Lu Xi turned around and called Long Ruilin, who was about to go back to the house, to ask him to leave the cats behind. "Longlong, don't go back to the house yet. Open a can of milk for them to drink so that they can get more water."

"Oh, here it comes." Long Ruilin, who was halfway there with the cat in his arms, stopped and started walking back, driving away the kitten under his feet.

Lu Xi took out two wide-mouthed shallow cat bowls from the small cabinet next to her, placed them on the ground, and then picked out two cans of pure meat milkshake bought by the system.

Then, accompanied by a crisp "click", a can of fragrant cat food was slowly opened.

The tempting fragrance immediately began to spread around with Lu Xi as the center.

This sound and smell seemed to have pressed an invisible switch. The kittens that were originally following Long Ruilin and trying to climb onto him seemed to be activated in an instant, and they all rushed towards Lu Xi.

Even the one in Long Ruilin's arms began to struggle and wanted to jump down, but he grabbed her by the back of her neck and said, "Hey, don't be anxious. She was begging for a hug just now, but now she's rejecting me."

Looking at this scene, Lu Xi couldn't help but burst out laughing. The sound of opening a can actually became their conditioned reflex "assembly call". In just two days, they have learned to identify delicious food by listening to the sound.

She shook her head lovingly and said with a smile, "They are all reincarnated little greedy cats. They ran faster than anything else when they heard the sound. Their ears are so sharp. They can drink anything delicious, but they won't drink just some water.

Next time when we gather them together, we can play the sound of a can opening, and that will probably bring them together.”

Of course, the little guys below didn’t understand, and they responded to Lu Xi with meows.

And if she hadn't picked up the bowl with a can of milk in it in time, they would have probably dived into the bowl impatiently.

Long Ruilin walked over slowly with the remaining two in his arms, echoing what Lu Xi had just said: "This is a good idea. We don't have to shout anymore in the future."

But if you use it too much, it may no longer be effective. These little guys are slowly becoming smarter.

He helped Lu Xi open the other can of milk and pour it into another bowl. He also reached out and dropped two drops of spiritual spring water into each of the two bowls. "Give the little ones some nourishment. Now is the time for them to grow."

Lu Xi did not stop them. She put the milk on the stool next to her, stirred the spiritual spring water with a spoon, then poured a little water into each bowl, put them on the ground, and started letting the kittens drink.

Looking at the speed at which these little guys lick the food, it feels like it’s faster than those canned meats.

Maybe, children at a young age still like to drink milk.

Lu Xi sat aside, gently stroking each kitten's tail, which was raised high and swaying gently, her eyes full of pampering and emotion.

"They are all little gluttons. With the way we feed them now, they will probably grow into a group of fat, strong, round little guys, real 'half-hangs'! However, if we feed them healthily, they will be healthy, so it doesn't matter if they are a little fat. We can still afford to feed them."

Cats are pure carnivorous animals, so the things she fed them these two days, apart from cat food and canned meat, were the cat meals she made herself with meat and a little vegetables. In addition, the system had also prepared various calcium powders, multivitamins, etc. at the last visit to the pet store.

It is nutritious and very much suits the tastes of these little guys.

Especially those little tabby cats that used to be strays, they are very aggressive when eating, and they have the potential to grow into "half-hanging" cats.

Long Ruilin has seen a lot of cat videos in the past few days, so he naturally knows what this "half-hanging" means.

In his opinion, these little lives that are carefully cared for by humans no longer need to struggle for survival, and their fighting ability and wildness have almost been abandoned.

In fact, it’s pretty good to live in this society where the living space of animals is endlessly compressed.

Now they can eat and drink enough every day, eat whenever they want, play whenever they want, have a bunch of toys, and have an activity area as big as the entire base. This kind of life should be a happy one for them.

Long Ruilin wrapped his fingers around Nian Nian's little tail, and he also agreed with what Lu Xi had just said.

"Chubby ones do look better than skinny ones. I saw some videos saying cats have chubby cheeks. Their faces are chubby, but their bodies are not that fat. Can we feed them to look like that?"

"Ah, this." Lu Xi didn't know what to say. According to her understanding, only unneutered male cats could have puffy cheeks.

However, she has already planned to sterilize all the male and female cats after the vaccinations are completed.

The issue of growing cheeks probably has little to do with this litter of cats.

Lu Xi had no choice but to say tactfully: "Whether their cheeks grow bigger depends on their own situation. For our litter, I don't think it will grow much, but they may grow double chins due to obesity."

Long Ruilin didn't know that Lu Xi could actually look at cats. He pinched Nian Nian's fur with his little hands and continued to ask, "Nian Nian's fur is longer than the others. Could it be a long-haired kitten?"

Lu Xi could also see that the tabby cat's fur had grown a little longer, but it was really hard to say for sure.

According to the information she had crammed, if a cat has long hair, the hair will burst out after about six months, but these cats are not yet old enough.

“Well, they are still too old to be seen, so it is hard to say whether Nian Nian will grow into a long-haired cat.

Judging from Nian Nian's current appearance, she should have some potential, but it is also possible that she will become normal as she grows up. Other short-haired kittens may become long-haired cats because one of their ancestors has a long-haired gene. "

After all, the development of kittens is a gradual process, and their growth will not gradually stabilize until they are over one or even two years old.

Coupled with the impact of seasonal changes on hair, the current state cannot fully represent the future.

So it’s really hard to tell.

More importantly, the information that Lu Xi had crammed did not teach her to distinguish whether a kitten has long hair or short hair. Besides, if it was a genetic mutation, anything could be possible, so she couldn't make a definition too early.

"Oh, we have to wait until they grow up, which should be soon." Long Ruilin's eyes can see through many things, but he doesn't understand genes.
