Strange Life of a Cat

Seeing that Zheng Tan got along "very well" with those kittens inside, the "Prince" who had been staying on the cat climbing frame couldn't sit still any longer, and after a couple of trials, he jumped inside.

However, after the five kittens found the "Prince", they were still the same as before, arching their backs and puffing up their hair to give a warning sound. The only difference is that now because of Zheng Tan's presence, the five kittens seemed to be more confident, and they all stood next to each other. Zheng Tan made it inconvenient for Zheng Tan to lift his feet.

"Prince" took two steps to that side, Xiaomaomen's back arched even harder, the warning sounds followed one after another, and at the same time, they got closer to Zheng Tan.

Zheng Tan is very annoying now, why are these five kittens with bigger farts so close to each other? I feel uncomfortable all over, but I am afraid that these cats will be kicked, pressed or bumped into by a large range of movements, so I am impatient and at the same time my whole body is a little stiff. And Zheng Tan's depressed mood reached its peak when the "Prince" approached.

Zheng Tan's ears perked up, and he looked at the American shorthair cat approaching with oppressive eyes: "If you don't get lost, I will beat you to death!"

Seeing this situation, Xiao Guo, who was staying outside the plastic board, also called his cat in a low voice. It seems that his cat has no chance to shoot this advertisement at all, and those kittens are completely disrespectful.

Under the pressure of many parties, the "Prince" slowly retreated, and then jumped out of the circle to find Xiao Guo for comfort.

Seeing that the "enemy" had left, the kittens' alarm was also lifted, and they continued to play around Zheng Tan. When Zheng Tan moved, they also followed him. When Zheng Tan stopped, they all rubbed against him, rolling around or playing with Zheng Tan. Sigh paw tail or something.

Compared to the happy mood of the kittens, Zheng Tan has always put on a bad face, and the cats don't have many expressions, but anyone who sees Zheng Tan now will come to the conclusion that "this cat is in a bad mood now".

Zheng Tan lowered his head and looked helplessly at the kitten who was lying on his back and rolling by his paws. The soles of the kitten's feet are very tender, reflecting a soft luster under the light, not as rough as the paws of the big cat. And Zheng Tan runs and climbs trees every day, which wears down the soles of his feet more than other cats.

Zheng Tan looked at waving his little feet in the air, raised one of his front paws, and compared it with that pink little palm in the air.

Tsk, it's so small, it's not as big as the meaty ball in the center of my palm. However, it's really soft.

Ka Ka Ka Ka!

The sound of the camera taking pictures sounded, and the flash flickered.

Zheng Tan turned his head to look over, Xiao Guo was holding the camera to take pictures with excitement, like a monkey constantly changing positions and angles, because there are many obstacles and obstructions here, so Xiao Guo's posture when taking pictures is very weird, Just like those wretched uncles when they shoot girls upskirts.

"Shop Manager, is that the one?" The employees were eager to try. This black cat should be the one to shoot an advertisement for cat food for kittens. Except for it, the few cats in the store are far behind.

"That's it! Prepare guys, start working!" Xiao Guo's eyes were full of excitement, "Our advertisement will definitely attract a lot of orders!"

The advertisement designed by Xiao Guo is very simple to say, and the general plot is: a litter of abandoned kittens is found by a big cat, and then the big cat brings them cat food. And there are two kinds of cat food here, one is kitten milk cake, and the other is canned kitten food, both are produced and sold by Xiao Guo and the others, and they have been inspected by a special quality inspection department The quality is guaranteed, which is one of the reasons why Papa Jiao agreed with Zheng Tan to pick up the job.

Xiao Guo was worried before this because he was afraid that the big cats would not get along well with the kittens, but now when he was shooting commercials, he realized that it is not good to be too clingy. Inside, whenever you see Zheng Tan appearing, you will run over there.

The good thing is that this kind of situation is easier than getting along with each other. The kittens really showed love for the two kinds of cat food, which made Xiao Guo more confident in his own products.

It took four hours to finish the filming, and the rest was post-production work. Zheng Tan couldn't take care of the rest, so he just wanted to leave as soon as possible, and didn't want to stay here as a baby daddy.

