Chapter 1378 - The Cat Catch Butterflies

Chapter 1378: The Cat Catch Butterflies
Perhaps because it is the Golden Week holidays, the customer in the pet clinic… to call them customers is a bit strange, perhaps the patient? In fact, that is a bit strange as well… Anyway, just people. There are so many people, and they have to wait in line to get a number.
Zhang Zian held the cardboard box and sat in the waiting area. Everyone else has at least a cat bag or a pet box. It is unique to have someone like him holding a cardboard box.
The kitten has finished eating the first can of food and is eating the second one.

No. 34?

The nurse was busy collecting payment, and a female veterinarian wearing a white coat shouted from the treatment room.
The person sitting next to Zhang Zian replied and took his cat bag over.



Let me tell you quietly, this veterinarian and nurse, I also feel that they are very familiar.
Zhang Zian lowered his voice and squinted his eyes on the kitten.

Meow?

It seems to be questioning: she wears a mask, and you can’t even see her face. How do you know that they are familiar? Disguised porcelain masks?

Oh, although the face of the real person is covered by a mask, isn’t there still photos?
He pointed to the wall at the entrance, where a veterinary license and a business license with a photo of the vet were attached.

No. 35? No. 35? Nobody? No. 36?


Here.

Zhang Zian stood up with his cardboard box and followed the female veterinarian into the treatment room.
Unsurprisingly, she treated him in a professional manner. It was not like she had seen him before or know him prior. For him, he was already used to this.
When she saw the kitten’s silver-gray eyes, the female vet’s eyebrows were raised in surprise because she had never seen a cat with such eyes. She was about to take it out of the cardboard box for further inspection when the kitten that had been very obedient until now suddenly jumped out of the cardboard box and ran out of the clinic.

Wait! Don’t run!



Zhang Zian was caught off guard and had to apologetically make a sorry gesture to the female veterinarian, indicating that he would chase the kitten himself.
The kitten ran back to the waiting area at the door, and someone coincidentally pushed open the door. It slipped through the gap of the door and went out.
When Zhang Zian reached the door, he found that it had disappeared.
He sighed, got into the van, and went home.
The third day of the Golden Week Holidays.
Morning.

Dad, Mom, let me help you walk the dog.

After breakfast, Zhang Zian took the initiative to find something to do. He was idle anyway.
Walking dogs require no technical expertise, and he will not get tired as well. It is nothing more than taking the puppies in the store to go for a walk outside. If they defecate while outdoors, that is even better.

Okay. Just a walk nearby will do. There is no need to go far.



The father found for him a special traction rope. It was a rope that was further separated into a number of strings from the middle section. They were all elastic. They were especially used for walking dogs. Of course, they were not suitable for large and medium-sized adult dogs. Otherwise, it will become a dog sled rope…
Zhang Zian put all the puppies in the store on the leash, held the end of the buckle firmly in his hand, and took them out of the pet shop.
Being able to go for a walk, the puppies are, of course, very happy, and they are jumping and screaming.
The preferred destination for walking dogs is, of course, the green space behind the pet shop. It does not disturb people, and the puppies’ excrement can be easily buried with a small shovel. Even if you don’t consider the issue of practicing socially acceptable behavior, you can at least avoid stepping on the excrement later by burying it.

What?

When he just arrived at the green space, he noticed a familiar figure.
A black and white bicolor kitten was running around in the green lawn and trees.

It turns out that you have come here.

Seeing that it was safe, he felt a lot more relaxed. After it ran away yesterday, he was quite worried, because once domestic cats get lost, they often die because they could not adapt to the external environment. It is not easy to be a stray cat.
The puppies also saw the kitten and barked at it.



Meow…

The black-and-white kitten sensed his appearance in the space, stops and stares at him. It tentatively approaches him but seems to be afraid of the puppies’ barking. It stops after taking a few steps.

Don’t be afraid. They won’t bite you.
Zhang Zian put the leash to the longest, and then tied it to a tree so that the puppies could only play around the tree.
As it had run away yesterday, he wondered if it would run again today. However, when he was fastening the rope, it simply sat there staring at him.
In autumn, the vegetation in the green is not as lush as in summer, and the number of mosquitoes is greatly reduced.

Do you have a name? What is your name? Who was your former owner?

He sat down on a stone bench and talked freely with it. Of course, he didn’t expect it to answer.

Meow…

Ok, maybe it answered, but he didn’t understand.
There is no pressure or to hold back anything when he talks to it. He can simply say whatever he wants to say.



You don’t like to be restrained? Like freedom?
he guessed.
So you don’t want to go back to the pet store with me? There are a lot of cats in the store, and you won’t feel lonely.


Also… you don’t want to be adopted? Because you have been abandoned, you don’t trust people?

Some abandoned pets are like this. After being abandoned for no reason, they lose trust in people. Even if they are adopted by others, they always keep a distance from the adopters, so that they can avoid being hurt for the second time.
Adopters are also very confused. Why are they not familiar with them even after raising them for so long?

Meow…

It tilted its head, and its line of sight seemed to move.
Zhang Zian also turned his head and looked.
Butterfly.
Behind him, a few butterflies danced around him.
He tried to take a few steps, and although the butterflies did not keep up, they seemed to be following him.

Oh, this is amazing.

He lifted his sleeves and smelled it, but there was no smell.
In his two meetings with Zhuang Xiaodie, she did not have physical contact with him, but he thought it might be that the smell on her body had passed to him, like… a certain pheromone.
A pheromone is a very broad concept. It refers to a compound that acts as a form of communication. It is generally expressed as an odor molecule that is diffused in the air.
Many animals can secrete and receive pheromones. For example, adolescent boys can smell body fragrance from their favorite girls, or girls can be enchanted by the sweaty smell of sporty teenagers. If the brain damage factor and shower gels are excluded from the equation, It may be that a certain pheromone is working.
Of course, humans and more intelligent mammals have many modes of communication, and the information transmission efficiency of pheromones is too low. It has never been the main means for humans to transmit information, and do not even count as secondary methods of communications.
However, for insects, pheromones are a very important means of communication.
Zhang Zian witnessed Zhuang Xiaodie’s attraction of large amounts of butterflies, so he guessed that some of the shower gels or perfumes she used contained pheromone ingredients that attracted butterflies. It was just like humans adding to their own charms and use perfumes to attract the opposite sex.
However, he hasn’t used a new shower gel recently, nor has he had physical contact with Zhuang Xiaodie. How come…
He was thinking about it, and he suddenly saw that the black and white kitten seemed to have found its prey. It lunged towards the butterflies.
