More PPAR Cats of the Month: Candido and Persio
Persio and Candido were rescued on May 12, 2011 from Suzhou Lu, with no food, shelter, or protection, and Persio was already sick.

Shanghai pet laws cause owners to bum rush vets
Shanghai is not known for its dog-friendliness. There is neither enough green patches for them nor do they get much love from the Shanghainese government, who we've known to create ridiculous rules. But at least it's become more affordable to legally own a dog - even if you're now only able to own one. The new law instructs that dogs must be chipped and vaccinated before dog owners can register their pups, and that the only way to grandfather in your second dog is by registering them - for these reason, hundreds of people were storming Shanghais vets yesterday.

Video: Pet puppy helps Chinese family with all their chores -- can you train your dog to do this?
This could possibly be the best dog in the world. Were you feeling proud that your pup could follow commands like "sit", "stay" and "roll over"? Pffffttt, this Chinese family has trained their dog (looks like a Chow Chow to us) to help out with all their chores--including pushing the baby stroller, carrying the shopping basket on trips to the market, and lifting and moving wooden chairs and other things about for the owner.
Live fish and turtles sealed inside plastic key chains
According to Global Times, the sale of small live-animal key chains is on the rise in China. Turtles and fish are being sealed up in airtight plastic containers and sold as trinkets to shoppers with growing popularity. Venders claim the water inside the pouch is nutrient-rich, and that the animals can live for a month or longer. Sadly, we've heard this total nonsense before. Back in 2008, Olympics paraphernalia hawkers delved into pocket-sized animal abuse as well. Worst of all, the practice remains completely legal in China.
World's priciest dog is a 10 million RMB ($1.5 million) Tibetan mastiff
We already know how insanely popular Tibetan mastiffs are with the fabulously wealthy in China (among other ridiculous things.) Well, last week in Qingdao a Shanxi coal baron paid 10 million RMB (about $1.5 million) for an 11-month-old red Tibetan mastiff named Sensation (轰动, Hōngdòng), tying the record for most expensive dog ever sold.
