I told my very close papa (male supporter) in a monthly arrangement that I wanted to get a dog, and he said, “Absolutely not! Don’t do it!!”
This content is machine-translated.
I don’t want to lose my place as papa’s favorite, so I plan to respect his wishes as much as possible, but I really don’t understand why he’s so adamant that I mustn’t get a dog. Would someone normally go that far?
Around that time, I found out that a hostess he sees less often than me apparently owns a dog—I happened to see a photo being sent to him. When she stays over at papa’s place, she has to book a pet hotel herself, which makes coordinating dates a hassle. So I wondered if he sees “getting a dog” as meaning I’d become a woman he couldn’t call over at a moment’s notice, but I’m not really sure...
I’m Maezawa from the President’s Office, and I’ll answer this one too.
Thank you for your question.
I think it may be because having a pet can create drawbacks in a relationship, such as last-minute cancellations because of the pet or being unable to go on a trip because they have one.
There was also a hostess featured on TV before who was apparently in cahoots with a pet shop—she would have men buy her pets and then immediately return them to the shop.
She said the trick was to have everyone buy the same breed of dog, which earned her a substantial kickback from the pet shop.
Seeing things like that may also make some men feel uncomfortable.

I’m in Seattle.
I absolutely love cats, but I don’t keep one because it would make traveling difficult.
Let’s weigh how important having a papa on a monthly arrangement is against how badly you want a dog.
I want to keep a human cat, meow. Or maybe I want to be a dog.

I’m Kazu, a male member.
As you guessed, I think it started because he felt she was paying attention to her pet instead of giving him enough attention.
As for why he was so adamant, there are definitely some older guys who get angry because they feel disrespected when you don’t do exactly as they advise. I had plenty of unpleasant experiences with men like that in my twenties, too（笑）
Your question reminded me of that, so I’ll be careful not to become that kind of old guy.

I’m jealous of dogs.
No—I lose to dogs… completely defeated…
Please, don’t get one… If you already have one, that’s fine…
