With just 12 days left until the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's a great time to remind everyone that this year's celebration falls on September 17th. This period is the perfect opportunity for moon-gazing, and various topics related to the festival are trending online.
While today's discussion isn't focused on food, the trend of taking "full moon" photos of pets is sure to become popular this September. Achieving this is quite simple; all you need is a toilet paper roll and your furry friend. Typically, we use tissue paper that comes in a pull-out format, but the occasions for using roll-style toilet paper are limited to places like restaurants or office buildings. Once used, the cardboard core often ends up in the trash, making it somewhat challenging to obtain.
We recommend using Japanese roll-style toilet paper cores because they can be applied in many situations. For example, one fun method involves using the core to frame your pet for a photo. To capture a great shot, hold the toilet paper core up to your pet's face; if they stay still, you can focus your camera on the center point of the core. If successful, you'll create a charming photo that resembles a full moon—only this moon is your pet's adorable face! This concept works for both cats and dogs.
However, getting your pet to stay still can be tricky, so be prepared for some trial and error. If you manage to get a good shot, it will look like a beautiful full moon in the night sky with your pet's face shining brightly. If the angle isn't quite right, you might end up with less desirable results, which underscores the importance of patience for pet owners.
It's also worth noting that pets have their own opinions about toilet paper rolls. They likely won't understand you're trying to take a photo; cat owners may find their pets resistant to cooperation. On the other hand, dog owners often report that their dogs see the toilet paper roll as a toy and may chew it up as soon as they get their paws on it.
