The days of being a cat in Japan

The raccoon cat with messy fur slowly crawled out of the cat's nest, while rubbing his old waist, he gritted his teeth in his heart and raised his middle finger.

Meow, that fellow Mo, what’s wrong these days, it’s like how long he’s been hungry, he doesn’t treat cats like cats.

Although the cihuamao voluntarily rubbed against the kitten in order to prevent the big black cat from focusing too much on the kitten, but that guy Mo was too much.

Alas, the cat's waist, the cat's legs, the cat's ass... Cough cough, cough cough...

Being able to make a civet cat with a particularly flexible body full of complaints shows that the big black cat has really worked hard recently.

After shaking its fur, licking its paws, washing its face, and grooming itself, the cihuamao ran to the drinking fountain to lick a few sips of water, and then went out in good spirits.

Because of his own kitten, Lihuamao is now very interested in the pair of kittens from Tianyuan's family that have already come out of the nest.

Now it basically goes to the villa of the cat gang every day to listen to the gossip of the cats, and by the way, to inquire about some news about the two kittens after they came out of the nest.

Just as Xu Jie had expected before, the life of Da Mao and Xiao Mao who had just emerged from the nest was not so smooth.

For cats that have been out of the litter, especially male cats, any territorial cat will not be too polite to them.

Recently, no matter where the big and little furs are looking for food, the owner of the territory will immediately appear and warn them to leave quickly with loud roars.

But this is considered polite. If you really encounter someone with a bad temper and a hot personality, it is very common for the two sides to fight directly.

Fortunately, Big Mao and Little Mao are two brothers. Even if they are chased and bitten by other big cats, they can cover each other or help each other.

In addition, the big cats in the cat gang know them well, and they are quite measured when they strike. This makes the two brothers able to retreat every time, and they have not suffered much injury until now.

But even so, the two brothers, Big Mao and Little Mao, lost a lot of weight due to the lack of food supply.

In the end, the little black cat took the two of them around the county town several times, and finally chose a place suitable for the two brothers to be a territory near the original central site of the wild dog gang.

Due to some historical issues, although the area in the west of the city is also the sphere of influence of the big black cats, few big cats from the cat gang are willing to go there to divide the territory.

So now most of the people looking for food here are wild dogs who still choose to stay and live in the cat's territory after the disbandment of the wild dog gang.

The existence of these guys was allowed by Mo, but the big black cat didn't allow them to get close to the shop of the Fujimoto family, the school where the cat's nest was located, and the apartment of the Fujimoto family.

Because that is the place where the cihuamao usually moves most frequently, so Mo will never tolerate any animal that may cause him any harm to appear there.

And because of the big black cat's high-handed attitude, even if Xu Jie has never fought with other animals, that place is now considered the civet cat's territory by default, and no animals will go there to look for food.

Does it sound weird? Why are there other cats within Mo's sphere of influence who dare to divide their territories?

In fact, this is not surprising at all, because the way that fellow Mo manages the territory is the same as that of the kings in the Middle Ages.

After a kingdom is established, the kings will grant titles to the knights who followed them in battle according to their merits and divide the territory.

The same is true for Mo. As the king of the cat world in this county, he allows his knights to divide his kingdom into territories of different sizes and positions according to their abilities.

It is because of the habit of the big black cat that the cihuamao thinks that perhaps his kitten can also stay.

I didn't see the two little tomcats of Tian Yuan's family. When the territory was demarcated in the west of the city, Mo Bu agreed.

When the cihuamao strolled to the Maobang villa that day, it saw Sanhua who hadn't shown up for a while.

Compared with when he went to rescue the scumbag a month ago, Sanhua now looks much rounder than before.

Because it is in estrus, Tianyuan has been very strict with Sanhua recently. Not only is she not allowed to leave the site casually, but even the cat's nest is not willing to let her step out.

But Tianyuan can't control Sanhua, because it can't beat his wife.

Although everyone in the cat gang knew that it was Tian Yuan who let her go, it was a pity that whether it was letting her or something else, Tian Yuan didn't dare to lay her claws on Sanhua.

Fortunately, Sanhua also understands Tianyuan, so she doesn't go out much during this special period, but she doesn't know why she came to the cat gang this time.

I don't know why, but the Wildcat Gang has always had more males and fewer females. In order not to cause disputes, Sanhua seldom appears in places where the Cat Gang gathers during this period.

So since she's here, there must be something going on.

Sure enough, the cihuamao leaned over and asked, only to realize that Sanhua came out this time for her and the kittens from the previous litter in Tianyuan.

Among the three little female cats in the previous litter of Sanhua, except for the youngest one who followed humans to live in other cities, the other two chose to stay in the cat gang. Locations have established their own territory.

Now, these two cats are almost one year old. For cats, they are already adults at this age, and their parents should not care about anything after they come out of the nest.

The same is true for Sanhua and Tianyuan. Although they live in the same city, and the distance between the two territories is not far apart, they have never asked about their daughters.

Until a few days ago, Sanhua heard from other places that her eldest daughter, Nelly, was mixed with the black and white tomcat in the cat gang. After all, it was the mother. She couldn't help but want to come out to see for fear of her daughter's disadvantage.

