Chapter 177 The lethality of cute pets, Damaiya made up his mind to adopt Xiaomaiya
Chen An sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the kitten and put it in Damaiya's arms. Looking at Damaiya's cautious look, he couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, but his face showed a bitter expression and he began his performance.
"This little guy is so pitiful. The cat father was irresponsible and abandoned it and its mother and daughter. It has several older brothers and sisters. It was fine at first, but the kittens are getting bigger and bigger, and the mother cat can't feed so many sisters. This little guy is so small because it often doesn't have food. In fact, it is more than four months old. The other kittens are half its size."
When Da Mai heard this, he had a distressed expression on his face and carefully stroked the kitten's head with his fingers, "What a poor little thing..."
"Brother Xiaowu, is there any food there? Did it cry just now because it's hungry?"
Chen An touched his nose and said, "Maybe I'm hungry, but more likely I'm missing my mother..."
Da Mai blinked and looked at Chen An, "Brother Xiaowu, so are you going to adopt it?"
"Of course there's no problem in adopting it. After all, it's just a little guy and can't eat much. But the smallest dogs I've come into contact with before were half a meter tall. I'm afraid I can't take good care of such a small guy. Besides, I don't sleep well and it's easy for me to roll over and crush it. I think there are already two cats in the yard, so one more shouldn't be a big deal."
"But, but it's still so young, will it be bullied?" Da Mai was very worried and wanted to adopt the dog himself, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to take good care of it.
Looking at Damai's appearance, Chen An explained, "Don't be fooled by its small size now. Its parents are both purebred tabby cats. This breed has been carefully selected by our ancestors for thousands of years."
"When they grow up, they will definitely be the King of Cats. The tabby cat has good adaptability and can survive in different environments. It is smart and has a strong learning ability. It is strong and has first-class disease resistance. It is very lively and active, and has good independence. It can play by itself or with its owner."
Da Mai was very interested after hearing this, but suddenly his shoulders dropped and his expression became even more conflicted.
Chen An decided to add fuel to the fire. "When I was chatting with the cat's owner, she told me that when the little guy's mother was not pregnant, she basically didn't need to worry about it. She would go out hunting by herself, often away for several days, and occasionally bring back birds and mice for her, for fear that the owner was too lazy and starved to death."
"She is also very loyal and protective of her owner. When she goes out, if she sees another dog that dares to take advantage of her, the cat will not care about the size of the dog and will immediately rush over to scratch it."
Seeing that everything was almost ready, Chen An rubbed Da Mai's head to comfort him, "So you don't have to worry. Even though it's small now and doesn't have parents to take care of it, as long as it gets through this period and grows up, it can hunt and feed itself, and it will definitely not be bullied because it doesn't have a mother to take care of it..."
Seeing that Chen An was about to put the little raccoon back into his bag, Da Mai quickly dodged and looked at Chen An pitifully, "Brother Xiaowu, I'm still worried about it. How about I take care of it for a while, wait until it grows up a little, and then let it live on its own, okay?"
"No, no, Xiao Maizi, you can't even take care of yourself, and adding another kitten will be too much trouble. This guy sheds hair and needs to go to the toilet. You should just leave it to Aunt Gui. At most, I'll pay for the cat food, and we'll be doing a good deed."
"No." Da Mai shook her head. Aunt Agui was so busy all day, she definitely couldn't take good care of such a little creature. She was worried, so she could only reach out and pull Chen An's sleeve and shake it, "Little, Fifth Brother, can you let me adopt it? I really like it. Look how close it is to me..."
Chen An was amused in his heart, but his face was still a little tangled. Finally, he sighed helplessly, "If that's the case, then you can give it a try first. If it really doesn't work, I'll send it to a stray pet shelter. Although it may be bullied there, at least they are professionals and will definitely take better care of it than we do..."
"Don't worry, Brother Xiaowu. I, I can definitely take good care of it." Da Mai's face lit up with joy. He lifted the little guy in front of him and put his nose sticker against the kitten's nose. It felt cool and very comfortable. He was so happy in his heart that he finally had his own little pet.
Chen An reminded, "Da Mai, this little guy doesn't have a name yet. He was called Xiao Liu because he is the youngest of six kittens. Now that you want to adopt him, shouldn't you give him a name?"
"Brother Xiaowu, its name is Xiaoliu?" Da Mai couldn't help but grinning as he looked at Chen An.
He rolled his eyes at Da Mai and said unhappily, "You live in room four, so should I call you Xiao Si?"
Da Mai suddenly laughed out loud, "Then according to what you said, doesn't that mean Teacher Hu should be called Xiao San?"
"Yes, Master Ma is called Xiaoer, and Nana is called Xiaoyi?" Chen An touched his nose, "Why is it so awkward? It seems like I've been taken advantage of for no reason. Xiaoyi, Auntie?"
"Hehe, then Hongdou will become Xiaoliu..."
Seeing Da Mai's expression, Chen An quickly reminded him, "Okay, let's get off topic. Use your intelligence and give this little guy a name."
Barley stroked his chin and said, "With this color, why not call it Little Flower?"
Chen An covered his forehead and said, "Xiao Maizi, you are a writer. What about your cultural level and your usual qualities? Xiaohua, do you think it's appropriate?"
"How is Xiaomi?" Da Mai asked tentatively.
Chen An shook his head.
Da Mai thought hard for a long time. There were many names that she couldn't even think of. She couldn't think of a suitable name. She could only look at Chen An for help, "Brother Xiaowu, can you help me think of one?"
Chen An had already made a plan. He pretended to think for a moment and said, "It's a little female cat. Since you adopted it, your pen name is Barley Tea..."
"So it's called wheat tea?" asked Barley with a frown.
Chen An poked Da Mai's forehead and said jokingly, "What kind of wheat tea is this? It sounds much better to call it wheat ears or malt. What about wheat tea..."
"Wheat ears and malt, both sound good. Which one should I choose?"
Chen An looked at Da Mai's dilemma and had to help him make a decision. "Don't think about it. Isn't it simple? He is still young now, so just call him Maiya. When he grows up, you can just call him Wheat Ear."
"Brother Xiaowu, how can you have two names..."
"One nickname and one full name, isn't that normal?"
Barley held the kitten in his arms and asked, "Can I call you Malt?"
“Meow, meow…”
"Brother Xiaowu, it seems to have agreed. It's so smart." Da Mai looked at Chen An with surprise.
"This shows that my naming skills are pretty good." I couldn't help but think, how could I not be smart? I spent 800 yuan to carefully select it. It is definitely the smartest one in the litter. Of course, the most important one is the female cat. Don't ask me the reason. The answer is that opposite sexes repel each other.
Seeing Da Mai having fun like a kid who just got a toy, Chen An couldn't help but feel jealous. Where is Da Mai putting his little paws? Doesn't he know that it's his private territory? Forget it, out of sight, out of mind. Let's clean up the battlefield first to avoid any mistakes.
