Social media has created alot of bridges in relation to cultural assimilation. Recently, you will see people from other cultural backgrounds especially Africans copying the lifestyle of Europeans. Using DJ Cuppy as a case study, we are going to extral the dangers of having intimacy with any animal regarded as pet.

Prior to now, Africans do have pets like dogs, fowls, cats and others which they make pens for outside their rooms and these pets are reared in order for them to earn money from them. Even this date, most Africans keeps these animals solely for the purpose of earning money from their offsprings and later sell the animal at old age. However, there is a twist in this method of life. Africans now are mimicking the Europeans who has a system that allows their pets stay indoors, will their inheritance to them and even insure them.

The act of kissing as seen by DJ Cuppy with her dog in the attached photo, is not a known way Africans lived their lives. This is the effect of cultural assimilation. Diseases like the following underlisted has been documented to be transferred from animals to man:
*Two or three of the major STIs in humans have come from animals. We know, for example, that gonorrhoea came from cattle to humans. Syphilis also came to humans from cattle or sheep many centuries ago, possibly sexually.
*Rabies, bubonic plague, food poisoning.
*Others have only recently emerged: monkeypox, West Nile encephalitis, Legionnaires' disease, Ebola and the COVID-19.


In respect to the above listed diseases, do you still think that the act of allowing pets stay indoors and exchange any form of intimacy is healthy for humans?

There are some dogs you should never keep indoor with children because some dogs carry infections such as rabbies and may not be stable for children , ekuke dogs are some of the most popular dog breed here in Africa most of them are not always train and as a result of this they are not suitable to live in with human.

There is wrong keeping your pet in door especially dog but not local dog because those ones mess up everywhere and it is not hygienic for ones health.it is only train dog that can be kept indoor so anytime there is need to pass out waste,they will know where to turn too without messing up the environment.It is a good idea.

Animals may not directlyy talk the human language but animals do posses some skills and level of Intelligence that a human being cannot comprehend to.

Once you call an animal a pet it means you have domesticated it and if you follow all guidelines and routine vaccinations then you would likely not have any possible zoonotic disease.

Depending on your level of training the animal you can create for it it's home indoor or outdoor because of some aesthetic reasons based on your preference.For example a dog will tell you that it now wants to take a dump "hanched back" only if you have dog handler training can you read that.

Animals now play vital roles in our lives because of the super intelligence. Some are there to offer emotional support, others are 911 emergency dogs trained to offer first aid far more efficient than a human,timely detect if one is about to have a heart attack or go into shock, some trained dogs can detect cancer cells in the initial stage.

I do not think it is a crime for Africa to have access to these pets or even services they offer if you can afford them

No matter how healthy the animal or the pet is, it is not meant to be kissed. I do see educated people behaving as if they are not. This is what I called inferiority complex. Seeing the white doing the same thing to thier part doesn't make it right or worthy of emulation.

There are some pets that you can never keep them in there if your health is your priority. A pet like pig can never be kept indoor because they are messy and they can easily scattered things. Dogs are not only friendly but they are very neat and can be trained to do some of the basic things. The same thing goes for the cat.

If a pet is healthy and totally free from all sort of diseases, I think there is no harm in keeping them indoor. However from what I have seen people doing around, they are found extra mile with pets, after a pet has wondered around the whole town they will still allow it have access to their food and other things, it's unsafe that way.
