Many people share intense bonds with their pets, some even treat them like family. There are now designer clothes, hot spring resorts, and even yoga classes for pets. They’re treated so much like humans that in Japan, pets can now get their very own resident cards.It's really random but we don’t expect anything less from the land of e-sport hotels and DIY funeral kits.The Kanagawa Prefectural government collaborated with tech startup Peco in developing the cards, Sora News 24 reported. They’re available online for free, and include vital pet information such as their name, photo, birth date, sex, and family members (you and any other human who shares ownership). And if you’d like to show off, you have the option of adding their special tricks and abilities too. Expert pets who can play dead or bark on command, it’s your time to shine.
