Those days when I was reborn as a cat

Time has entered December, there are only a few pages left on the calendar, and many things have to be put on the agenda. The shops in the town are hung with garlands and ribbons, and a huge Christmas tree is placed in the central square. The festive atmosphere is getting stronger.

As one of the few flower shops in the town, Lu Shi's handmade floral art is particularly outstanding, and orders for him are flying in like a flake. Every household needs flowers and green plants to decorate the dining table, and couples also need a bouquet of flowers to ignite warmth on Christmas Day.

Lu Yi, who is also keen on decorating houses, is helpless. Even if he intends to reduce the number of orders he takes, as long as his neighbors and regular customers put their hands together and ask, he has no way to refuse their requests.

Lu Yi, who was not very busy, could only decorate his and Lu Yu's home little by little, buying a small tree today and a few garlands the day after tomorrow. As for the menu ingredients on the Christmas table, leave it to Fang Wen. Anyway, he is fully responsible for the preparation of the feast.

The orders piled up like a mountain. Lu Shi hurriedly finished the toast, drank half a cup of yogurt, and went down to the first floor with the design drawings to start his busy day.

The living room was heated and the temperature was suitable. The cat's nest covered with blankets was slightly raised. Lu Yu was sound asleep with snot bubbles in his nose. A pair of plush ears exposed outside the blanket trembled subconsciously when he heard Lu Shi coming downstairs. one time.

It just feels that Lu Xi has been harassing it less often recently. He won't have his head poked when he sleeps in, and his ears won't be tugged when he comes home late. Life is much more comfortable.

There is no concept of festivals in the cat world. They play, hunt, eat and lick their fur. There is no rest day throughout the year. Any day can be a holiday as long as there is a big meal.

what--

After sleeping happily until he woke up naturally, Lu Yu straightened his forelimbs and stretched out. The cat's nest was warm and soft. It didn't want to leave the nest, so it should groom its fur in the nest.

Lu Yu used his paws to wash his eyes and cheeks, and then licked the messy hair. Lu Yu concentrated on taking care of himself.

The sound of jingling bells kept coming from downstairs, which was the sound of the bell hanging at the door of the store being shaken.

Lu Yu shook his ears as he didn't want to think about being a lucky cat on the first floor. There have been a lot of customers in the store recently.

It tilted its head to look at the calendar on the wall, December 20th. Lu Yu blinked and realized that it would be Christmas in five days!

This is his first Christmas as a cat. Can he wish for a big meal? Lu Yu couldn't help but look forward to it.

But at least not today.

The food bowl is still filled with mixed flavors of cat food.

Mao's wish for the new year is that Fang Wen stay at home and Lu Yu clasped his paws together and said goodbye, Amen.

After padding his belly, Lu Yu wandered around the second floor aimlessly. After rubbing the stool legs, it jumped onto the dining table as usual. Lu Shi's remaining half cup of yogurt immediately caught its attention.

As a cat whose core is human, Lu Yu has many quirks in eating. He doesn't eat mice or insects. He likes lightly seasoned warm food. He doesn't like to eat many things that cats like to eat.

but! Yogurt is the exception!

No kitty can say no to yogurt!

Squeezing half of his face into the mouth of the yogurt cup, Lu Yu rolled the yogurt into his mouth with his little tongue with relish, and finally pressed the yogurt lid under his paws and licked it clean.

There must be some in the refrigerator. When Senwu comes in the afternoon, the cat will treat him to a drink.

Lu Yu licked the corners of his mouth and narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

After sending out the last order of the morning, Lu Yi checked his notes and found that he had almost two hours of free time at noon, which was just enough to go to the commercial street to buy some Christmas tree decorations. He has already made a list and can just go to the store to buy it and take it home.

Making up his mind to seize the moment, Lu Yi took the car keys, locked the door and set off.

Hearing the sound of the car starting, Lu Yu jumped onto the window sill and only had time to see Lu Mi's car driving away.

Lu Shi went out, and the cat was bored at home. Why not go for a walk nearby? The old lady who lived in the next street baked delicious biscuits.

Cats will unconsciously walk further and further out of curiosity. When they find that they are surrounded by strangers, especially when they enter the territory of other animals, they will panic and lose their sense of direction and cannot find their way home.

Lu Yu was very good at identifying directions, but Lu Yi and Senwu were very strict about him going out alone, and warned him not to stray too far from home. So it just walks around the neighborhood streets.

Lu Yuxiao complained in a low voice. In fact, they didn't need to nag him, and he wouldn't go too far away from home.

One is that it is really afraid of not being able to find its way, after all, cats don’t have mobile phone navigation, and the other is that it doesn’t want to be misunderstood and beaten when passing by another cat’s territory.

