Chapter 575 The cutie in the pipe

"Grandpa said these are all stray cats, right?" Lu Jingxing asked grandma.

The four of them walked to the right of the wall pointed by grandma as they talked.

This is a small house made of bricks and stones, only about one meter high. The old man also painted the wall with blue paint. There is a glass wall on the front, so you can see the cat inside from the front.

"I'm going to get some food, you can grab it slowly." Grandma said and trotted towards the house.

Lu Jingxing opened the cat cages. It would be okay to put two in each cat cage.

Most of the cats here are garden cats, mostly orange cats.

Xiao Liu looked at the cats and wanted to catch them, but Lu Jingxing immediately stopped him: "Go and wear some gloves." Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If you are caught, you have to get an injection, which is very troublesome, and the injection is also very painful. .

Xiao Liu stuck out his tongue. He had been trained to do this. He forgot about it. He immediately took out the gloves from his bag and put them on, and started to catch the cat.

They caught everything they could find, and put the unneutered ones directly into cages, while the neutered ones were placed on the other side of the small room to isolate them.

One, two, three... I caught four smoothly. Once caught like this, all those smart little guys scattered and didn't even eat.

The one in the cage here is running around and rushing out desperately.

Grandma was very distressed when she saw it: "Be good, I won't hurt you..." But obviously her comfort could not calm the little guys down.

A small gray and white cat saw Lu Jingxing and the others and rushed towards the hill. Lu Jingxing followed closely behind. It disappeared like a small loach in a flash.

Looking at the direction it was running, the old man patted his thigh and said, "It's broken. It's probably going to get into the sewer pipe."

Lu Jingxing lay down and looked into the pipe, right? The little guy turned around inside, huddled up, and looked at him with bright eyes.

No matter what Lu Jingxing said, it just refused to come out.

"It and its mother just came here not long ago. Hey, where is its mother?" The old man turned around and didn't see the mother cat.

Lu Jingxing took out a can from his bag, opened it and placed it at the mouth of the pipe. After waiting for a while, the little guy couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food and poked his head out, but as soon as Lu Jingxing and the others got closer, it retracted again.

Lu Jingxing turned on the flashlight and looked inside, and found that there was actually a pipe inside, and the little guy was still drilling in. When Lu Jingxing turned around and looked again, the little guy was gone.

The old man said that this was an abandoned pipe, but the other end was buried underground. He didn't know the specific situation.

This is not easy.

"Hey, Huahua is here..." The old man pointed at a female cat that was all white and had yellow hair on its head and ears walking against the wall and shouted: "This is the little guy's mother..."

Lu Jingxing gained confidence again.

He quickly took out another cat strip from his pocket to bribe Huahua. He looked at Huahua and it seemed that she had not been neutered. He felt a little unsure. He didn't catch the other small one, and the big one also ran away, but he had to catch the small one. I can only wonder if my mother can call it out.

Huahua liked the cat strips very much. When she smelled the fragrance, she trotted over and started eating them with a "wow, wow, wow" sound.

He opened his heart and said: "Huahua, call the baby out, we won't hurt it..."

Huahua glanced at him warily, and he quickly took out another one: "If you call me, this is all yours..." Maybe the old man and his friends had more of the usual broth and rice, and so many little ones didn't have enough snacks to feed them. So Huahua has no resistance to cat strips.

After eating one, it looked at Lu Jingxing: "Meow... are all mine? Will they not harm the baby?..."

"Yes, I promise not to hurt it..." Doesn't it count as harm?

Huahua bit the cat strip on Lu Jingxing's hand and followed towards the cave entrance without any hesitation and started barking inside.

Sure enough, after Huahua called him, the little guy poked his head out again. Lu Jingxing was fully prepared this time. When Huahua called him, he prepared the pole and hid by the flower fence above the pipe. When he saw the little guy As soon as the guy's smaller body came out, he quickly dropped the pole and covered its head.

Before the little guy could react, after Lu Jingxing picked it up, the whole cat suddenly entered a fighting state, saying to Lu Jingxing, "Meow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! Let me go..." with an exaggerated and even ferocious expression. .

Lu Jingxing looked at its little appearance and thought it was a little cute: "Be good, I won't do anything to you..." Looking at the little guy like this, a person like Ji Ling who usually names cats suddenly popped into his mind. In the scene [Little Cutie in the Pipe], he secretly enjoyed himself after the name popped up. This was a bit seriously affected by Ji Ling, and he couldn't even pick a name properly.

Then he put [the cutie in the pipe] into the cage.

When Huahua saw Lu Jingxing put the baby into the cage and the cat didn't eat, she ran over nervously and kept circling the cage.

The old man said that Huahua was not sterilized, so Lu Jingxing simply refused to do anything and caught Huahua too and put him and the "cutie in the pipe" into a cage.

