The three cats that broke into my quiet life

Original link: https://hellodk.cn/post/1143

Recently, three cats broke into my ordinary life. The mother cat ran away after being discovered, leaving behind two kittens waiting to be fed. Although I have no experience in raising cats, let alone raising kittens, I finally I can’t bear to deal with them, so I have to raise them first.

21 first meeting

I moved to the house I live in now in 21 years. It is old and small. I live on the first floor and have a small yard. On the morning of September 20, 21 (I just checked the calendar, although this day is Monday, but because it is the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, there are three days off, 19, 20, and 21 are Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday respectively), in I saw this big cat in the yard. It seems to be a tortoiseshell cat. It is very cute. Who would have thought that in August 23, I found out that it gave birth to two kittens on my balcony. It’s really fate.

found smelly

Some time ago, my high-temperature vacation was split into two trips and a weekend that was completely used for rest. I rode the Wannan Sichuan-Tibet line and returned to Nanjing to rest for a day and a half. I just got home and found something smelly. I went to the balcony I found two small bricks and dozens of cat feces on the ground here. I felt sick for a while, so I quickly dealt with it. At this point I don’t know how the brick fell, it was used by the landlord to plug the hole in the condenser pipe of the air conditioner’s outdoor unit.

In the past two days, I occasionally heard cats meowing, thinking that there were kittens hidden under the sundries on the balcony, but after a few simple observations, I did not find any cats.

found three cats

Two days later, when I came back from work on a weekday night, I was determined to dig through the pile of debris. I didn’t expect to find three cats. The female cat was the cat who used to come to my yard often. It also gave birth to two kittens. Cat, oh my god… I was a little angry at the time, but when I saw the little milk cat, my heart melted and my heart softened. I felt that such a poor little cat was still very cute. The big cat ran out when I opened the yard door and curtain, so there are two kittens left…

Here is a photo of seeing the two little ones for the first time.jpg

I didn’t know what to do for a while, so I turned to my family, friends, colleagues, property groups…

My family asked me to raise it for a few days before talking about it.

That’s what my friend said too.

Colleagues even thought it was funny, saying that I was going to be lucky because of the “kitten from the sky”, a beckoning cat. I went to several supermarkets that night to look at cat food and goat milk powder. They were either unavailable, or they were human-drinked goat milk powder, or they were super-large cans. I thought it would be uneconomical to buy them…

Thanks to a little sister A who has two big cats in the opposite building, she gave me two cans of goat milk powder and some cat food, and she insisted on not giving her money.

I found a box for the little milk cats to live in first, and brewed some goat milk, but feeding them is a big problem, because there are no milk bottles for the time being ? , Later, because of my negligence, I didn’t pay attention to it and didn’t buy it… There was no very low container, so I added some water, hoping that the kitten would eat it when it was hungry.

Take care of Xiaohei and Xiaoju

  • I think the two little ones are very noisy, maybe they are hungry? Are they cold? still looking for mother
  • I went to the supermarket to buy things and asked my aunt to ask for a cardboard box with a larger area and deeper depth. I changed the temporary shelter for the kittens and found T-shirts and towels under them. I hope they can sleep soundly at night
  • The two of them are not noisy at night, but as long as there are lights or some big movements, they will call

The next night, I put the two of them in the yard, packed in a cardboard box, and put two bowls outside, containing cat food and goat milk. The mother cat did come several times at night, and the cat food was eaten up by it.

From the very beginning, I saw that Xiaoju was more lively and active than Xiaohei, and Xiaoju barked louder and more.

For the next 4 days, I took care of the two cubs.

But I still didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem—the two puppies didn’t eat much… I didn’t know how old they were, so I forced them to drink some goat milk and eat some soft cat food. Still, at times like this, eating shouldn’t be enough.

I haven’t bought a baby bottle yet, I wish I could buy one online sooner. A bottle would be better.

There is also the matter of stimulating and inducing urination and defecation.

Days, these are really a little strange to me. Although I have watched a few videos at station B, I am helpless in practice.

It’s Saturday, 37 degrees today, and the weather is hot. After I fed them, I saw that the two little ones were a bit dirty, so I went to the bathroom to scrub the kitten, and then dried it with a towel and a hair dryer. I didn’t completely dry it for fear of damaging the kitten.

In the evening, I made a video with my mother and brother. They suggested that I put the cats in the yard tonight, and I also hope that the cat mother will come to feed them and take care of them. I put the cardboard boxes in the yard, and it was actually quite hot outside at night, like 28 degrees.

In the evening, I took two little milk cats to meet Miss Sister A. Who knew that this was the first time she saw Xiao Hei, and it was also the last time…

Xiao Hei went to Meow Star

Sunday morning, day 6 of seeing the kittens. I went to the yard and saw Xiaoju crawling out of the box and walking around on the ground, screaming all the time, but Xiaohei was lying motionless in the cardboard box… I immediately took him back to the room, and after careful inspection, I found that Xiaohei was really dead up.

Once again at a loss, I communicated with my family and said how to deal with it…

They said let me bury it. I am going to bury it under the vegetables in the yard. When I picked up the little black cat, I couldn’t hold back the tears. I dug a hole, wrapped the little black cat in a paper towel, and buried it.

Then I came back and searched some videos on Station B. It turned out that you must never bathe a kitten. I blame myself so much, I feel so guilty, I feel that my inattention, inattention, and carelessness killed the little black cat. The little black cat may have died of starvation or freezing to death. But in the past few days, I have realized that its vitality is relatively weak, but I have not taken many effective measures, because I am really helpless. Put it in the yard and expect the mother cat to take care of it, and it is nothing but a bamboo basket to fetch water for feeding.

Please Miss Sister A to help me raise Xiaoju for a few days. Seeing Xiaoju drink milk and defecate with her, I feel relieved, but Xiaohei became a cat star in my hands. Something major.

I’m not a cat person. The elder brother next to me has long said that there are many stray cats around here, and they live everywhere. People passing by feed them, but no one raises them. He suggested that I get something to eat and put the kittens on the grass. But they are still too young, and I am afraid that they will not survive if they are thrown away at this time. The leaders in the community also replied, let’s throw it away after raising it for a full moon.

I don’t have any experience in raising small animals. Although I like cats and dogs very much, I am a little discouraged from raising them myself, maybe because I am afraid of trouble. Raising dogs and cats on the Internet is actually quite good. I should bear a lot of responsibility for Xiao Hei’s death. In the past few days, whenever I think of Xiao Hei buried in the vegetable field, I still can’t help but cry. Watching some xxx produced by the up master on station B went to meow star The sad BGM made me cry even more.

Xiao Hei, I’m sorry, I couldn’t raise you up, I think you will be a healthy kitten.

Good night, baby.

Goodbye, cute kitty.

Friends will take good care of Xiaotang

My friend has adopted Xiaoju, she will take care of Xiaoju.


After thinking about it, there is nothing to commemorate Xiao Hei, so just write this article, I will always keep you in my heart, I hope you can be happy and healthy in Meow Star.
