    Chinese 'blind box' pet rescue sparks outrage

    160 puppies and kittens have reportedly been rescued in China this week, in an incident that has sparked outrage there.

    The animals were found in a warehouse where, according to local media, they were being shipped disguised as regular packages -- and as what are called "blind box" gifts.

    Blind boxes are a popular trend across the world where consumers pay a retailer to ship them a box with a random assortment of novelty items inside. The buyer doesn't know what they're getting, such as toys or comic books.
