Since pregnancy, Aimee Chan (陳茵媺) decided to part ways with her three beloved pet cats. Afraid that they will trigger allergies during the sensitive time period, she sent the cats away to live with her friends instead. But after Aimee shared the information at a recent function, netizens who clearly disapprove of Aimee’s decision to abandon her cats began to rant on her Weibo profile. Aimee has lived with her three cats for six years. When she was pregnant with baby Aiden Joshua Chan (陳梓燁), she decided to give away her pets to ensure health and safety. After giving birth, Aimee had no plans to retrieve the cats since she was afraid that her son would develop asthma from breathing in cat hair. She shared the cats are currently living very happily with their new owner, and that she may bring them back when Aiden grows older. However, many netizens believe it is simply unfair to bring back the cats after a few years of abandonment. They claimed Aimee only wanted to get rid of her pets and used her baby as an excuse. One netizen accused angrily, “Even such a beautiful excuse to abandon the cats cannot hide your evil irresponsibility towards the small animals.” Another netizen was quick to add that Aimee’s action was plain selfish. Aimee was soon compared to Mimi Lo (羅敏莊), who has seven cats at home. In contrast, Mimi continued to take care of her cats even after giving birth to her baby daughter in 2012. But while many netizens blamed Aimee for her decision, some left comments of support and continues to believe she is a true cat-lover. Creds: East Week
people are just idiots ... kids' health always triumph pets. At least she didn't just open the windows and let the cats jump out. She is being responsible parent and a responsible pet owner. What more does people want?
Chinese are ridiculous, keeping pets away causes the kid to have allergies because their body don't adapt to the animals. Them gui low lets the pets even lick the kid and it's fine. Stupid chinese superstition
