Snowball slipped out of Snowy's arms and walked towards the cat bag, because it vaguely heard a very subtle purring coming from the cat bag. Although there was a cat's smell in the cat bag, the sound was not the same as ordinary cat meowing. Snowball's natural curiosity made it want to know what was making the sound.
"Meow!"
However, a black and white kitten blocked its way, so it had to stop and vigilantly examine the black and white kitten to see if it was hostile.
It didn't see when the black and white kitten appeared, but it seemed to have appeared there in the blink of an eye.
Snowball was not afraid. Even in the face of Good-For-Nothing, it would still attack bravely. However, Fina was here, so it didn't dare to act recklessly.
The black and white kitten didn't seem to have any intention of attacking. Instead, it raised a front paw and waved at it like a human, as if it was indicating that it should follow it.
Snowball looked at the cat bag, then at the black and white kitten, wondering which one was more interesting.
"White kitty, black and white kitty …"
Yue Yue hobbled over, grinning and stuttering.
Snowball looked back at Yue Yue, and it was that one look that made it lose the initiative.
Its head was gently patted by a furry paw. It suddenly looked back and found that the black and white kitten had jumped to the shelf like a wisp of smoke.
Snowball was furious. It couldn't care less about the cat bag and chased after the black and white kitten. However, the black and white kitten was fast and flexible, and it was particularly familiar with the terrain. It circled around a few shelves in a "8" shape, and occasionally drilled under the shelves, making Snowball exhausted.
Yue Yue turned around and followed Snowball to the shelf.
Liu Wenying glanced at it and raised her voice, "Yue Yue, be careful not to hit it."
Yue Yue looked back and said with a smile, "White kitty, black and white kitty …"
The girl who was obsessed with the Ragdoll finally made up her mind to eat dirt for the next six months. She borrowed enough money from Alibaba and credit cards, and bought the Ragdoll kitten. She asked Zhang Zian to send more pet supplies, and then tragically went to the cashier to pay. This was the largest sum of money she had ever spent in her life.
Zhang Zian was in a good mood after the deal was done. He asked her to go to the shelves to choose small items such as food bowls and water bowls that she liked.
Seeing someone walking towards the shelves, Xinghai turned around and ran to the stairs on the second floor.
Snowball was already tired of chasing, and had even forgotten why it was chasing in the first place. It stopped, panting, and turned back to find Snowy, seeking comfort from its master.
Out of the corner of his eye, Zhang Zian saw Xinghai's movement and was surprised. Xinghai usually hid on the second floor when there were many people downstairs. Why was she playing on the first floor today?
"Roar ~"
Just then, a shrill cry broke the peace of the pet shop.
Everyone present was shocked. They stopped what they were doing and looked around, wondering which cat was howling.
Some of the cats in the shop were lively, and some were cold, but all of them were very quiet. Even if they meowed, they would only meow in a low voice. Could it be that a stray cat had sneaked in?
Fina and Famous, who were dozing off, were awakened by the howl. Fina, in particular, was very unhappy. How could a cat do whatever it wanted under its nose?
Because there were so many cats in the shop, no one knew where the sound came from at first. Only Yue Yue stumbled towards the cat carrier.
A moment later, another shrill cry came from the cat carrier, and it sounded very creepy.
"Hey, Sister Wenying, your cat … seems to be very sick." Zhao Qi heard the cry and felt a chill run down her spine.
Liu Wenying was also confused. "It's really sick, but it's never called it that before …"
Zhang Zian also came to the side of the cat carrier and looked inside through the gauze window, but it was too dark in the cat carrier to see anything.
Liu Wenying apologized to the surrounding customers. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Did I scare everyone? My cat didn't used to cry like this. Who knows what's wrong with it today … I think I should go and wait at the clinic. "
Zhao Qi saw that she was afraid of disturbing other customers, so she stopped trying to persuade her.
Zhang Zian squatted in front of the cat carrier and turned on the flashlight function of his phone. A bright cone-shaped light illuminated the inside of the cat carrier.
Seeing the appearance of the Siamese cat, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and fine beads of sweat oozed out of his palms.
It looked very messy. The cat's fur was matted and stuck to its body, and it reeked of vomit.
What was particularly eye-catching were its lifeless blue-gray eyes, and the edges of the corneas were red and swollen.
Its mouth was half open, and sticky saliva was dripping from its sharp canine teeth.
The moment the light shone on it, it reacted very strongly. It twisted its body violently, as if it didn't want to be shone by the light. One of its front paws was twitching.
Since Zhang Zian was shining the light into the cat carrier, Liu Wenying was too embarrassed to pick up the cat carrier and leave immediately.
Zhang Zian turned off the flashlight function, thought for a moment, and asked, "How many days has this cat been sick?"
