  我们都听说狗是人类最好的朋友,而猫有时会很冷漠——但是宠物火鸡呢?

  动物爱好者戴夫·布鲁克说,他两岁大的宠物火鸡“麻烦二号”(简称T2)对他来说就像个孩子,走到哪里都跟着他。

  当肯特郡梅德斯通的当地人看到T2坐在他车的副驾驶座位上,或者看到他在超市停车场给她最喜欢的零食——苏格兰鸡蛋的肉时,他肯定会吸引一些目光。

  56岁的戴夫甚至带她去酒吧,他们经常一起坐在白马酒吧,分享一包奶酪和洋葱薯片。

  自从把T2当作宠物饲养后,他就不再吃火鸡当圣诞晚餐了。

  “她就像我的孩子,”戴夫承认道,并补充道:“我们之间有一种相互的联系。她是一个很好的伴侣,也很有趣——有时我甚至觉得她有一半是人类。”

  戴夫为火鸡下蛋而饲养火鸡,在把新生的T2送回她的母亲“麻烦”之前,他被迫照顾她。

  他解释说:“她妈妈正坐在一打鸡蛋上,天气变得很糟糕。

  Dave Brooker and his pet turkey T2, Maidstone, 22nd September 2023. Release date, 24/9/23. See SWNS story SWLSturkey. Don't mention Christmas but one turkey might just avoid the oven this year after becoming best friends with his owner. Animal lover Dave Brooker goes everywher<em></em>e with his beloved pet turkey Trouble Version Two - or T2 for short - who is like a child to him and has followed him everywher<em></em>e from the pub to the dentist since she was born two years ago. Locals in Maidstone, Kent, are often baffled as they see the 56-year-old sat alo<em></em>ngside T2 in his car when they stop at traffic lights, or when he feeds her her favourite snack - the meat from a scotch egg - in the middle of a Tesco's car park. She can often be seen casually sitting in the White Horse pub in Maidstone with a packet of cheese & o<em></em>nion crisps and has had such an effect on her owner that he's stopped eating turkey for Christmas dinner.

  “前两只孵出来的火鸡都死了,所以我建了一个育雏器,让它们足够强壮,回到妈妈的肚子里。”

  “T2是第一个出来的,我喂了它10到11个小时。

  “她是一个人,我在看她,她一定以为我是她的父母。”

  其他企鹅都很容易地回到了妈妈的身下,但T2不行。

  “从那以后,她几乎和我一起去任何地方。

  “我在停车场喂她,因为她喜欢苏格兰蛋上的香肠肉。

  “她非常喜欢这个,每次去乐购都是她请客。”

  “我们还去梅德斯通的白马酒店;她从小就一直去那里。

  “我有一段她小时候在吧台上走路的视频。”

  这对情侣只有在戴夫去乐购做网购员的时候才真正分开——她甚至陪他去看牙医。

  他说:“我最近去看牙医,我问接待员能不能帮我做火鸡保姆。”

  “她以为这是个玩笑,但后来我把T2带了进来。他们都很喜欢。

  “大多数人认为这很奇怪,但这实际上是一个很好的话题。

  “她吸引了很多人的注意,但她表现得很好。

  “在酒吧里,她坐在毯子上。

  “不像大多数会跑来跑去的狗,你让她坐下来,给她一包奶酪和洋葱薯片,她就会很开心。”

  “她很温顺,很善于交际,也很守规矩。她不会四处游荡,她让人们抚摸她。

  “我经常在特易购的停车场喂她,孩子们和大人都会过来。

  “它只是帮助人们以不同的方式看待火鸡,因为大多数人实际上没有见过活火鸡。”

  “我不再吃火鸡了。我以前喜欢,但现在不行。宠物火鸡可不行。就像有人在吃狗一样。

  “当你养一只动物的时候,这很困难……如果你是一个农民,也许你可以不养它,但我有点软。”

  “火鸡是一种有趣的鸟类,它们看起来很史前。这是我的小迅猛龙。”

  布鲁克先生补充说,他和T2的关系就像狗和它们的主人一样重要,他说:“有些人可能会觉得很奇怪,但有些人养了70只猫,他们甚至不清理它们的粪便。”

  “2014年,我经历了一段严重的焦虑和抑郁,和动物建立这样的联系很有帮助。”

  “人们担心当我在乐购停车场喂她时她会跑掉,但她从来没有那样做过。”

  “如果我们都是一样的,这个世界就会很无聊,而且会发生很多比一个人养一只火鸡更奇怪的事情。”

  “她只是让人们微笑,我觉得这很棒。”