Lu Jingxing listened to the [little cutie in the pipe] in the cage complaining to his mother: "Okay, we've all been caught, and you tricked me into getting out..."

Huahua licked its hair and said, "They said they wouldn't hurt you... Meow..."

Lu Jingxing smiled and wanted to hook it, but [the little cutie in the pipe] immediately raised his ears and said to Lu Jingxing, "Fufufu! Ha!"

The little guy is still very vigilant, but his mother is very Buddhist. She even suppressed the [little cutie in the pipe]. The little guy looked unconvinced and pounced on Lu Jingxing outside the cage. Fortunately, Lu Jingxing guarded him. This move, otherwise I'm afraid it will leave a hole.

"I promise I'm doing it for your own good and will send you back soon..." As he said this, he saw a little guy who looked very similar to the "cutie in the pipe" secretly hiding in the outdoor unit of the air conditioner under the corner. To see him.

Lu Jingxing slowly came closer. When it saw Lu Jingxing approaching, it kept hiding inside the air conditioner. When Lu Jingxing reached out, it immediately pounced to the left. Lu Jingxing followed suit to the left out of instinctive reaction. He pounced, but he didn't expect it to react so quickly. When Lu Jingxing changed hands, he jumped to the right and jumped out.

Good guy, he can still make false claims in the east and attack in the west.

But it didn't expect that Lu Jingxing was faster than it, so he grabbed it by the neck and picked it up.

After being caught, the little guy screamed loudly, and the sound was even worse than the [cutie in the pipe] screamed.

"You are a bad person, you are a bad person, you have arrested my brother and you are going to arrest me...let me go...meow-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa She scratched Lu Jingxing with her hands and feet.

However, the little guy is cuter than the "cutie in the pipe", and his voice also has a note, so no matter how fierce it is, it doesn't feel harsh.

Okay, this is still a little female cat. Let’s reunite the family of three. Lu Jingxing put the three of them into a cage together.

The yard is open, but not completely sealed, because the old man and the others are only responsible for feeding the little guys and don't lock them up every day, so after catching a few, the other cats dispersed.

Lu Jingxing lifted the cages together and gained quite a lot, catching seven or eight animals together.

Grandma was constantly comforting the restless little ones in the cage. Lu Jingxing walked over and said, "Grandma, it's okay. This is normal. We will send them back after the operation."

"Okay, okay, I know..." Grandma stood up with her knees blocked: "Well, I just don't know how long we can take care of them..." Grandma sighed.

The always optimistic old man sighed softly and almost inaudibly. Lu Jingxing had an ominous premonition in his heart. Is something going on with the two old people?

The old man looked at Lu Jingxing's expression. He was a smart kid, and he immediately thought of it. He pretended to be relaxed and said, "Xiao Lu, I actually have something else to ask you."

Lu Jingxing nodded: "Old man, you said, as long as I can do it..."

He helped carry a cage and walked out. Lu Jingxing followed him, holding one in each hand: "Xiao Lu, I really can't worry about these little guys. I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease a while ago, and the doctor said that we should do this too." Surgery is not possible, but the doctor also said that it is not serious now, so we should not take it to heart, I am just afraid..."

The old man is a little worried. He has too much to let go of, so he should arrange one thing at a time.

Lu Jingxing didn't know how to comfort him, so he said that the old man's hands were shaking badly yesterday. At that time, he guessed that it was Parkinson's disease, but he looked fine today. The old man's complexion also looked good: "Grandpa, you Don’t worry too much, this disease shouldn’t come on so quickly. As long as you recover well, you’ll be fine. You are blessed by God. You see how much you love life and care for small animals, you will be fine.”

"Haha, yes, you can still make the old man happy, but I still want to say, if I can't take care of these little guys in the future, can you help take care of them? This is the biggest reason why I came to you today. ." The old man looked at him.

Lu Jingxing didn't even think about it: "That's no problem. We often rescue stray cats and dogs. Most of you are also stray cats. When do you feel you can't bear it anymore, call me and I'll take all the orders for you. ." He gave the old man reassurance. He knew that the old man must be afraid that if he couldn't take care of her, grandma wouldn't be able to take care of her alone.

The old man relaxed now, as if he had finally done something important: "I feel relieved now. You don't know how long I have been worried. I can't sleep when I think about these little guys having nowhere to go and no one to care about them."

Lu Jingxing smiled slightly: "This is nothing. You can rest in peace and recuperate. Don't take this as a burden. I dare to guarantee it for you..."

"That's enough. Hey, old lady, let Xiao Lu and the others eat here. He promised that he will help take care of these little guys in the future." The old man turned around and called grandma. Grandma was counting with Xiao Liu when she heard him shouting "busy" stood up.
