Why do father, daughter, dog and cat take the same photo every year for a decade

A family from Hong Kong has won the hearts of millions of people by sharing their photo album online. Father, daughter and their pets take the same photo every year, and it's very cute.

In 2008, Wong Tin took a photo for the first time with a newborn Tiffany in his arms, and in the last photo, a 10-year-old girl is already snuggling up to her 49-year-old father. They are invariably accompanied by a cat and a dog.

Wong Ting posted the photos on the Chinese social network Weibo.

Wong Tin said that the first photo was taken by accident. His wife Grace just got out of the shower and saw this "funny composition".

Since 2008, Wong's wife has taken seven identical pictures (there was a break from 2009 to 2012). The annual photo shoot began in 2013, when Tiffany saw the first photo. The girl decided that she was very interesting, and asked to do the same. Since then, the family has been taking such a photo every year.

Wong said he was glad that people on the web liked the photos. But, according to him, it would be better if they understood the meaning of these pictures. Many Chinese families throw their pets out into the street when a child appears in the house, believing that an animal is unhygienic. Wong stressed that many animal owners fear that wool can harm the health of the mother and child. But he wants to prove the opposite with his photos.

When Wong's wife became pregnant, his father-in-law and mother-in-law suggested that he get rid of the pets, but the man ignored these tips. Now Wong is urging others not to drive the animals out into the street. And he considers his photos a good example for those who make a decision.
