Chapter 1640: Start from zero

As an outstanding representative of the engraving phenomenon, if pet birds wanted to have relatives, they must be raised from a very young age, and they could not always be kept in cages. The master had to start from the nestling to feed them on behalf of their mother, and play with them in their hands. Through physical contact and language communication, the nestling’s impression of the master would be strengthened. Hand-raised birds in this way had more relatives than birds in cages, and they could even be raised indoors like cats and dogs.

It was not an easy task to raise a bird by hand. Any kind of baby bird had to eat less and eat more, which meant that the master had to feed the baby bird at least four or five times during the day. When it was too young, the master had to use a needle and a soft tube to inject it into the bird’s mouth. When it was not easy, it would take the initiative to drink the milk from the spoon. When it grew a little older and entered the period of milk aversion, it would not drink it properly again.

If you wanted to raise a kitten from a young age, especially a kitten that had not been weaned off milk for less than a month, it was more troublesome than raising a nestling. This was because birds at least rested at night, but kittens were more energetic at night, and sometimes they had to be fed twenty times a day.

The most important thing was that there was no clear evidence that cats had the engraving phenomenon, and there was no evidence that kittens raised from young were closer to their owners than kittens raised from three to four months old. In any case, they still had to dislike it …

When little Wang and Tian Qi heard this, they could not help but feel a little discouraged. This was completely different from what they had imagined. They had had high hopes, but reality had given them a slap in the face.

“How about … I keep a dog?” Little Wang suggested.

However, Tian Qi asked with a woman’s emotional mentality, Manager Zhang, you said that you don’t have any clear evidence. Are you saying that you’re not sure?”

It was a tricky angle, and Zhang Zian had to admit,””I’m not sure, because people don’t know what’s going on in a cat’s mind. Whether it’s raised from a young age or adopted halfway through, it’s normal for cats to dislike you. Even if they like you, they might not show it, so even scientists can’t do anything about it.”

“However, when the cat was young, it was indeed quite clingy. It may not be the same when it grows up.” He added.

“My lan lan has always liked me,” Zhao Qi interrupted.”I can feel it.”

Little Wang and Tian Qi discussed awkwardly for a while, but they had not reached a consensus yet.

At this time, Lu Yiyun came back with the warm goat’s milk. She was not sure if the little orange cat would take the initiative to drink it, so she brought a needle in addition to the bottle.

It was only then that little Wang and Tian Qi realized that the shoe box at the cash register had not been thrown there casually. There was actually a quiet kitten in it.

No matter how ugly they were when they grew up, most of the Cubs were very cute when they were young, and kittens and puppies were even cuter. It was no wonder that many people wanted to raise pets from a young age. In order to keep this childhood that would never return, even if they knew that raising pets from a young age would be very tiring, they would still flock to it like ducks.

Even Zhao Qi’s eyes lit up. It was her first time seeing such a small kitten, and it was so adorable, which aroused her maternal instinct and desire to protect it.

“Doesn’t it look like custard buns?”

Tian Qi’s words exposed her gluttonous nature, but she did look a little like her. The orange kitten’s color was very light, almost light yellow, and it was very quiet. It didn’t make a sound when everyone was talking, and it only meowed softly when it smelled the goat’s milk in the bottle.

“So cute!”

While feeding it, Zhao Qi reached out and touched it, and then asked curiously,””Eh? Why are there orange cats in your shop? Where’s its mother?”

“It was picked up from the shop entrance this morning. Someone left it there.” Zhang Zian gave a simple introduction.

“Uh … Then what do you plan to do with it?” Zhao Qi asked again,”is it troublesome to take care of such a small cat?”

“Yeah, I’ll just keep it for now. There’s no other way. It’ll only be troublesome before full term. After that, I’ll drink milk and eat on my own. I’ll give it to whoever wants it … If no one wants it, then we’ll see.” He answered honestly.

Zhao Qi seized the opportunity and urged little Wang and Tian Tian,””How is it? Why don’t you raise it? This kitten is so cute, maybe it’ll mature as time goes on. It’s just a little troublesome at the beginning … It’s okay, just take it as practice for taking care of the baby in the future. ”

The couple blushed again. Although they were living together, they didn’t think so far ahead. In addition, they were really tempted. They wanted to raise a kitten. The kittens in the Pet Shop were too big for them, and it was not easy to find a kitten that met their expectations. This orange kitten seemed quite suitable. Besides, it was cute and free. They felt that if they missed this opportunity, there would be no such shop again.

They looked at each other and exchanged glances. Finally, Tian Qi asked Zhang Zian,””Then … We want to keep this cat, can we?”

Zhang Zian had some concerns about the two of them, who were new to raising cats. People who had never raised a cat before would not be able to keep it alive if they started raising it from such a small age.

Zhao Qi guaranteed for them,””They are good at learning and responsible. I will try my best to teach them how to raise cats. You don’t have to worry about this and that.”

Tian Qi actively added,”I’m in charge of the logistics and warehouse. I’m usually quite free, so I have my own office. I can secretly bring it to work without anyone taking care of it. It won’t starve, and it doesn’t bark much, so it won’t disturb anyone.”

Zhang Zian could see that the couple was calm and not the kind of people who were particularly impetuous at first glance. From their clothes, they did not look like the moonlight clan like Zhao Qi, which showed that they had a certain ability to plan their lives and could restrain their desire to spend. Of course, he could not say this to Zhao Qi, or she would definitely be furious. She would say that he was making his own money and spending his own money. Who was in her way?

He pondered for a moment and nodded.”Alright then. But at least one of you has to stay here today. Learn how to take care of a kitten.”

“We’ll all stay. We don’t have anything to do today anyway. ” Tian Qi was overjoyed and agreed immediately.”Let’s call it custard bun!”

Little Wang wanted to say something but stopped. After all, a young man would prefer to stay at home and play games or watch football matches on the weekend. However, considering that he had just made his girlfriend angry, he held back his words. He didn’t want to get himself into trouble and have to coax his girlfriend again. If that happened, he might lose the rest time for the entire next week …

Zhang Zian pretended that he didn’t see his conflicted expression. Between being responsible for the kitten and being responsible for the two customers who didn’t spend in the store, he could only choose one.

He gave Lu Yiyun a look, signaling her to give them the milk bottle in her hand and teach them from scratch.

Normally, Zhao Qi didn’t need to stay at this time. After all, she wasn’t the one learning how to take care of the kittens. But she didn’t leave. She observed the kittens eating lunch, as if she had something to do.