Targeting the old lady's baked biscuits, Lu Yu raised his tail and looked around to see everything was fresh.

Familiar streets change slightly every day.

There are red and green ribbons hanging on the branches of the trees, and there are also small gift boxes hanging on them.

But it's definitely empty.

Auntie, don't plant green onions, it's too cold to live.

Don’t plant coriander either.

Stupid dog, stop barking! You can’t bite the cat, and you’re not thirsty because it keeps barking? You are the only one who has not made any progress in the whole street.

Lu Yu hummed a little song and jumped up and down, jumping from the wall of this house to the wall of that house, moving in a straight line, and soon he saw the deck chair in the old woman's yard.

The old woman was standing at the door of the courtyard chatting with her neighbors. As long as she sees the cat, she will smile kindly and take out the biscuits.

Lu Yu was about to jump over and make a cute appearance when he suddenly heard a few meows coming from the street on the left.

If translated into human language, it would sound like a hooligan.

"Beautiful lady, do you want to go back to the nest with the cat? The cat will perform a backflip for you."

"Look at the cat's strong limbs and round and big head. It will definitely make you full every meal!"

"Listen! The cat wants to have kittens with you."

The self-showing meows are even mixed with the sounds of fighting and scratching. Cats only assume this life-and-death posture when they are competing for mates.

Lu Yu listened carefully for a while in surprise. Was it wrong to be so enthusiastic in such a cold day? How handsome the cat being fought over must be!

No, the cat has to go see something.

Lu Yu's curiosity was aroused, he swung his tail and jumped towards the other wall.

There are residential areas nearby, and there are not many vehicles. At this time, children are going to school and adults are working. Except for the elderly who are retired at home, there are no people on the road.

The four cats were squatting and tugging at the flower bed on the street. Three to be exact, waving their paws, wagging their butts and tails, and meowing loudly.

From a distance, Lu Yu saw the cat being fought over by the cats at a glance.

It was a long-haired calico cat with cute triangular black pointed ears, big oval eyes with eyeliner, and a small nose that was tender pink.

Its black, orange and white long hair is more lustrous than the highest quality silk and satin. Its four snow-white claws are softer than clouds. Whoever you look at with its bright cat eyes will fall under its beauty in the next second. .

I heard before that calico cats are the most beautiful among cats. Lu Yu learned a lot today. This long-haired calico cat is indeed beautiful. When Lu Yu jumped over the wall, the three cats who were fascinated by him almost started fighting again.

Compared with the positive performance of the three cats, the long-haired calico cat showed a lack of interest. It was licking its paws elegantly and did not even look at the three cats.

As the long-haired calico cat moved, the collar under its neck was exposed to Lu Yu's eyes. This calico cat was domesticated, and he probably ran away without permission and got lost.

Judging from its sleek appearance, the owner of the calico cat must have taken great care in raising it, and would never allow it to have kittens with a stray cat.

The road for the three wild boys to pursue their wives is slim.

Lu Yu held his chin and analyzed clearly.

"Who!" Sensitive noses smelled the new scent, and the three cats looked up at the wall warily.

A little tabby cat waved to them friendly: "Hello, I'm passing by, you go on."

They are good-looking and cute, but calico cats are more in line with cats’ mate selection criteria. After confirming that Lu Yu was not a competitor, the three cats turned to show their attentiveness to the long-haired three-flowered cat.

At this time, the long-haired calico cat, which was originally indifferent, actually walked towards the wall where Lu Yu was, and jumped onto the wall with a little effort. It stretched out its head and sniffed Lu Yu's ear, its eyes sparkling: "You are really good, cat." Come home with you."

W-what!

Just like the innocent scholar who was hit by a hydrangea while passing by, Lu Yu was furious when he heard this, and backed away for fear of causing misunderstanding: "The cats are not interested! You should just look for them!"

The long-haired calico cat looked disdainfully at the cats waving their claws at each other under the wall, and curled his lips: "If the cat doesn't like it, the cat will choose you."

It said as it approached Lu Yuchangui.

But I don't like you!

Lu Yu, who was forcibly bought and sold, was in a hurry, jumping left and right, and almost fell off the wall to avoid the calico cat.

Three cats competing for a mate suddenly realize that the person they are courting is missing. Looking around, their eyes widened with anger. The goddess was actually sitting with the boy on the wall!

Hello! Do the newcomers understand that first come, first served? The right to choose a mate is obtained through fighting. Why do you kid jump in the queue?

Seeing the three furious cats about to jump up the fence to give them a good look, Lu Yu was so frightened that he quickly turned around and ran home, Meow! As expected, it’s hard to join in the fun, curiosity killed the cat!

