Dogs and cats are so 2015.

Being a responsible pet owner isn't easy. You have to feed them, play with them and especially walk them several times a day. It's probably even harder when your beloved pet is a peacock.

Twitter user @HazeCastellano_ spotted one such responsible peacock owner walking her precious bird friend on a rainy day in Bushwick, Brooklyn. 

The image was also posted on Imgur with the caption "Hipster Level: Why." While some people criticize owning such an exotic pet in the city, you have to admit strutting down the sidewalk with a majestic bird would make you proud (as a peacock).