"A few days … I'm not sure, but probably a few days," Liu Wenying answered. "I've been too busy recently, and I haven't had much time to care for it. A few days ago, I felt that it didn't eat much, and it didn't drink much water. Every day when I came home, the cat food and water I put in its food bowl was almost untouched."
"Did it vomit?" Zhang Zian asked again.
"Yes!" Liu Wenying nodded immediately. "There was cat hair mixed in the vomit. I heard that this often happens when it's molting in the spring. I thought that it had cat hair in its stomach, so it had no appetite, so I bought some hair cream for it to eat … But after two days, it didn't work. It still vomited, and it still didn't eat. It looked like it was losing weight … If I didn't know better, I would think that I was abusing the cat."
Snowy originally wanted to continue to cut Snowball's fur, but after listening to Liu Wenying's story, she immediately remembered that Snowball had also vomited this morning, and its vomit was mixed with cat hair. She held Snowball and listened attentively.
Liu Wenying paused, and then said,
"Look at how dirty it is. Not only does it vomit, but sometimes after vomiting, it trips itself and falls into its own vomit. Its body is covered in dirt. I saw that it was too dirty, so I said that I would give it a bath, but when I carried it into the bathroom, it scratched like crazy … Look at my arm, it scratched all over. Fortunately, I just cut its nails a few days ago, or I would be miserable. It used to take a bath, but it shouldn't be like this. "
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves.
Zhao Qi covered her mouth in surprise because there were red marks all over Liu Wenying's forearm, but no blood could be seen.
Zhang Zian frowned and stared at the marks on her arm. After a while, he looked at Yue Yue and saw that the little girl had chased Snowball to Snowy's side.
"Yue Yue didn't get scratched?" he asked.
Liu Wenying put down her sleeves and smiled. "No. Cats are too dirty, and they don't let me bathe. Children have weak immune systems, so I didn't let Yue Yue play with it for the past few days. It's not the weekend now, so I plan to take it to the pet clinic to see what kind of disease it has. If it needs an injection, then it will be fine. It never scratched people before, so now it must be because it is sick. I don't blame it. After it is cured, I will take it to your place for a bath. I heard that you have a new automatic dog washing machine. I want to try it and post it on my WeChat Moments to show my friends. Haha! "
She had dealt with Zhang Zian several times and knew his personality. She wanted to make a joke, but Zhang Zian didn't smile at all. He looked very serious, so she laughed a few times and stopped.
"What's wrong? Is it bad? Can you tell what kind of disease it has? Is it … an incurable disease? "Zhao Qi didn't laugh and asked Zhang Zian nervously.
Liu Wenying clenched her fists. "It can't be. I feel that its body temperature is higher than usual. Does it have a cold or a fever? "
Zhang Zian took a deep breath. "Let me say this first. I am not a licensed veterinarian, so my judgment may not be accurate. Please take it as a reference."
Liu Wenying nodded. "Store Manager Zhang, you are too modest. Last time I saw you, you could tell that the dog was full just by touching it. You also told us to use the position of the last rib to determine whether the dog was full or not. When I told my friends who raise dogs, they were all stunned."
"Then I will be straightforward. Your cat may not be cured," Zhang Zian said frankly.
"What?" Liu Wenying suddenly had mixed feelings.
Her first concern was the money spent on buying the cat. If it really couldn't be cured, the money would be wasted. Secondly, if Fluffy couldn't be cured, she couldn't explain it to Yue Yue, and Yue Yue would definitely cry for a long time. Finally, she was more or less hoping that Zhang Zian's judgment might not be accurate. After all, he was not a professional veterinarian.
Zhang Zian immediately said, "But right now, the cat is not important. The most important thing is you! Your top priority now is to go to the nearest hospital or epidemic prevention station and get yourself a rabies vaccine. Push everything else aside! Also, are you sure that Yue Yue wasn't scratched or bitten? "
There were a few customers lining up next to the cashier. Including Lu Yiyun and Snowy, they all heard the conversation between Zhang Zian and Liu Wenying. In an instant, the conversation spread throughout the pet shop!
Liu Wenying's brain buzzed, as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer. All the blood in her body rushed to the top of her head. She staggered and almost fell.
Zhao Qi was standing next to her. She quickly held her. "Sister Wenying!"
The audience in the live broadcast room had originally expressed that they wanted to marry Liu Wenying because of Yue Yue's cuteness. When they heard this, they suddenly exploded.
"Rabies? Store Manager Zhang, you can't joke about this! "
"Really? Cats can also transmit rabies? "
"Mother-in-law, don't just stand there. Hurry to the hospital! Oh my, I'm so worried! "
"What the f * ck! That's crazy — I mean the one who sent the bullet screen just now! "
Snowy's breathing stagnated. She subconsciously looked down at Snowball in her arms. Its eyes were still clear and transparent.
