Daily Life in the Pet Shop Ch. 137
Fang Yi was very pleased that the little kitten knew to honor him with its mother's things after being outside for a few days. This felt good. In order to prevent the little kitten from being sad, Fang Yi put on gloves and picked up the dead mouse that the little kitten brought to him. He planned to throw the mouse away when the little kitten was not paying attention.
Who knew that when Fang Yi was about to leave, the little kitten called out, and the voice sounded very aggrieved. It hugged Fang Yi's legs and refused to let him go.
"Meow, meow, meow." The little kitten saw Fang Yi just leaving like that, and its face was almost wrinkled in anxiety. It hugged Fang Yi's legs and refused to let go.
"Du Qianze, Du Qianze, come in quickly." It was the first time that Fang Yi saw such a persistent little kitten. He didn't know what it wanted, so he had to call Du Qianze over to ask how he taught the little kitten during this period.
"Did it give you a mouse?" Du Qianze couldn't help but secretly laugh when he saw that Fang Yi was not able to get away because of a cat.
"Here it is, a little mouse." Fang Yi brought the little mouse to Du Qianze.
"Ahem." Du Qianze was more certain about what was going on when he saw the little mouse, and said directly to Fang Yi, "There are a few mice at my parents' house. When the little kitten and the little puppy are bored, they go to catch one, but they don't eat it. They will put it in front of my parents and exchange it for delicious food. Now you have taken the little kitten's mouse and don't give it food. How can it not be angry?"
"..." Fang Yi felt that he hadn't lived long enough and had been too short-sighted. Wasn't it said that when a cat gave someone a mouse, it did so because it thought the person needed it for food? So why had it suddenly become a reward for him?
Although he said so, Fang Yi couldn't discourage the enthusiasm of the little kitten. Most of the cats in the backyard were stray cats. If they had one more skill, they would be able to go out and mix. Fang Yi threw the cage on the ground, and then took the little kitten to the table at the front desk. After throwing the mouse, he took a box of canned food and put it in front of the little kitten, asking it if it was enough.
The kitten had always been fed with milk before, but when it came to the Du family, it rarely ate cat food because Mother Du spoiled it. It asked for snacks and meals every day. Mother Du looked up things that cats could not eat on the Internet and cooked some small crucian carp or chicken for the kitten. The kitten no longer liked to eat cat food and pestered Mother Du for cooked food every day.
Later, when it found that there were mice at home, it went to catch mice. When it caught mice, it showed them to Mother Du or Father Du, and then Mother Du would praise it for being well-behaved and give it food. In fact, it didn't happen many times.
Du Qianze heard Mother Du mention this kind of thing, probably only two or three times. Unexpectedly, the kitten identified this pattern and exchanged mice for food.
The kitten had never eaten canned food before, so it sniffed the canned food that Fang Yi took out and pushed it away with disgust.
"Otherwise, add another box." Fang Yi put two boxes of canned food in front of the kitten. The kitten was very dissatisfied and looked at Fang Yi with disgust.
"Naima, go call its mother over." Fang Yi remembered that the kitten had never eaten canned food before, so it could ignore it.
Not long after, Naima came back from the backyard. The kitten's mother followed behind Naima, walked over and jumped onto the table, squatting directly next to the two cans of canned food. The kitten cried a few times at it in grievance, and the mother cat responded seriously, then slapped the kitten down with one paw.
The table was not high, so the kitten was not injured when the mother cat slapped it. It was just a little aggrieved. It was okay that it could not get the delicious food, but it was beaten.
The kitten looked up at Fang Yi, then looked at the mother cat, and turned to look for Naima. Never mind, Naima was not as good as the biological mother.
The mother cat saw that the kitten went out to play, and she was not worried. She squatted beside the can, looked at Fang Yi, shook her tail, tilted her head and meowed to Fang Yi a few times.
"Okay, okay, I'll take it to your nest." Fang Yi knew what the mother cat meant. The can was so big that the mother cat could not carry it away, and it was not convenient to drag it. She was even more worried about leaving it with Fang Yi. She had to put it in her own nest.
Fang Yi helped the mother cat put the can in the nest. Just as he was about to leave, he was pulled by the mother cat again. She turned around and picked up another mouse from the corner and put it in front of Fang Yi.
"No reward, and don't bring mice to the backyard next time." After a while, the mother cat also learned equal exchange with the kitten. This must not work. If this deal was really done, Fang Yi could foresee that the backyard would be full of dead mice in the future.
The mother cat howled at Fang Yi a few times in anger, and walked away angrily. Just a few steps, she ran back and took the dead mouse back.
Fang Yi: ...
What he just said was in vain.
Fang Yi settled the small animals and said that the weather was cold now, so he asked Du Qianze to sleep in his room. Anyway, his bed was big.
Du Qianze was a little entangled. Thinking of the tragedy of taking a cold shower last time, he didn't want to go up, but when he thought of the welfare he saw last time— Du Qianze's mind was immediately filled with half-naked upper bodies, and he answered yes without hesitation.
Fang Yi called Naima and took Du Qianze into the room. When entering, he was very cautious and locked the door tightly, which made Du Qianze puzzled. He had stayed here before. Because there were animals guarding the second floor, it was still very safe. Fang Yi did not lock the door most of the time, so why did he lock it today?
Du Qianze came out of the shower and saw Fang Yi talking to Naima in the living room. The door was slammed loudly, and there were a few wailing sounds.
"This is..." Du Qianze felt particularly miserable when he heard the sound outside the door.
"Naiba." Fang Yi took the time to answer Du Qianze's question, and then continued to talk to Naima, "Look, it's been so noisy, and we can't sleep well. It's lonely for a dog outside. Otherwise, let it in."
Naima barked loudly a few times, obviously disagreeing with Fang Yi's proposal.
