Foster care for pets during Festival hot in BJ

A new wave of pet fostering has hit the capital as many owners, who are non-Beijing residents, return to their hometown to enjoy the traditional Chinese Spring Festival with families.

The Beijing International Pets Park, which is located at Songzhuang, Tongzhou District of Beijing, is one of the popular pet fostering sites for people who are about to leave their animals while they are away for the holidays.

"We have up to now received about 40 pets these days, which doubles our average monthly amount," said Mr. Zhang, manager of Beijing International Pets Park on February 9, 2010. "And it is possible that more pets will come here during Spring Festival," he added.

The average daily caring fee in Beijing International Pet Park ranges from 40 yuan to 60 yuan according to pet size.
