The days of being a cat in Japan

In the next few days, Xu Jie would still lie on Mo's back and let him take him to the pet hospital.

It’s just because it has to think about problems, so when it’s not eating or exercising, it usually lies on the cat’s litter or mat in meditation.

Now Xu Jie's walnut was thinking about all the issues, should he tell the little fat man and the doctor, should he tell them?

Xu Jie, who rarely came down from upstairs this day, lay on the marble table of the beauty salon on the first floor as a guest receptionist.

It's just that in terms of service attitude, it is far worse than the real receptionist.

The raccoon cat, with its eyes closed and curled up on the marble to enjoy the shade, only meowed a few times when it heard a guest coming in, as if it was greeting a guest.

However, its attitude did not offend the guests again. On the contrary, the old customers who hadn't seen it for some days were still very happy with Xu Jie's appearance.

Today is Friday, and as usual, the morning of this day is usually a time when there are relatively few customers.

This time was no exception. After 10:30, after the first two groups of customers in the store left with their pets, the store began to become quieter.

Beauty assistants who have nothing to do can rest and chat together, and take a look at the latest popular pet shapes to recharge themselves.

After tidying up the workbench, Mrs. Fujimoto took off her overalls and sat in the rest area to rest.

After drinking two cups of coffee and eating a stack of senbei, Mrs. Fujimoto, who was feeling a little bored, looked up and saw the raccoon cat lying on the marble countertop, having just had a meal and enjoying a big black cat massage .

Looking at the slippery fur on the two cats, Mrs. Fujimoto felt her hands itchy.

So she got up and walked to the side of the cats, and asked Xu Jie who was lying on his side enjoying the massage: "Great Sage, I haven't styled you for a while, it just so happens that both of us are free today, do you want to take advantage of it?" This is an opportunity to try a new look?"

Hearing this, Xu Jie opened his squinted almond eyes, and meowed a few times towards Mrs. Lihui to express his refusal.

Meow, the cat doesn't want to be a star anymore, let's forget about changing the look.

Hearing the refusal in the cat's voice, Mrs. Rie didn't force it, but continued to ask in another way: "Since you don't want to change into a new look, how about I brush your hair?"

Hearing this, Xu Jie swung his tail from side to side and swept the marble table a few times, recalling that the last time he was groomed in a serious manner seemed to be in spring.

At that time, it was just in time for it to change its fur. Mrs. Rie saw that it had messed up the cat's hair everywhere, so she brushed it for a while.

Now that I think about it, it has been almost three months. If there is not a big black cat who often combs himself, with the cat's skill and laziness, it is estimated that even a short-haired raccoon cat's hair can be tyed into wool. group.

Thinking of this, Xu Jie felt a little itchy all over his body, so he readily agreed to Mrs. Lihui's request.

Seeing that the cat agreed, Mrs. Li Hui stepped forward and touched the fur on Xu Jie's back with her hand.

Feeling the smoothness and softness of Fat Tanuki's fur under her fingers, Mrs. Lihui couldn't help but said in admiration: "My lord, your fur is really good, it's soft and smooth, and there is no knot at all. It seems that Dahei treats you very well. She really cared and took care of her very carefully.”

Hearing this, Xu Jie purred a few times, which meant that the cat also took good care of Mo, and the cat licked its fur.

Of course Mrs. Rie couldn't understand cat language, but she could tell what the cat was muttering just by looking at Fat Tanuka's little expression.

Mrs. Lihui, who didn't want to be shown affection by the two cats, chuckled, found Xu Jie's favorite handle comb from the nursing box, and said to it: "Since this is the case, I will save trouble. You only need to use the handle for such smooth fur. Comb to remove the floating hair, and then pass it through.”

As she said that, Mrs. Lihui began to comb Xu Jie's hair little by little with the handle comb.

Anyone who has had a cat owner knows that if the technology is easy to use and the things are suitable, they will be very comfortable when grooming the cat.

Mrs. Fujimoto, who has been grooming and caring for pets for more than ten years, doesn't talk about her skills, so Xu Jie, who is combed very comfortably, not only stays still while grooming, but also moves one step ahead when it's time to turn over. flipped.

After combing Xu Jie's back hair, Mrs. Rie stopped to clean the comb, but found that a large piece of cat hair was combed from Xu Jie's body.

Mrs. Fujimoto was taken aback by the amount of cat hair on the comb, and thought it was because she hadn't cleaned the comb.

After picking up the cat fur on the comb and taking a closer look, she was sure that it was really the fur that fell from their great sage.

So while cleaning Mrs. Rie, he said: "My lord, why did your cat shed so much fur? I remember you started moulting at the end of May? It should be over by now. Even if the weather is hot You need to be cooler, but that's an exaggeration."

Xu Jie snorted a few times when he heard the words, indicating that the cat has been frightened recently, and its endocrine is getting out of balance again.

The civet cat, who was hiding something in his heart, turned over and changed his posture, signaling Mrs. Rie to continue grooming. It wanted to divert the topic.

Mrs. Fujimoto cleaned up the comb and continued to comb Xu Jie's hair. At this time, Dr. Fujimoto, who had finished his morning consultation, came downstairs for a walk.