It's a pity that what makes Zheng Tan depressed is that the sky has turned cloudy and it's starting to rain, and the weather forecast says there won't be any rain!

Xiao Guo called Dad Jiao and said that he would send the cat back when the rain stopped. The rain should not last too long. Anyway, he would definitely send the cat back before dark.

Therefore, Zheng Tan was forced to continue to stay in this studio. The good thing is that the five kittens were probably exhausted from filming commercials. After eating cat food, they slept together in a nest. There was a heat-generating pad under the kittens’ litter. The temperature has been a little low recently, and the big cats are not around, so the kittens are prone to catch cold.

Originally, Xiao Guo planned to let Zheng Tan go to sleep with the kittens, which would be easier and more reassuring. The effect of the heat producing pad is definitely not as real as that of a real cat.

Zheng Tan closed his eyes and fell asleep, pretending he didn't hear Xiao Guo's words. Whoever wants to go will go, anyway, I won't go!

During the break, everyone who didn't have lunch ordered takeaway. Knowing that Zheng Tan doesn't eat cat food, Xiao Guo prepared chicken rice for Zheng Tan.

While everyone was eating, the door of the studio was slammed open.

"Guo Xiaoming! Help!"

It was a woman who came in, probably still very young, with her hair hanging loose under an umbrella, and Zheng Tan couldn't see her appearance clearly, mainly because of the cover of her hair and the influence of the pair of black-rimmed glasses.

The person who came in was holding a pet bag on his body, and he didn't let the bag get wet when he got wet.

Xiao Guo, who was eating a box lunch, almost choked when he saw the person coming, "I said Yanzi, my name is Guo Mingyi, not Guo Xiaoming, how many times have I said it and still can't change... What's wrong with you?"

"Help, my Li Yuanba is sick!" The person who came in casually put down his umbrella and ran over in a hurry.

Hearing the young woman say the name "Li Yuanba", Zheng Tan spit out the chicken nuggets from his mouth.

How mighty, majestic and domineering it must be to be called such a name!

So Zheng Tan was chewing the chicken rice in his mouth, and looked over to see what kind of appearance was inside the pet bag.

"What's wrong with your 'Li Yuanba'? I remember you said that this one of yours is very strong." After eating two mouthfuls of food, Xiao Guo walked to a place on the side of the room. It's inconvenient, after all, everyone here is eating now, and it's not good to see a doctor for cats.

"If you are sick, you have to send it to my brother, and I sell some pet supplies here." Xiao Guo said while unzipping the pet bag.

"Isn't this an old classmate? I feel more at ease going through the back door." Yanzi explained, with worry on his face.

As Xiao Guo opened the pet bag, Zheng Tan finally saw the true face of that "Li Yuanba".

Fuck! This fur color is like the scene of a fire, it is really special, and it feels very domineering!

The cat's fur is mainly black with some yellow and some white hairs mixed in with the black.

From the cat's point of view, Zheng Tan felt that the cat had a strong aura and was not a simple character, and it was probably very fierce in fights.

This is also the first time that Xiao Guo really saw "Li Yuanba", and he only saw photos on the Internet before. After Yanzi got in touch with Xiao Guo, the two chatted on the Internet. Yanzi was very happy when he knew that Xiao Guo opened a pet center. He showed Xiao Guo a photo of his "Li Yuanba" on the Internet, but the two did not chat. Too many, Yanzi came to the store to buy vaccines and canned cat food, but it was the first time the cat brought it.

"You cat... I feel very fierce." Xiao Guo said. He didn't touch it with his hands. He had seen it a lot, and he could see the emotion the cat was trying to express from a look in the cat's eyes. Xiao Guo felt that it was better for him not to touch the cat, otherwise he would have a few more bloodstains or teeth marks on his hands in the next moment.

The cat lay there calmly on its side, and there was nothing unusual about it except that its eyes changed when Xiao Guo approached.

Xiao Guo just took a brief look at the cat and asked, "How do you know it's sick?"

