Everybody has one or two pet devotees in their circle of friends. And many legislators in Taiwan, regardless of party affiliation, have a fondness for pets: Hsiao Bi-khim has her cat; Hwang Yih-jiau has his German shepherd; Lee Hung-chun has his Labrador; Tu Wen-ching has his indigenous Taiwanese dog; Tang Pi-o has her shiba; and Joanna Lei has a cat that co-stars with her on her television program.
觀察我們的周遭好友，總有這麼一兩個，對於寵物有著無比的熱情與執著，而政治圈中的立委大人們，不論色彩黨派，喜愛寵物者更如數家珍，像愛貓的蕭美琴、養德國狼犬的黃義交、李鴻鈞的拉不拉多犬、杜文卿和他的台灣土狗、唐碧娥的柴犬，以及會帶貓咪上節目的雷倩等。
