One Reddit user spotted an Aliexpress ad for a “pet incinerator” on Instagram, a macabre encounter that raises plenty of questions.

    Phrasing here is what’s weird. Who exactly is the target audience of buyers?

    If they called it “animal crematorium” or “carcass incinerator”, it would make sense for veterinary clinics and farms. Who tf searches for “pet incinerator”?

      The fact that they added the word “custom” to a lot of the ads also raises the question of who’s out there pimping out a pet incinerator.

        Since this is Alibaba, I think it’s meant for resellers getting their logo stamped onto a white label product like this one.