"Now it often lies in one place to sleep, and doesn't move much. It used to go out to play, and when it was at home, it didn't respond to teasing it. Although it didn't play much before, it always had some reactions, and now it is basically ignored. Those toys have been there for a while, and they are indifferent to many things, always staying there. My neighbor said that it must be sick...Guo Xiaoming, is it seriously ill?" Swallow asked worriedly.

Xiao Guo thought for a while, then asked again: "Has there been any change in food intake?"

"Yes, it's quite a lot to eat."

Xiao Guo nodded, and then said: "It's nothing, don't worry, your 'Li Yuanba' is just pregnant."

Zheng Tan: "..." Why does this sentence sound so scary?

After hearing this, Yanzi reacted even more strongly, as if seeing a divine beast: "Impossible, how could my 'Li Yuanba' be pregnant! It's a male cat!"

Xiao Guo gave her a blank look, and pointed to the cat lying on its side in the pet bag, "You don't need to look at other things, as long as you see this coat color, you will know that tortoiseshell cats are basically female cats. The reason for this coat color comes from X Random inactivation of chromosomes.

If the inactivation is an X chromosome containing a linked recessive gene, it will appear black, if the inactivation is an X chromosome containing a dominant gene, it will appear yellow, and the inactivation of the X chromosome in different parts of the cat's fur is random , so the color of the cat's fur will be mottled like this, that is, the yellow and black tortoiseshell color. "

After listening to Xiao Guo's explanation, Yanzi struggled for a while, "I'm studying computers, not chromosomes."

Yanzi and Xiao Guo are classmates in high school, and they study different majors in university.

"The people around you didn't tell you that you have a female cat?" Xiao Guo couldn't understand it. The place where Yanzi lives is considered an old residential area, and the neighbors should be familiar with each other, and they should know each other. There is communication. If one person doesn't recognize it, don't others too?

"I... I don't go out very much. Our neighbor said it was a male cat, so I named it 'Li Yuanba'." Yanzi was a little embarrassed.

Yanzi's real name is Li Yan, a very common name, and she is not good at dressing up. She has a low sense of presence among her classmates since she was a child. The cat I raised was actually a stray cat, and was later adopted by Yanzi and brought home.

"Your neighbor? That kid with the middle part who likes to wear shiny leather shoes?" Xiao Guo asked.

"Yes, that's him!" Yanzi nodded.

Xiao Guo snorted, "That guy brought his cat over last week to give the cat a little JJ. His house is a female cat, a little JJ with a little hair! That kid probably thinks that cats are like dogs. It's easy to tell males and females apart."

Knowing that her cat was pregnant, Yanzi asked a lot of things to pay attention to, and Xiao Guo also answered them one by one.

"During the pregnancy of the female cat, drugs and chemical substances should be avoided, especially steroids and greymycin for the treatment of mold, etc., and special attention should be paid to the quantity, quality and type of food fed..."

Yanzi brought a recording device to record all Xiao Guo's words.

"Okay, let's talk about this first. Then you will look up the information yourself. If you don't understand, you can ask me. You can leave a message online or email. I guess I've been busy recently. I'll find time to check the messages and emails after I'm busy."

"Okay, thank you! Hey, are those kittens?" Yanzi glanced at the hair ball in the corner over there.

"Well, a six-week-old kitten, just finished filming a commercial, and now she's tired and sleeping."

"Ad? An ad for kittens? Can I see it?"

Xiao Guo thought about it, did not refuse, and showed some unprocessed clips to Yanzi.

"It's so cute," Yanzi praised, then pointed to Zheng Tan who was resting on the tallest cat climbing frame after eating, and asked Xiao Guo: "Is that the black cat's cub?"

"No, the mother of these kittens is a short-haired domestic cat, and the father is a Siberian forest cat. This can be confirmed, just look at the fur of these kittens." Xiao Guo explained.

"Then why does it get along so well with kittens?"

"I guess it has a strong affinity for kittens." Xiao Guo didn't know much about this issue either.

"Then this black cat is really special. Hey, Guo Xiaoming, when my kitten is born, I will bring it over to shoot a few scenes. I may borrow this black cat then."

Xiao Guo didn't make a sound, but looked in Zheng Tan's direction.

Zheng Tan: "..." Paralyzed! I don't want to bring kittens!
