'Pet' tells six heartwarming stories about love and being loved, through a pig, two cats, and three dogs, all connected by a pet hospital. It encompasses friendship, family, and romance, and each emotion is handled perfectly, deeply ingrained in the hearts of the audience, causing them to resonate with profound emotional connections.

Perhaps when we first encounter small pets, we are drawn to them because of their cuteness. However, what moves me is not the pets' cuteness, but the pure love they give us behind each story. This extreme purity of love allows us to feel the pets' loyalty, devotion, single-mindedness, intelligence, and endearing desire to please – qualities we often associate with pet ownership.

We often assume that because we care for pets, they care for us in return. But in reality, pets are constantly showering us with love, and it is only through this love that we truly appreciate their affection, loyalty, and intelligence. It's this realization that I want to express.

Below, I will discuss three aspects of the film's profound portrayal of pets' extreme and pure love for their owners, which are the underlying reasons why we can establish deep emotional connections with our pets, and also explain the underlying reasons for the film's high box office success.

01, Pets always give us more love and help than we expect; humans' innate sense of superiority naturally lowers the psychological expectation for other species.

Outside deliveryman Ade got lost in an area delivering food and happened to meet a stray dog. Ade helplessly said, 'Do you know where Block C, Building 2 is?' Surprisingly, the stray dog led Ade to the location. Ade was grateful and began to regularly bring food to the dog, and the stray dog always accurately found the address Ade had specified.

We consider ourselves the most intelligent and advanced species. When compared to other animals, this sense of superiority is ingrained in us. Therefore, we automatically expect pets to respond to us in a way that confirms our self-perception. Pets respond to us in ways that surprise and delight us, solidifying our feelings of satisfaction and joy.

In the film, Wang Wei, a reclusive father, couldn't express his love for his daughter, Mengmeng, who lives in the United States with her mother, so he confided in his pet cat, Anji. He and Anji made video calls.

During the time when Anji was a pet cat, Wang Wei confided in the cat: 'It's not that I don't want you, it's that I've lost you.' He realized that he had been responsible for losing her.

Pets give us so much selfless love and joy, which is the underlying reason for our regret and moving. We think we are loving them, but in fact, it's for them to love us more. We should treat the animals around us kindly, and cherish them, cherish the pure love.
