Are you in love, I hide cat food for you

"A cat that looks very similar to you is missing." A familiar cat told him when he saw Tangyuan, "That cat looks very similar to you, and her owner calls him Nuomi."

Tang Yuan froze for a moment: "I know him."

Yuan Xiao recalled the last time she saw him, as if she really came to say goodbye.

Last time he said something similar to "I found her", but Yuan Xiao and the others didn't take it seriously.

Later, Yuan Xiao also heard that the owner of Nuomi used to post pictures of Nuomi in the places where he used to frequent, and occasionally brought some canned cat food, hoping that the stray cats nearby would find the lost Nuomi for her.

"But I haven't seen her coming for a long time." The talking cat led Yuan Xiao and Tang Yuan to a bulletin board, and showed them one of the cat hunting notices that had been mostly covered by other stickers.

"You know, human beings always have their own lives..." The speaking cat's tone was still inevitably a bit disappointed, "They have many important people and things, and a cat is not that special. "

"Right?"

……

The cats who knew about this incident felt sorry for Nuomi for a while, especially the stray cats who had been abandoned.

But every cat has its own affairs, so soon the matter of Nuomi was gradually no longer mentioned by cats.

Yuan Xiao originally thought that they would never see Nuomi again, but she didn't expect to see him again just a few months later.

Yuanxiao and the others saw Nuomi again, the day when Ning Xiao took them to the cemetery in early spring.

Ning Xiao stopped in front of a tombstone, and the two cats at her feet squatted peacefully beside her, but their eyes subconsciously scanned the surrounding environment.

Tang Yuan first noticed the commotion in a few cemeteries, and after a while, there was silence, and a raccoon cat came out from behind with a mouse in its mouth, and placed the mouse in its mouth in front of a tombstone.

Take a closer look, and there are a few weird-looking bugs in front of it, a branch and a few shiny small stones.

Tang Yuan looked at the cat, and touched Yuan Xiao next to him: "Does he look a lot like Nuomi?"

Yuan Xiao heard the words and looked over. Although the cat was a lot thinner than Nuomi when they met last time, and looked a whole circle smaller than the fluffy glutinous rice balls, it did indeed have the appearance of Nuomi.

The cihuamao on the opposite side also noticed them, looked at them for a while, lowered its head to pick and choose, and came over with two grasshoppers in its mouth: "Do you want to eat?"

Hearing a familiar voice, Yuan Xiao confirmed the identity of the cat that came over: "Nuomi?"

"Yeah." Nuomi nodded, "It's me."

"Have you found your master?"

"She's here." Nuomi turned her head and glanced at the tombstone not far away.

And Ning Xiao also noticed this strange cat, she hesitated and opened the dialog box of Nuomi's owner: "Last time you said where you found Nuomi, did he lose it recently?"

"Have you seen glutinous rice?"

"It might be him." Ning Xiao wasn't too sure.

"Are you in the xx cemetery?"

"Correct."

"That should be Nuomi. Last time I found him here too."

The person on the opposite side paused, probably worried that Ning Xiao would have unnecessary worries about Nuomi's stay here, and she added: "This place is more suitable for him, he likes it here."

-

"My master is here." Nuomi smiled, "I want to stay here with her."

"Your master, what kind of person is she?"

"Probably someone completely different from your master." Nuomi thought for a while.

She is weak, introverted, and submissive, and she has no sense of existence in the crowd. When she is sad, she will just bury her face in his fluff and cry silently, and she can't even cry.

But she can also be very brave, snatching a stray cat that is dying of abuse from the hands of a man taller than herself. She can hardly straighten her back, but she still firmly says: "This is my cat..."

But obviously they have nothing to do with each other, they are just a stray cat who was unlucky and used to vent their anger, and a passerby passing by by chance.

The stray cat without a name was brought back just like that, and the girl treated his wound carefully. Halfway through the treatment, the fear of the man surged up belatedly, and tears couldn't help falling down. on the desktop.

The stray cat looked at the girl with a bit of fear on her face, endured the discomfort of her body, supported her head, licked her face, wiped away the remaining tears, and then lay back on the table exhausted.

After treating the stray cat's wound, she tentatively stretched out two fingers and touched the top of his head twice: "I will raise you in the future, okay?"

Although the tone was inquiring, it didn't give the stray cat a chance to refuse: "I want to give you a name, can I call you Nuomi?"

The stray cat lay on the table and looked at her quietly. Just now, she was like a frightened little mouse, but now she is happy again, only the red eye sockets are still red, and there are shallow dimples on her face.

Nuomi remembered how frightened she was by that man, and thought, human beings are so fragile, I have to protect her.

She is always introverted, inarticulate, and refuses without understanding. As her cat, Nuomi has learned to arch her body to show her aggressive side, and even wave her paws to try to scare away those who are malicious to her. people.

After being adopted, Nuomi realized that this human being still has so many fears. He is afraid of the dark. Because he was locked up in a small room without light when he was a child, he must be with him when there is a power outage. I can sleep well, but I am afraid of bugs, so I often use a long-handled broom to smack my eyes, and the glutinous rice always ends up killing the bugs.

Nuomi sometimes worries that she won't be able to accompany her for a long time with the cat's lifespan, but she doesn't want a second cat to take her place in the family.

She sometimes picks up some injured cats and dogs and brings them back, but Nuomi can accept them to stay at home for a few days, but she doesn't want them to stay. She seems to understand Nuomi's desire to monopolize, and when the situation gets better, she will look for suitable adoptions. People sent them away.

After sending them off, she hugged the jealous cat and coaxed her, saying "I love you" and "You are my favorite cat".

You don't need to love me very much, Nuomi thought, it's okay, I will love you twice as much.

He never thought that one day, she would leave this world earlier than himself.

She was very ill.

Nuomi remembers the white hospital he saw from afar, the unpleasant smell of disinfectant around him, and the weak human lying on the hospital bed.

Pets cannot be brought into the hospital, so she found someone to take care of Nuomi before she was hospitalized.

As her condition deteriorated step by step, the "wait for me to take you home" that she had said through the screen became empty words, and she finally failed to walk out of the hospital.

Most of the inheritance was left by her to the promising adopter, who asked him to take good care of the cat, and donated the rest.

Nuomi, who hadn't seen her for a long time, secretly followed the current owner, but ran into her funeral, was soon discovered, and was finally taken back.

He ran out many times later, and asked different cats about the location of the cemetery. Finally, one evening, he saw a familiar photo on a tombstone.

Seeing some fruits and flowers in front of other tombstones, he put the small white flowers that he picked up from the roadside on the ground, and later let go of the mice, bugs, and frogs he caught... But the people on the tombstones are always smiling, Never yelling his name in terror again.

……

On the way back, Yuan Xiao glanced back. In the twilight, Nuomi, who had lost a lot of weight, was leaning against the tombstone.

He looked up at the girl above who would never respond to him again, and rubbed his head against the tombstone in attachment.

"You are always afraid of the dark." He lowered his head, picked up a branch that had just sprouted and put it in front of him. The mice and bugs had been transferred to other places by him.

Although Nuomi knew long ago that she would never get any response to these things, whether it was good or bad, he still repeated this childish little trick day after day.

But when it was dark, he moved everything she would be afraid of into the distance.

"Don't be afraid."

"I'll always be here with you."

He repeated it again as if emphasizing: "I will always be with you."

The author has something to say: Does the story of Nuomi seem to be a bit abused, scratching my head
