Our next question: If you had to start a social media channel, what would your content be about? To take part, drop us a line via this form by 12pm on Wednesday, February 25.

Anna Lau Nga-ting, 15, HKTA The Yuen Yuen Institute No 1 Secondary School: My cat would say, “Clean your room now! I’ve walked across the floor and stepped on three socks, an English notebook and a half-eaten chocolate bar. How can you be this messy, my owner? Please tidy up so I can explore in peace!”

Wong King-kit, 14, Lung Kong WFSL Lau Wong Fat Secondary School: If my pet could send me a text message right now, I think it would say, “Dad, please don’t sterilise me.”

Zheng Junmei, 14, Fung Kai Liu Man Shek Tong Secondary School: Why are you still staring at that glowing rectangle instead of paying attention to me? Every day after school, you hold onto that strange device all night long. It’s already 9pm, and I am starving. How selfish and inconsiderate you are. I can’t believe I have such a lazy master.

Vicky Wu Chin-yin, 16, Christian Alliance S.C. Chan Memorial College: I know it has been eight years, but I still remember you. You were like sunshine by the window, and I still think of the little snacks you hid just for me. I may have been small, but you loved me so gently. I will always be your tiny, fuzzy friend, forever in your heart.

Emma Lo Tsz-wai, 14, Chinese YMCA Secondary School: “Why would you give me such a silly and random name?” I think the name I chose for my dog is quite silly because no one would typically come up with something like it. To be honest, it’s also a very unique name! P.S. My pet’s name is Pinky, inspired by an animation I used to watch.

Liu Leyi, 13, Tak Nga Secondary School: I believe my dog would say, “I’m so happy to live and play with you. Thank you for taking care of me all this time. I hope we can continue living and playing together forever.”

Yanny Lai Yui-ying, 14, STFA Seaward Woo College: Don’t stay at home all the time. You should exercise more and go for walks more often. Additionally, I hope you can play with me more frequently.

Yanny Lin Yaxin, 15, Pope Paul VI College: If my pet could talk, it would ask me why I touch and hug it every day, making it feel so hot and causing its fur to get messy. Every time I groom its fur, I have to spend a long time doing it.

Serena Leung Hin-wan, 16, Pui Kiu College: I have a pet snake named Document. Although he doesn’t have arms to text, it always feels like he wants to send me a message. He would probably say something like, “Please change my bedding; I pooped!” or “The humidity is too high! Fix it, owner!”

Hannah Lau Ting-hei, 13, HKUGA College: Hi! I’m Coco, and I love my name so much! Thank you for bringing me home; you’ve given me a warm place to live and a family, and the best part is having you as my best friend forever! Please promise me that no matter what happens in the world, you’ll never forget me! Love, Coco.
