The Incident
A disturbing incident at a temple in Jiangsu, China, has sparked widespread outrage on social media. A woman, who volunteers at the temple, shared a story about a shocking encounter with a working woman (OL) who abandoned her cat there. The volunteer, known as "Gugu" on social media platform Xiaohongshu, recounted how she saw an OL carrying a cardboard box into the temple. Initially, she thought the woman had found a stray cat and needed help. However, upon inquiry, she was shocked to discover that the cat was the woman's own pet, which she no longer wanted to care for. The woman had brought the cat to the temple while her child was at school, intending to abandon it.
Reaction and Aftermath
The volunteer was left speechless by the woman's actions. Fearing the cat might be taken away and discarded elsewhere, she decided to keep the cat at the temple. She posted a video online, hoping someone would adopt the abandoned pet and provide it with a happy home.
Public Response
The post generated a massive response from netizens, who condemned the woman's behavior. Comments included harsh criticism, such as calling her a "garbage parent" and wishing her ill in her old age. Some speculated that the cat might have been abandoned due to age or illness, and the owner did not want to bear the medical expenses, especially not in front of her child.
This incident highlights the growing concern about animal abandonment and the need for responsible pet ownership.