Sanhua had also seen that black-and-white, cow-colored tomcat before. She was about the same age as her daughter, and she joined the cat gang last winter.

Because the other party has not obtained the qualification to enter the cat gang villa casually, Sanhua has no impression of it.

On the contrary, Cihuamao still has some memories of that kitten because it once organized everyone to get injections and deworming together.

So in the face of Sanhua's inquiry, Cihuamao thought for a while and said: "The black and white kitten you mentioned, the cat has never played with it, so I don't know very well. But I heard from Xiao Shitou when he came back, that guy The character is very lively, the brain is also very flexible, and can always make the cat laugh, and Nelly must have taken a fancy to its humor."

Sanhua sighed and said: "What's the use of being humorous for a male cat? Can he be able to eat when he's hungry? Originally, it is very hard for a female cat to raise kittens. Find a critical moment that can be useful."

As a civet cat who often "stealth" at critical moments and has never played a big role, Xu Jie feels that he has no say in this position.

But the kittens are willing to do things like feelings, and they don't care about them at all.

Sanhua obviously knew this too, but the mother still wanted to ask her kitten to ask.

The two elders who were also very worried about their kittens came to the withered grass in front of the villa where kittens like to gather.

Looking at the eldest daughter who was playing happily with Black and White, Sanhua quietly called her to her side.

Then Xu Jie saw the two female cats meeting each other, and Sanhua asked her eldest daughter, "Nai Li, what do you like about that little black and white tomcat? Among the kittens of the first generation, they are not the chief hunters, they are not qualified to fight, and they are even gentle and gentle. How can such a cat take care of you in the future? In case something happens between you and the kittens, it will not be sure. If I can beat you, what's the use of coming?"

The little Sanhua cat, who has grown up and is very similar to Sanhua in terms of body shape and personality, curled her lips and said, "Mom, have you been spoiled too much by Dad? According to the rules of our cats, the cub We have always been raised by us, so what’s the matter with those male cats? Not all male cats will help you take care of us and your younger brother like Dad. I don’t know each other, and even fight. Therefore, once I have kittens in the future, I will never let male cats approach them, even the father of the children. So whether the black and white guy can hunt or not, fights are not good It doesn't matter if it's fierce, cats don't point at it to live, I can hunt by myself, if I fight hard, I'll have everything."

Sanhua felt speechless when she heard the words, because what Neri said was right, but her thinking was wrong.

Seeing her mother's speechless look, Nai Li thought that her words were too serious, and quickly corrected: "Mom, don't worry about me, my sister and I have a good time here. As for why you chose that guy in black and white?" , it’s simple enough to amuse the cat, and that’s enough.”

Sanhua was very emotional when she heard the words, she felt that she underestimated the child a little.

Looking at what Nelly just said and her current attitude towards the world, she has thought more clearly than herself as a mother.

Lihuamao also felt this kind of sigh, and compared to Sanhua, Xu Jie felt that his feelings were deeper.

Just now, when Sanhua was asking about her kitten, Lihuamao happily ran over to look for her black ball.

When it didn't have any scheming to tell it its idea of ​​letting the kitten carve out a small piece of territory in Mo's territory, the kitten took a deep look at its father Lihua, and then said clearly Refused.

Seeing this, Cihuamao was completely confused, it didn't understand why it didn't accept such a good idea.

Looking at the silly father, the little black cat sighed and said: "Dad, it is impossible for you to want me to establish a direct territory in the father's territory. Big Mao can do this, and Xiao Mao can do it." , even the two sisters Nellie and Jasmine can do it, but I can't do it."

"Why?" asked the dazed Linghua foolishly.

Hearing this, the little black cat stood up, raised its head with its chest up and replied loudly to its father: "Because they can all be knights, but I must be a king."

The little black cat with its head held high turned to its father, and for the first time said what was in its heart: "Meow, Dad, the cat knows that you hate the cat, but do you remember the name you gave the cat? The cat is rock, rock The rock is born indestructible, destined to stand upright, let the cat live in one place under the protection of the father and you, which is impossible for the cat. The cat must have a territory that belongs only to itself, and the cat must say what it wants to do. Only in this way will the cat's future partner live as freely as the father, and the cat's future kittens will grow up as carefree as the cat. My father and I have the same expectations, which determines that we only need to be together It is impossible to get along with each other forever. There can’t be two lords on the same territory. Either the new king crowns the old king and abdicates, or the old king keeps the throne, and the challenger leaves sadly. There will be no third situation. You and your father Cats are the most respected existence of cats. Cats will never compete with you for territory, so no matter how reluctant you are, cats will leave one day to find the territory, life and partner that belong to cats. The one you want I am afraid that you will not be able to enjoy the life of family reunion with your children and grandchildren until you are very old."

Lihuamao never thought that his half-year-old kitten would say these words to him one day.

But after hearing it, it felt that the kitten's words were very reasonable, and it seemed that its own thoughts were the ones making trouble out of no reason.

The cihuamao, who was shocked in his heart, was now in the state of a driver in his brain. Facing the extremely serious kitten, it couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
