Do you have pets at home?
Yes
What kind of pets do you have? Since when do you live with her?
A bitch (Siberian husky). For more than 10 years
What does your pet eat? How many times a day do you feed her? How do you prepare your food?
His diet is based on beef, meat (mostly chicken) and cooked rice to enlarge his plate. Eat twice a day. We prepare the food without seasonings but in the same conditions as for us
Who is in charge of getting them food?
The two of us who live at home
How do you value the exercise of providing for your pet? Has it gotten better or worse in the last two years?
It has become difficult over the years to get meat, the bofe has become more expensiveand even rice is scarce, but well, even for us, we all experience these conditions.
Did you have pets during the nineties? How different was it then from now?
We had a dog. He ate the same but it was easier to get him food
Did you have farm animals in the 1990s (chickens, pigs, rabbits, etc.)? Should they have been slaughtered for family consumption?
We had chicks, which were fed until they were big enough to eat.
Did you consider them pets at the time?
No, we always knew they were for eating
What other experiences did you have about feeding animals living with humans during the marked shortages in the nineties?
It was in this period that I implemented the bofe as food for my dog, because the meat was quite irregular to get
There were many rumors that were the product of imagination and necessity, which linked stray animals, zoo animals, which one do you know from that time?
It was said that they sold meat from zoo animals around there.We had to take great care of our pets because they could mysteriously disappear.
As the owner of a pet, what do you think is missing in the Cuban market for animal feed?
Food, but that's not just for animals, for everyone.
