michaeltheR Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Has anyone ever played with the dogs and cats at Chatuchak? Seems like a very tempting thing to do. Do they allow one to play with the pets or do they make you buy the right away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phuturatica Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Quite a random question... If you're interested in buying the animal then maybe... But most of the poor things are doped up on some kind of medication to make them mong out slightly so they're not like normal little playful animals I doubt the animal would be very responsive if you did play with them. However if you just want to go to Chatuchak to play with animals then they'll probably shoo you away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisinth Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Change the thoght process slightly. If you were the owner of a pet shop and some weirdo came in off the street and started touching up your merchandise with no thought of buying, what would you do?

DLock Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Why yes, you most certainly can. Chatuchak pet market is often considered Bangkok's premier petting zoo for an exciting day out for the entire family. Please be aware that you will need to obtain a tetanus shot, rabies shot, flea and tick dusting and bring some antibacterial wipes and anti venom if you plan to play with the King Cobras. Tell us how it went. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Yes you can play with them, if you show interest then they let you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geriatrickid Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Better yet, avoid the place. The animals are bred under horrific and cruel conditions. One of the reasons I started to lose interest in my ex is that after all the discussions we had on the need for responsible animal husbandry, and my donations to animal rescue organizations she went and bought a dog from one of those disgusting vile merchants. I started to loather her after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 If you play with XXX's critters and pick up parvo virus on your hands, then go play with YYY's critters, then YYY's critters may get whatever you pass on from XXX's critters. As tempting as they all are, it's not a good idea to play with more than one animal there, and none of the owners of the shops have a clue how many you've played with, or what diseases you're harboring on your hands. Since there's a wide disparity between the good vendors and the others in the quality and cleanliness, their rules about not touching their critters make sense.

Songhua Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 They're only pets after you've bought them. Until then they're animals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamhar Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 (edited) "Do They Allow You To Play With The Pets At Chatuchak?" No, Please leave your kids at home. ok That was a reach... so sue me. On a helpful note, I have played with the pets for a minute or 2 in the past. I've never tried to push it past that. Here is a map if that helps anyone. www.chatuchak.org/map/chattuchakmap.jpg Edited February 9, 2013 by jamhar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nana Cowboy Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 to the OP. go visit 7/11s around Bangkok. Many have a dog that hangs out in front as passers by give food and such. There used to be a very nice pooch outside the store on Suk soi 6. he was very nice and I used to bring him cold cuts and he loved me for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kawaiimomo Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 OP, why you just don't change the place you are living in? Wanting to own cats was my main reason to leave the apartment i was living in and moving to a townhouse. Even if I had could have them in the apartment, what a difference looking how much they enjoy staying in the patio! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tw25rw Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Do they really have king cobras? Maybe it's a silly question, but it wouldn't surprise me that much if they did. As for petting the puppies, I know it's nice, but the animals there must be pretty stressed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for petting the puppies, I know it's nice, but the animals there must be pretty stressed already. Yes, they have King Cobras and many other snakes and reptiles. Try taking a photo and they get really pissed....not the snakes, but the shop Owner guy. I was going to buy 2 small Crocodiles for my lake because I'm stupid like that. It would have been wicked cool. But small Crocodiles will eventually become big Crocodiles so in a moment of clarity I passed. Probably a smart decision.
