A fair for pet owners… or those considering to be

Haustiermesse Wien 2023

Disappointingly, this is not a massive hall filled with animals of all shapes and sizes, although we imagine many people will bring theirs along… just because. Instead, this weekend will see the Marx Halle filled with all things ‘Haustiere’ (that’s German for pets).

If you own one, or you’re thinking of buying one, this is where you should be this weekend. Or not. Maybe in a park somewhere playing with your pet might be a nicer idea. What do we know. The last pet we owned was a hamster that we suspect may have jumped off the balcony when we were at work.
