The days of being a cat in Japan

It's been a really bad day for Caddy the Ragdoll.

On this day, it was expelled from the house by its original owner and officially became a stray cat. If the kind-hearted lady nurse expressed her willingness to take it in, I am afraid that it would have to continue its wandering life in this cold day. .

When everyone was driving back, Kaidi the puppet cat was very silent from the beginning to the end, as if all emotions of joy, anger, sorrow and joy had disappeared from her body, leaving only a shell.

Seeing this, Xu Jie scratched his head and wanted to comfort it, but he didn't know what to say.

After bringing the ragdoll back to the hospital, they temporarily returned the ragdoll to the same cage it was in.

And the puppet just came to the store just now, a cat curled up in the corner of the cage, neither eating nor drinking.

Miss Huimei was very anxious about this, but Dr. Fujimoto, who has rich experience in dealing with such things, persuaded her: "Huimei, don't worry too much, the little animals that have just been abandoned will have a period of depression, wait for them to adjust themselves , just walk out slowly."

After hearing the doctor's persuasion, Miss Huimei finally felt better.

But what she didn't know was that the doctor only said half of this sentence, and the latter sentence is different for each animal's ability to adapt. When it will come out and how long it will take to come out, this is uncertain.

Looking at the listless puppet cat lying in the cage, the doctor felt that the time needed would probably not be too short given the stubborn nature of this one.

After Nurse Huimei went to work, Dr. Fujimoto took the time to call the animal department for consultation, and learned that among the cats who had applied for a certificate, none of the cats had an owner named Ryuichi Kato.

Without basic documents, the doctor would not be able to know the immunity status of the Ragdoll cat, so everything would have to be arranged as if it had never been immunized.

Opening the notebook, the doctor began to file the puppet, sighing inwardly while typing.

It seems that the former owner of the puppet really didn't care much about the cat, otherwise, with the other party's financial resources and social status, it would be convenient to apply for a cat certificate.

Thinking about the attitude of the other party in the villa and what he said just now, Dr. Fujimoto felt that Mr. Kato didn't want to keep a cat because he loved cats.

He just wanted a rare, beautiful toy that he could take out and show off.

Since it's just a toy, of course I don't put too much thought into it.

And when that 'toy' is no longer fresh, or when a new 'toy' worth showing off appears, it is only a matter of time before the old one is discarded.

Doctors have encountered many cases like this, and they brought small animals home because of the impulsiveness of "it looks so cute" or "so cute, so cute, so I want to keep it".

And in the time getting along, when they found that the cute or cute little thing actually wanted to eat, drink, and have a mischievous or funny personality, and accidentally made a mess of their own home, Disgust gradually arises.

Non-punitive and educational scolding and scolding, even being kicked out of the house after being hurt, those people will not learn how to get along better with the furries at home, nor will they try to teach them how to adapt to being around humans Life.

Regardless of whether the animal is young or weak, whether it has the ability to survive alone, as long as the owners feel that these little things are gone, their lives can return to their usual peace, then abandonment will inevitably happen.

As a veterinarian and a volunteer in the protection of small animals, the doctor has encountered too many such things.

Although they are appealing to everyone to choose calmly and treat every life carefully, there are not a few people who choose to buy or adopt small animals every year because of brain fever or whim.

And the groups of wild cats and dogs on the street or in the park have also become larger and larger because of the irrationality of these people.

After the doctor tried his best to do more about this, there was nothing left but a sigh.

The puppet cat that was re-filed at the doctor's side that night was brought home by the nurse. It had been dewormed a few days ago. The immunization doctor decided to observe it for a few days and wait for the puppet's mood to stabilize. Injecting it.

The nurse's hometown is in the suburbs of the next county. She stayed here because she studied at the county university here and then worked as a doctor after graduation.

To be honest, the wages of pet nurses are not too high, as is the case in the industry, and Mr. Fujimoto can't be too unconventional.

However, the benefits provided by Mr. Fujimoto are very good. The nurses and assistants working here not only have working meals, but also rent subsidies.

For the convenience of going to work, Miss Huimei rented an old-fashioned old apartment near the pet hospital.

