The Wrong Flag on the Feedbag

Photos by Dietmarf. Sloppy photoshopping by me.

That’s the Slovenian flag with Slovak words, in case there’s any confusion.

And for the record: rabbits aren’t rodents, contrary to what the English attempt at a translation says.

(Thanks Dietmarf!)

    Maybe they meant rabid rodents…

    They also have the Indonesian flag with Polish text — either that or they’re in distress.

    No! I was wrong! If my eyes aren’t deceiving me, it says “Za vse glodalce” next to the upside-down Polish (or is it a right-side-up Indonesian flag?), which is, we can therefore assume, apparently supposed to be some sort of a Slovenian flag. The mystery deepens.

    Luka, it isn’t even a feedbag ;-) (wood-chips to keep the cage dry)
    Hey: but it’s still something new to mix up Slovenia with three other countries at the same time!
    It could indeed be Slovenian next to the indonesian flag, especially because the third line under the big “Heimtierstreu” says: “STELJA ZA MALE ZIVALI”. No, not “ŽIVALI”!! (I’m just checking the original photo)

    Another interesting point is that the Czech text reads “for all small rodents” while the Slovak version means “for all small animals”. Apparently the Slovaks have cultivated new species of cats, goldfish, and cockroaches which can also enjoy whatever is in the bag…

    Yap!
    It’s confusing. But there are also flags of Monaco with Polish texts and reverse… Huh.
