I haven’t seen this though I did once sit next to a guy on the bus who had a chihuahua peeking his little head out of a Coles reusable bag.
I’m all for more dogs and cats everywhere, so I don’t mind. I think it’s pretty common in Europe with dogs, if I’m not mistaken.

aren’t Pets banned on the Trains? I don’t mind it, my Cat *is* my baby. I’m just asking.

The pram is kinda weird, but maybe they don’t have a cat carrier.
As long as it is secure and calm, I don’t see an issue.
I’m a fan of cat owners who keep their moggies safe inside, due the environmental damage they can do, but I know it’s becoming more popular for people to then walk those pets on a lead, so that they get some outside time, which is awesome.
If those folks need to use pt in order to take their kitties for some exercise, I’m in favour of it.

Sounds like an album title.

Sometimes people who don’t have cars need to take their pets to the vet. This seems like a sound way to move the kitty around.

Hell yeah. If not now, then when?

Are you sure it’s not just a really furry baby?

Been happening for ages. I’ve seen cats and dogs in prams, cats in those backpacks with a window to look out of, even saw a lady with a Sulphur Crested Cockie in a little carry thing. Apparently it was so old it had been alive during the Spanish Influenza

In a perfect version of Sydney, we’d have assigned ‘pet cars’ for all trains so people in the inner city wouldn’t need a car to transport their pet and move around the city, and people who don’t like pets or have allergies aren’t exposed to them in close quarters.
But we don’t, so this is the solution and a pretty good one at that.

If they’re contained instead of being on the seats, I don’t care, unless a passenger has an issue.
The first one I would consider a pet carrier as it closes, which as far as I’m aware grants the right to be on public transport unless it interferes with a guide dog.
The second one I would probably have to remove from the bus if a passenger complained.

Before I got my car this was how my pug got around the city.

They’re literally just sitting there doing fuck all. Who cares, get over it.

I’d happily take a train full of them over humans.

Why is this your concern? Mind your own damn business.

I’m guessing we will see more public transport photos as people who stay in their little car bubble realise that this city has more people than just them in it.

Since when did taking photos of strangers and bitching about them online become a thing?
I’m convinced if we ever became a dystopic society, it’s people like you who would report people.

I’m not even a cat person, but I love it.

Love this. Good on them.

And? What’s your problem? They’re contained and not bothering anyone. You need to get out more often.

I think it’s completely fine if the pet is in a pet-pram

Yes more of it!

There was a bit of a push a while ago to allow pets on public transport and it didn’t go anywhere, but a lot of people acted like trains would turn into literal zoos with untrained bully dogs attacking people left and right if it went ahead.
I think we should allow people to use public transport, and that includes pet owners. It’s allowed in Vic and I’ve only seen an animal on public transport a handful of times and they’ve always been very well behaved.

What a nice problem to have.
Much prefer that to babies and children.
