patacas.The volume of income continuously went down from 340 million in 2010 to 205 million in 2012. Figures from this year may confirm another decrease. In the first semester of 2013 their income was only 91 million patacas!of those 545 animals that are now in Canidrome, 288 are out of competition (127 are in rest, 27 sick, 18 recommended for retirement and 116 are injured). In short, 53 per cent of them are not able to compete.Canídrome operates five days a week with 18 races a day. We don’t need to be good at mathematics to understand that this number of sessions makes the animals very tired, and it also partly explains the high rate of injuries on that old track.With so few animals racing and still operating the same number of sessions, less animals will be able to compete. The figures provided by the media also show that the number of exports from Australia to macau is now down to 1/3rd, or 10 dogs per month!This is the decline of a business that is making the international community very angry. Killing so many young and healthy animals is not acceptable!macau should be a place where we all feel proud to live in a modern and civilized corner of China. macau needs space for its community, a central park for the people who live in Fai Chi Kei, car park facilities, or alternatively more public housing for those who cannot afford to pay the current high market rental prices. Those are the reasons why we, Anima, want the Canidrome to close. What about you?

愛護動物協會爲何呼籲關閉逸園？

原則上，我們能接受人們享受觀賞灰狗競賽時的動人跑姿。也許，競賽場上的犬隻也享受追逐電兔的友誼比賽。也許。但澳門逸園的現實，却幷非如想像中那麽動人。對於這些狗隻，逸園賽狗這門生意的運作，對狗隻而言，是危險運動，特別是在非常老舊的賽道。根據愛護動物協會的最新數字，目前逸園狗房共有545頭賽狗（大大低於2011 年的700頭。由於逸園沒有領養政策、不設相關安排，數字印證了不少犬隻其實已被人道毀滅）。目前，逸園擁有登記賽狗中的37.8%，而2011年這數字是13.6%，這或許可以說明賽狗幷不如表面看那麽受歡迎。狗隻歸屬權越來越集中在賽狗場場主手上，可能與市民越來越少參與賽狗博彩有關。另一原因是獎金不吸引——除特別獎杯賽外，一級長程賽事（595碼）的最高獎金，也只有3,300元（澳門元，下同）。逸園賽事的投注額由2010年的3.4億元，持續下跌至2012年的2.05億元。預料今年年終的數字，將確認這跌勢 ——2013年上半年的投注額，僅錄得9,100萬元！目前在逸園狗房飼養的545頭犬隻中，有288頭暫不編入賽程表（其中127頭正常休息、27頭病倒、18頭被建議退役、116頭正在療傷）。換言之，狗房有53%的狗隻不能參賽。逸園賽狗場每周安排五天賽事，每天18場。我們不用精通數學，也可想像到：如此頻密的賽事，讓狗隻非常疲累，這也部分地解釋了爲什麽在老賽場比賽的受傷率那麽高。能出賽的狗少了，比賽場數却維持不變，結果是：可以出賽的狗隻越來越少。媒體提供的數字又顯示，每月從澳大利亞進口的補充狗隻，只有十頭，是已往的三分之一。這是一個沒落的行業。這個行業惹惱了國際社會——這麽多年幼而健康的狗隻遭濫殺，絕對不能接受！澳門應該是中國領土上，現代而文明的一隅，人們會因身居其中而感到自豪。澳門社區需要空間。筷子基社區的居民需要一個社區中央公園、停車設施；或者，爲那些無力支付高昂租金的市民，興建更多公共住房。這就是爲何我們——愛護動物協會——呼籲關閉逸園的理據。你們說呢？

有組織參觀

2013年前三季度對Anima的有組織參觀增長90.6％。截至2013年9月底，參觀Anima人數達3,765人，相比去年同期的1,960人，今年參觀人數大增90.6％。這個數字高於2012年全年參觀人數（2,972人）20.6％。學校、企業團體、朋友和家人群體不斷前往Anima與動物在戶外玩耍，同時他們帶來食品和捐款。現在，越來越多的志願者定期造訪Anima。

領養趨勢增長

澳門愛護動物協會（Anima）2013年1月至9月底的貓狗統計數字突顯了澳門社會為保護和拯救動物作出的努力。在此9個月期間，124隻狗及162隻貓已獲救。平均每月9條狗被領養，整個9個月期間73條狗被領養。同期平均每月7隻貓被領養，9個月期間共有60隻貓被領養。出/入比率分別為0.75和0.74。不幸的是，這些數字仍與Anima2.0的終極目標比率相差甚遠。

Adoption trend growingAnima’s statistics on their cats and dogs from January 2013 to the end of September highlight the efforts being made by the society to protect and save the animals of macau. over the nine month period, 124 dogs and 162 cats have been rescued. An average of nine dogs were adopted every month with a total of 73 for the entire period. Cats’ monthly average is seven, with a total of 60 adoptions. The out/ in ratio was 0.75 and 0.74 respectively. The figures are, unfortunately, still far from Anima’s ultimate goal of a 2.0 ratio.

澳門愛護動物協會 Anima

Visits get organizedorganized visits to Anima increased 90.6% in the first three quarters of 2013. by the end of September 2013, the number of visitors to Anima was 3,765, which is a huge increase of 90.6 percent compared to the same period last year of 1,960. These figures are 20.6 percent higher than all visits combined in 2012, at 2,972. Schools, corporate groups, groups of friends and families continue to visit Anima to play with animals outdoors, to bring food and donations. more and more volunteers are now visiting Anima in a systematic way.

