点评:In Japan, animal cafes abound. I am a biologist (seabird specialist with a tiny bit of experience with birds of prey) and I have to say that generally I do not support the concept of putting animals in an environment with the public where interactions are often forced and concern for the animals' well-being is secondary to profit.
THIS is not that kind of place.
Here, the owls are primary and the guests are secondary... in my opinion, that is as it should be.
What is going on here is truly magical. The owls are SO obviously relaxed and happy. They interact only if they choose to interact, they are treated with the most care and respect that I could imagine; I was honestly overwhelmed at the amount of love, respect and affection that was clearly demonstrated between all of the birds and the owners. Most of the owls are rescue birds that cannot be released back into the wild, or they were pets that could no longer be cared for by their owners. How fortunate they are to have found a home here!
As a guest, you will have an experience that you will never forget. You will meet extraordinary birds in a relaxing, quiet, soothing environment that seems worlds away from the craziness of Akihabara... and you will share something very special with some truly amazing humans who use their love for owls to create beauty and magic in the world.
If you are on the fence about animal cafes because of concerns like mine, this is the place for you. The owls are amazing and the humans that care for them are simply wonderful. Go and support them and have an experience you won't forget.
翻译:在日本,动物咖啡馆随处可见。我是一位生物学家(海鸟专家,略懂猛禽饲养),不得不说,我通常不支持将动物置于与公众接触的环境中,因为这种环境中的互动往往是被迫的,动物的福祉被置于利润之下。
这里并非如此。
在这里,猫头鹰是第一位的,客人是第二位的……在我看来,这才是理所当然的。
这里的一切真是妙不可言。猫头鹰们显然非常放松和快乐。它们只有在自愿的情况下才会互动,它们受到了我能想象到的最大的关爱和尊重;老实说,我被所有鸟类和主人之间所展现的爱、尊重和关怀所震撼。大多数猫头鹰都是被救助的鸟类,无法放归野外,或者它们是主人无法再照顾的宠物。它们能在这里找到家真是太幸运了!
作为宾客,您将拥有一段永生难忘的体验。您将在轻松、静谧、舒缓的环境中邂逅这些非凡的鸟类,仿佛远离秋叶原的喧嚣……您还将与一些真正令人敬佩的人类分享这份特别的体验,他们用对猫头鹰的热爱为世界创造了美丽与魔力。
如果您像我一样,因为担忧动物咖啡馆而犹豫不决,那么这里就是您的理想之选。猫头鹰令人惊叹,照顾它们的人类也同样令人敬佩。快来支持它们,享受一段难忘的体验吧。
