Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a pet breeding sound generator that generates a sound for breeding pets.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Pets (pet animals), such as dogs, cats, and small birds, heal people's hearts and are often treated as members of families in recent years. For example, relatively large dogs are increasingly living together in houses (ie, under the same roof).

[0003] Here, when a pet that has been loved dies, it was previously buried in a garden at home. This is presumed to be a sign that they do not want to dispose of dead pets as garbage or wish to mourn nearby.

However, it is difficult to secure a place to bury pets in the current housing situation. In particular, people living in rental housing do not have their own gardens, and such burial methods are impossible.

In recent years, a graveyard dedicated to pets has been created in the suburbs, and is now being sold.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 By the way, the above-mentioned graveyard exclusively for pets has a disadvantage that the selling price is high and it is hard to obtain. In addition, such graveyards are often located in inconvenient areas far from the city area, and have the disadvantage that they cannot be easily accessed.

Therefore, recently, a Buddhist altar dedicated to pets has been proposed (JP-A-2000-5040, etc.). It is said that such a pet altar is cheaper than the cemetery, so it is easy to obtain, and that it can be kept in the house, so that it can be easily handed in when you want to memorialize.

Here, in the case of a Buddhist altar for human beings, it is common to ring a bell before sending hands and send a signal to ancestors, etc. There is no sound generator for memorial service like Buddha bell, so it feels something unsatisfactory.

[0009] If the pet owner is a believer in a religion other than Buddhism (such as Christianity), it may be psychologically resistant to join hands with the Buddhist altar. At the same time, since pets lived and died without religion, it is desirable to use a memorial tool that can cultivate pets without bias to a particular religion.

[0010] An object of the present invention is to provide a low-cost pet breeding sound generator that can generate a sound for breeding pets without being biased to a specific religion.
