Greetings ASEAN Hivers, this week's challenge is all about the pets of ASEAN Hive, and they don't need to have paws and claws to be a part of this one.

🐾 Paws & Claws 🐰

👨‍💻 Week #126 👩‍💻

^{September 16th ➡️ September 23rd, 2024}

     This week's challenge is neither the first time or the last time we will feature the pets of ASEAN Hive, and as I've already mentioned, the title "Paws & Claws" is just for fun, reptiles, fish, and all non-clawed/pawed pets are welcome too. Tell us details about your pet like its name, age, gender, how you came into each other's lives, etc. Go on an adventure together, do a furry fashion show, the choice is yours, and the rules are always flexible.

     If you are pet-less you can even feature a neighbor's or friend's pet, or even some research and details on a type of pet you'd like to have some day. I won't personally recommend putting a cat in water like in the above GIF, but if you do the liability is on you, and I wish you luck capturing a photo that isn't blurry. Okay, a pet-themed challenge doesn't need much explaining, so let's keep moving along and see the winners of last week's challenge....

Week #125 ASEAN Hive Challenge Winners
🥟 Dumpling Dreams 🥢

     Dumplings are one of my family's favorite snacks, so this challenge certainly had my attention. As an American guy living in Cambodia, my favorite dumplings are Nepalese momos, not very Southeast Asian of me, I know. Despite seeing no momos in this challenge, I did see some tempting dumplings from the Philippines and Indonesia, and the winning posts are certainly worth your time.

1st Prize 🏆 10% Beneficiary & 150 Ecency Points

Dumpling Dreams: A Fond Memories with My Family, Enjoying "Siomai" and "Siopao" as Snacks
by: @ruffatotmeee

It was during college days, whenever I have to travel to Calapan with the oldies every start of semester to get cash benefits from "that" certain company. We will travel together, but not only that for a sole purpose because it's a long trip, so we have to make the most of it. We will go to Robinson Mall, then we'll stroll around, eat out, and enjoy the rest of the day.

2nd Prize 🥈 6% Beneficiary & 100 Ecency Points

The Dumpling Dreams From It's My Coffee Cafe
by: @viviehardika

Last week I was really interested in joining the week challenge but I couldn't join because I was busy and couldn't prioritize cooking. But I won't miss the boat, because this week's challenge coincidentally is very related to the food I've been eating lately. This is the dumpling that I purchased in It's My Cofee Cafe in FX Sudirman months ago. There is no special reason why I bought it at the cafe besides I want to eat snacks instead of dinner.

3rd Prize 🥉 4% Beneficiary & 75 Ecency Points

There were only two entries for this challenge, so I gladly split the 3rd prize rewards between our 1st and 2nd prize winners.