第4、5、6天—控制時段雖然仍處於室內，輕輕拿著貓帶並開始與你的貓漫步，但不要拉！如果他不來，給他一點小吃，然後等待他來找你。如果他還是不動，把小吃放在他面前，當他吃的時候，你走到貓帶的末端。當他追上你時，稱讚並用小吃獎勵他。一次又一次重複上術動作。如果你的貓試圖走向另一個方向，應用溫和但堅定的力度拉緊貓帶。但不要猛拉或用力拉扯，要耐心等待。當你的貓終於走向你時，放鬆貓帶鼓動他，你也可以再給他小吃以示獎勵。重複此步驟，直到你有信心，可以在任何方向指揮你的貓。

第7天—在路上表演的時候在室內將貓套和貓帶套上你的貓並帶他出外。他很可能會緊張，所以要在一個安靜、隱蔽地點開始，也許在公園裏。起初只是牽著你的貓坐下，當他開始向周圍嗅和探索，便跟著他，當他放鬆而且準備好繼續前進的時候，你便可與你的新步行夥伴向前邁進。

在澳門公寓內過著奢華的生活，對今天的貓似乎是一種豪華選擇，但像人類一樣，一個安全環境中的清新空氣有利於健康和幸福。與一般看法相反，只要很有耐心、運氣和更多耐心，你可以訓練你的貓，帶著貓帶和貓套與你去公園散步。

Living the high life in macau apartments seems a luxurious option for cats these days, but like humans, fresh air in a safe environment, is good for health and happiness. Contrary to popular belief, and with a lot of patience, luck, and more patience, you can train your cat to walk on a harness and leash when you go to the park.

Day 1 – Get Suppliespurchase a harness designed for cats from a pet store. The leash attachment should be at the back of the harness, not at the neck. purchase treats for rewarding each bit of progress.

Day 2 – Get your cat used to the harnessHold the harness and let your cat sniff it. Try putting the harness on your cat and then offer a treat and a lot of praise.Note: adjust the fit of the harness so you can slip two fingers between the harness and your cat’s body.


Days 3 & 4 – Roaming around indoorsonly proceed to this step if your cat is comfortable wearing the harness. Attach the leash to the harness and let it drag behind. Follow your cat around your home while he wears the harness and drags the leash. Do not direct him anywhere, just follow and watch closely to ensure he doesn’t get tangled or stuck on anything.

Days 4, 5, & 6 – Time for controlWhile still indoors, hold the leash gently and start walking with your cat, but don’t pull! If he doesn’t come, offer a treat and wait for him to come to you. If he still doesn’t move, drop a treat in front of him and while he eats it, walk to the end of the leash. When he catches up to you, praise and reward him with another treat. repeat this again and again. Apply gentle but firm pressure on the leash if your cat tries to go in another direction. be sure not to yank or pull hard, just wait patiently. When your cat finally moves towards you, he’ll be rewarded by looser tension on the leash, and you can reward him with another treat.repeat this step until you’re confident that you can direct your cat in any direction.

Day 7 – Time to take the show on the roadput the harness and leash on your cat indoors and carry him outside. He’ll most likely be nervous, so start in a quiet, sheltered spot, in a park perhaps, and just sit with your cat on the leash at first. Start following him as he starts sniffing and exploring and move further with your new walking buddy when he’s relaxed and ready to move on.

寵物訓練Pet Training

補充提示

1.在你們到外面逛之前，確保你的貓已接種最新疫苗。2.嘗試設定一個在每天特定時間、有規律性的散步時間表。3.當你的貓哭鬧或纏著你時，不要帶他出去。不理睬他，直到他安靜下來，然後以散步獎勵他的好表現。4.不要用貓帶把你的貓綁於戶外的東西，然後離開他，哪怕只有片刻。他可能會被貓帶纏住而弄傷自己；若受到狗或其他動物襲擊，你的貓將無法逃脫。

Additional tips

1. ensure your cat is up to date on his vaccinations before you go outside.

2. Try setting a regular walking schedule at a certain time of day.

3. Never take him out when he’s crying or pestering you. Ignore him until he’s quiet, then reward his good behavior with a walk.

4. Do not tie your cat’s leash to something outside and leave him, even if only for a moment. Your cat might get tangled in the leash and hurt himself, and he won’t be able to escape if a dog or other animal approaches.

第1天—事前準備到寵物店購買專為貓設計的貓套。附屬的貓帶應該扣在貓套後面，而不是扣在貓頸上。購買些小吃以便獎勵每一點進步。

第2天—讓你的貓習慣貓套拿起貓套讓你的貓嗅嗅它。嘗試把貓套套在你的貓身上，然後獎牠一點小吃並大大讚賞。注意：調整貓套鬆緊度，調整到讓你兩隻手指可塞進貓套與貓身之間。

第3、4天—室內漫步當你的貓可以舒適地帶上貓套時，才可進行這一步。把貓帶扣上貓套，並讓貓帶垂在貓身後面。當貓穿上貓套而貓帶垂在他身後時，跟著你的貓在家中走動。不要指令他到任何地方，只跟隨他並細心觀察，以確保他不被貓帶纏住或被東西卡住。
