Chapter 651: Life Recovery

"Wake up, wake up, my hamster is awake!" cried Celery excitedly.

"Me too!"

"This one moved too!"

Not only her, but several other hamsters also woke up one after another, squirming in the palms of the children, opening their confused eyes, and seeing this familiar and strange world again.

Zhang Zi'an had already poured out the urine sand in the utensils, replaced it with pure wood chips, dug out a small pit, and asked everyone to put the awakened hamsters in it and cover them with wood chips.

Everyone felt very sorry for these hamsters who escaped from the ghost gate and wanted to hold them for a while, but Zhang Zi reminded: "If you have sweat in your palms, it's best not to hold them for too long, otherwise the sweat will get on the hamsters' bodies, which will cause their body temperature to lose faster." ”

The children were sweating in their palms to varying degrees due to nervousness, and they quickly put them back on the sawdust. The hamsters instinctively dig and curl up in the sawdust.

Their confidence was greatly increased, and they continued to do the same, rescuing the hamsters one by one, and even secretly fighting to see who could save more hamsters. Watching the little lives come back to life, they have gained a huge sense of happiness and pride in their hearts, not to mention how excited!

However, there is only one hamster that has not woken up for a long time, and that is the third-line hamster that lives in the bird cage. Everyone took turns rubbing their hands, then holding it in the palm of their hands, and desperately exhaling at it, but it remained motionless, as if it was really dead.

"It's stupid! look at me!" Wang Yaning pushed the others aside and held it up confidently.

She had rescued the most hamsters before, and even had the illusion that her body temperature was higher than that of others.

However, she held it in various positions for a long time, and the hamster still did not move......

"How...... What's going on? This hamster can't really die, does it?" she said skeptically.

"Brother store manager, why hasn't this hamster woken up yet!" Little Celery was so anxious that his face was flushed, and the others were also looking at him.

"Because this hamster is the most frozen. Zhang Zi'an pointed to the birdcage that was ventilated on all sides and said.

Hamsters have a poor ability to regulate their body temperature, and their habitat should be warm in winter and cool in summer, ventilated in summer and avoid direct sunlight, while in winter they should shelter from wind and avoid excessive temperature difference between day and night. On the other hand, this birdcage is completely sheltered from the wind, and it is a good place to live in summer.

"So what should we do?" Celery tugged at her pigtails, "We don't have anything else, and the teacher doesn't encourage us to spend money on everything......"

"Your teacher is right, but it doesn't cost money, and the solution is simple. Zhang Zi'an took an empty cardboard box from the corner and buckled it upside down on the birdcage, "Isn't this enough? Just dig a few small holes in the top of the cardboard box for ventilation, fasten it at night, and take it off during the day to avoid the wind and keep warm - in fact, it is better to raise it directly in a cardboard box." ”

"Now we have to be dead horses. Are there towels? He asked.

The children donated their towels.

Zhang Zi'an found a cup and filled it with hot water, then put several layers of towels on the lid of the cup, and then put the hamster that had not woken up for a long time into the towel and wrapped it tightly.

Hamsters have a higher normal body temperature than humans, and if human body temperature cannot revive them from false hibernation, they will have to resort to hot water. In practice, they must be carefully operated, if the temperature is not well controlled, or if they are not insulated with a towel, it is easy to burn them. But as he said, now he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

While waiting for the results, Zhang Zi'an was not idle, beckoning the two little boys to carry the shelf together, lifting the shelf from under the north window to the south window with better lighting conditions.

The school's breeding room is not small, but there is only one air conditioning cabinet, the heating effect of the whole room is limited, the most important thing is that he heard from the children that in response to the school's call to save electricity, this air conditioner is to be turned off at night, no wonder the hamsters all entered a state of false hibernation last night or this morning.

Zhang Zi'an can't help this, he must ask the children to apply to the school, and the air conditioner cannot be turned off at night, otherwise none of these hamsters will survive. Energy saving and emission reduction is a good thing, but it also scores a situation.