Lu Yu ran at the speed of being chased by a dog and rushed forward when he saw the road. He jumped over several walls in one breath. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar yard.

His heart was so nervous that it was about to burst. The panting Lu Yu looked back quietly at a corner. Fortunately, the three cats gave up the pursuit at some point.

But at the next glance, its heart almost jumped out of its mouth. How could this long-haired calico cat catch up? Why are you following the cat?

No, Cat needs to speak clearly!

Lu Yu braked urgently, turned around and stopped in front of the long-haired calico cat, and solemnly declared with a straight face: "Stop following me, I have no plans to find a mate!"

The long-haired calico cat seemed unaware. Its eyes fell on the yard behind Lu Yu. It raised its chin and crossed Lu Yu in an elegant cat walk. It jumped lightly into Lu Mi's yard and sniffed around happily. , as if Lu Shi’s yard was its back garden.

For cats, this is no different than a territorial grab.

No cat can tolerate having its territory invaded.

Feeling provoked, Lu Yu suppressed the anger of the fight, slapped his paws and bared his teeth at the long-haired calico cat, trying to force the cat back out of the gate.

Lu Yi, who had returned home early, was wrapping a bouquet. He thought Lu Yu was still sleeping in on the second floor, waiting for Senwu to pick him up, but he heard the cat's warning breath coming from the yard.

Lu Yu is like a sweet glutinous rice dumpling. He is very polite and kind to cats and dogs. It is almost never seen that he actively provokes other animals.

Worried that Lu Yu was in danger, Lu Mi put down the scissors and walked to the door to look around. He saw his little civet and a beautiful long-haired calico cat standing face to face.

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment. Lu Yu brought a female cat home?

Lu Yu just wanted to cry without tears.

The long-haired calico cat seems to have seen through its fierce appearance and soft heart, and does not take its intimidation into consideration at all. Lu Yu almost waved his paws to his face, but the calico cat just glanced at him lightly and continued to explore the yard.

After sniffing around the yard, the long-haired calico cat squatted with its tail folded, its eyes twitching as it made a request: "The cat is hungry. The cat wants to eat canned meat."

Seeing the long-haired calico cat's self-righteous appearance, Lu Yu gritted his teeth and complained, isn't this just a spoiled brat from a relative who comes to the house to give polite orders.

Cats don't like you.

Lu Yu was about to chase the cat away when he heard Lu Mi's voice: "My dear, where did this kitten come from?"

Lu Shi! Send this cat away quickly! Lu Yu seemed to have seen a savior. He rushed to Lu Yi's feet, hugged his legs and screamed.

Lu Yu's movements were so exciting that Lu Yi thought it was because Lu Yu didn't want to get close to other kittens.

He rubbed Lu Yu's head and said with a smile: "Oh, my little boy is jealous. Don't worry, if dad doesn't hold it, dad will see if it is a cat with an owner."

He saw that the long-haired calico cat looked clean and beautiful and did not look like a stray.

Sure enough, Lu Shi found a collar on the long-haired calico cat's neck. He took off the collar and looked through it. The owner's last name, mobile phone number and home address were engraved on the inside.

"My dear, please treat him while his father calls his owner." Lu Yi said, took the collar and turned back to the house.

Lu Yu felt very happy when he heard this: "Did you hear that? Your master will come to pick you up soon. Just stay in the yard and don't run around."

The long-haired calico cat kicked its neck and looked graceful in its tickling movements: "Why don't you want to? Maybe we can have more contact."

"No need." Lu Yu flatly refused.

In order to prevent the long-haired calico cat from running into the house, Lu Yu lay in the middle of the road with his paws in his hands, staring at the calico cat closely. His pursuers were like crucian carp crossing the river. What did the calico cat see in him?

Lu Yu hesitated for a while and couldn't help but wonder: "How did you fall in love with me?"

The long-haired calico cat blinked its beautiful big eyes: "Cats like the smell of you."

The day before, he made an appointment with Lu Yu to work at Uncle Dai's place in exchange for pig knuckles. After patrolling the territory, Sen Wu hurried to Lu Yi's house.

A block away, Sen Wu keenly smelled the scent of several strange cats.

The owners of three of the scents stopped and retreated after smelling the marks they left. But there is another smell that invades Lu Shi's yard!

The anxious Senwu couldn't help but quicken his pace. Lu Shi's courtyard door was open, and his little civet flower was squatting at the door of the store, looking safe and sound.

As for the owner of the other smell, Senwu squinted his eyes and scanned the yard, and found a strange long-haired calico cat directly opposite Lu Yu.

Its sensitive ears clearly heard that the long-haired calico cat was saying to the little civet cat, "Cats like the smell of you."