Seeing Fat Tanuka obediently lying on the front desk waiting to be groomed, Dr. Fujimoto smiled and said to his wife, "Nurse the Great Sage again? It's rare that you have such a free time."

Hearing her husband's words, Mrs. Li Hui continued to move her hands while saying: "Guangyang, come and take a look too. Look at the cat hairs that have been cleaned up on the table. They are all from the Great Sage. I even Half of the body has not been combed by it, isn't this amount too much?"

Dr. Fujimoto walked towards this side quickly after hearing the words, and saw a small group of four-color cat fur placed on the marble countertop.

Taking a look at the cat hair ball in his hand, Dr. Fujimoto said: "Well, if it's only half of the body, the amount of hair is indeed a bit too much. Rie, have you noticed any other abnormalities with the Great Sage in the past few days? place?"

Mrs. Lihui stopped her movements when she heard the words, thought for a while and said: "The spirit of the great sage these days seems to be okay, but I don't know why he suddenly became quieter. The appetite is indeed a little less than last week. , but it must still have a lot of food in the past. Poop, it hasn’t been at home recently, so I can’t see it, but it sleeps more than before.”

After saying this, Mrs. Li Hui touched Xu Jie's head with her hand, then touched its chin and continued: "I feel the most that our big sage has lost weight in the past few days, and I still feel it when I touched his chin last week. Anyone who is fleshy can beat hands, but now the extra layer of double chin is almost gone. But compared to the thinness on his body, the piece of flesh on the lower abdomen of the Great Sage looks bigger, Guang Yang, are you really sure this is normal?"

Hearing his wife's question, Dr. Fujimoto squatted down holding his glasses and scanned Xu Jie back and forth several times with his eyes.

Then he said: "Well, the Great Sage doesn't seem to be very energetic, so how about it, I'll carry it up and have a check first."

Seeing Dr. Fujimoto carrying his little raccoon up to the second floor, Mo, who had been squatting obediently at the front desk, jumped off the platform and followed with his tail upright.

Because he was most worried about the weight of the raccoon cat, after taking Xu Jie up to the second floor, Mr. Fujimoto's first check for him was to measure his weight.

Putting Xu Jie on the scale that had been reset to zero, Mr. Fujimoto began to wait for the number on it.

Within a few seconds, the ever-changing numbers on the equipment were fixed. The doctor looked at the numbers above, then at Xu Jie, and frowned.

According to the results on the weighing scale, there is not much difference between the weight of the cihuamao now and the last time it was weighed.

But the Great Sage has indeed lost weight. The fat on his chin, limbs and upper abdomen has been reduced, but his weight has not decreased.

There is only one answer to such a result, that is, there are other parts of the Great Sage's body that are growing.

The doctor scanned Xu Jie's body back and forth with his eyes, and finally fixed his eyes on its swollen abdomen.

Being stared at, Xu Jie stepped back a few small steps on the weighing scale. With his hind legs hanging in the air and it was impossible to retreat, he got down on his body and lay himself down into a ball.

When it made these movements, the doctor had already put on the mask, and took out the disposable gloves in the drawer to put on himself.

Then the doctor said to Xu Jie very seriously: "Great Sage, what Li Hui said just now makes sense. Your body fat is decreasing, but your weight is not losing weight, and your abdomen is still more distended. Let me do an abdominal palpation for you first." , I will give you an ultrasound in a while to see if there is any problem."

Xu Jie turned over and jumped off the weighing scale, avoiding the doctor to prevent him from touching him.

Mo, who followed after seeing this, rushed directly between the doctor and Xu Jie, grinning and showing his canine teeth to the doctor.

Seeing the reactions of the two cats, the doctor was a little dazed. After all, both Xu Jie and Mo left people with the impression of being clever and human.

This was the first time that my son's raccoon cat showed resistance to his approaching, and the big black cat even threatened himself not to approach them with sharp teeth.

The doctor had no doubt that if he dared to continue approaching despite the warning, the big black cat with extraordinary strength would definitely choose to attack without hesitation.

But even so, the doctor still did not give up.

He said to Xu Jie and Mo: "Dahei, there is something wrong with Dasheng's body data. I just want to do a basic check on it to make sure it is not sick. I have no other intentions. It will never hurt it."

I thought that the big black cat with human nature would get out of the way after I explained it, because it did this most of the time.

But this time, to the doctor's expectation, the big black cat not only didn't move away after hearing the words, but quickly moved its limbs together, arched its body, and stared at the doctor without blinking its amber cat eyes.

Doctors who are familiar with feline body language know that this is the movement of the cat before attacking. The tense limbs and muscles of the back and abdomen can make the cat bounce away or rush up quickly.

Doctor Fujimoto, who didn't want to annoy the big black cat, took a few steps back quickly. While keeping a safe distance, he also showed the attitude of the cat that he had no intention of doing anything.

Xu Jie, who was standing on the examination table, felt bad when he saw Mo's movements. After realizing that it really had the intention of attacking, Fat Lihua got up and jumped.

The frightened big black cat caught it with its back, frowned and caught it with its back.

An Wenluo's cihuamao patted Mo with its paw and said, "Come on, let's go back to the nest first."

Hearing this, the big black cat turned around and ran out of the pet hospital with its little raccoon.