Wang Yaning recorded this matter in a small book seriously, compared to other children, it is most suitable for her to be responsible for negotiating with the school.

"It's moving!"

"Come and see! it's awake!"

Little Celery and the other girl screamed almost at the same time, clapping their hands happily.

The towel covered hamster opened its eyes, its little head looking around, and sniffed around, as if wondering why it was wrapped like a sandwich. It wriggled its body and tried to get out of the towel, but was held down by little celery in time, and if its delicate paws were allowed to touch the metal lid directly, it would probably burn.

"Great! Finally woke up!"

The two little boys were equally excited, and all four little heads were crowded together to watch the three-line hamster that had escaped death. Although Wang Yaning also wanted to take a look, he was worried about the identity and personality of the cadres in his class, so he couldn't bear to go over.

"It's good to wake up, and you have to be careful about keeping them warm in the future. Zhang Zi'an was also relieved, if the hamster died because of the children's negligence, they would probably feel guilty for a long time.

"Come over here and look at this. He beckoned them together and drew their attention to the wood chips and urine sand that had just been replaced.

"Do you know what this is?" he said, pointing to a few brown, soft clumps of stuff.

Little Celery raised her hand, "I know! It's hamster poop!"

"That's right. Zhang Zi'an glanced at her encouragingly, "But have you noticed the little celery? What color is the hamster Xiaoling in my store, what color is its poop, and what is it?"

"This ......," Celery thought hard, but she wasn't that observant.

However, Wang Yaning frowned and said, "It seems to be black, right? ”

The last time she came to Zhang Zi'an's pet store with Xiao Celery, she didn't expect her memory to be good, and she was really a potential scholar.

Zhang Zi'an nodded, "The normal feces of hamsters are like that, black particles, and this ......" he pointed to the brown soft stool mixed in the urine sand, "This kind of soft stool needs to be vigilant, if you don't get it right, it will develop into fatal enteritis." ”

The children looked at each other.

"So what to do?"

"Do you want an injection?"

"Is it okay to take medicine?"

They asked in a rambling manner, not wanting the hamster they had just rescued to be in danger again. When it comes to injections and medicines, their faces are not very good-looking, and it is estimated that they usually suffer from a lot of injections and medicines......

"No injections or medicines, it's winter, we have apples at home, right? Zhang Zi'an added, "Although it is more convenient to buy finished dried apples from the Internet, don't your teachers advocate doing it yourself? ”

He showed them how to make dried apples, and told them to come home today and make their own dried apples, and tomorrow to see who brought the best dried apples.

The production method of dried apples is very simple, peel and core the apples, cut them into thin slices, put them in a pot or electric kettle and cook them with water, take them out and spread them on a plate, put them in the microwave oven and heat them at high power for two or three minutes, then take them out and turn them over and heat them for two or three minutes, and then you can take them to the balcony to dry, if you have an air dryer at home, it is more convenient.

Immediately afterwards, he advised: "Although dried apples are good, you can't eat too much, too much, and the hamster will be constipated if you eat too much." ”

Fortunately, he deliberately followed the little celery over to take a look, otherwise these hamsters would have died of diarrhea and dehydration caused by enteritis, even if they did not die from false hibernation.

The others listened carefully and asked questions when they didn't understand, while Wang Yaning worked hard to write, she felt that she had learned a lot today, all of which could be written into the feeding report. Before, she was worried because there was nothing to write about, and even if she did, it would be empty and boring, but today she realized that there were many details and wisdom involved in the seemingly ordinary feeding process, which was worth chewing on carefully when she returned home.

The children were very frightened and felt that raising hamsters was not as easy as they imagined, in other words, life is very fragile and needs to be carefully cared for and cherished. Saving lives is joyful, watching lives pass away is painful, and they already understand the preciousness of life better than most children their age.

Zhang Zi'an looked at them with satisfaction, he always thought that children who like to have pets would not have violent tendencies, and this has been proven to be true.