The landlord here has no objection to tenants raising all kinds of small animals because he himself keeps pets. Of course, the premise is that he can't damage his house or disturb other residents.

Because it is an old apartment for rent, although it has been carefully maintained, the state of the house can only be said to be average.

Although this is the case, Ms. Huimei likes living here very much, because there is a human touch that is rarely found in high-rise buildings outside.

The nurse carrying the cat cage went up to the second floor while greeting the neighbors, opened the door of the cage immediately after opening the door, and wanted to release the puppet cat inside.

It's a pity that Kaidi didn't want to cooperate with the nurse at all. It was still sluggishly lying in the cage, no matter how much the lady coaxed it, it would not come out.

Seeing this, the nurse had no choice but to open the cage door, lock the doors and windows inside the house, and take a change of clothes to the bathroom to take a shower.

After Miss Huimei left, only the sound of running water in the bathroom was the only silence in the room, and Kaidi the puppet cat raised her head to look carefully at her new home.

Compared with the nurse, Kaidi the puppet cat is actually more nervous.

Because it doesn't know what its future looks like, what the outside world will be like after stepping out of this cage, Ragdoll has no idea what it will be like.

Wanting to touch but afraid of being hurt again, the puppet cat is like a snail with a shell on its back. If there is a slight disturbance outside, it will immediately retract into the shell.

Now that it was finally quiet outside, the puppet, which was shrunk inside the shell, poked its head out to take a look.

The purpose of entry is a room that is not spacious but very clean. The whole room is not too big. It is only about five or six square meters by visual inspection, which is not as large as the room where it used to live alone.

On one side of the room are doors and windows, and on the other side are two small doors side by side, one for the toilet and bathroom, and the other for the kitchenette.

Because it is only rented, there are not many things in the room, but some basic supplies.

If you just look at these, the Ragdoll cat, who always pays attention to the quality of life, should be very disappointed, but it twitched its nose and sniffed in the room, and for some reason, it suddenly felt a lot better.

Well, no perfume smell, no air cleaner smell, just a faint smell of cosmetics.

In addition, the most intense smell in this room is a list of grass and wheat smells.

As if bewitched by that smell, the puppet cat, who was originally huddled in the cat cage and was unwilling to move, moved out bit by bit, carefully approaching the potted food emitting this smell.

Go a little further, go a little further, I can finally touch it, meow, although it looks like a pot of grass, it feels really good to the touch, what is it?The cat likes it very much.

Just when the puppet cat pressed to leave, pressed to leave, concentrating on "mutilating" the unknown plant seedlings, because she was worried about the cats outside, the nurse who only took a battle bath walked away from the bathroom with moisture all over her body. out.

Miss Huimei was very surprised to find that the puppet cat had come out of the cage. Even if the puppet cat was tearing her potted plant with its claws, the lady was still very happy.

The puppet cat was playing happily with the grass in the pot, when he heard someone above his head say: "Do you like it? Kaidi, the wheatgrass is planted here, it doesn't matter if you bite it and swallow it. Listen to the doctor's advice on this thing." It is said that it can help cats digest, so that you can spit out or excrete hairballs better. I took the seeds back from Mrs. Lihui back then, but I just wanted to plant them for fun, but I didn’t expect it to actually be used now.”

The puppet cat, who was burying its head in the grass, was taken aback for a moment, and then was hugged by Miss Huimei who quickly dried her body.

Because it was an acquaintance, the docile cat did not struggle, and then it was placed by the nurse in a cardboard box full of old clothes.

Touching the little head of the cat who was staring blankly at her in the box, Miss Huimei said with some guilt: "I'm sorry Kaidi, because I didn't expect to bring you home so suddenly, so I didn't prepare anything. Tonight I’m wronging you to sleep in this cardboard box for one night, and tomorrow I’ll take out my savings, and let’s go to Mrs. Lihui’s to pick out the cat litter you like, okay?”

The warm puppet cat meowed a few times in Miss Hui's arms. Although the quality of life now may not be comparable to that of the past, the cat just feels very at ease, especially at ease.
