Chapter Seventy-Nine: Wesley Pet Center
The two most common ways to get a small pet in the UK are to adopt and buy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The former is the most common and popular way, and basically most people adopt their own small pets from pet adoptions.
It is difficult to see pet stores on the street, which is also because of the strict concept of animal protection and regulations in the UK, you can hit people on the streets of the UK, but you must not hit pets, such as dogs, cats, and even pigeons, squirrels, etc. If you hit someone, someone may come to persuade you, but if you hit a pet, people on the street will call the police directly.
A pet adoption center is an organization of volunteers who care for small animals, large and small, of all sizes. The income of a pet adoption center is basically donated by others or operated by pet medical care, so running a pet adoption home is not only energy-consuming, but may even cost a lot.
Mrs. Wesley is the biggest sponsor of the West Liverpool Pet Rescue Centre, but she is not usually here. She runs a small pet home in the suburbs not far from her home.
Originally, it was originally a kindergarten, but it closed down due to poor management, and was bought by Mrs. Wesley several times.
From the outside of the fence, a small courtyard surrounds a three-story building, it seems that there are still traces of the original kindergarten, the whole building is colorful, and there are some children's toys and equipment in the yard, but it seems that they are somewhat damaged.
When Ye Chen and the others came, they told Mrs. Wesley. The old man welcomed them here and was already waiting for them in the room at the door.
"Hello, kids." Mrs. Wesley, with a kind face, greeted them with a smile on her face, "And brought little Parker here." ”
Parker liked the old woman very much, and felt warm around her, tugging at the rope around her neck to move forward.
Seeing Parker's appearance, Yuanyuan also let go of the leash in her hand. Parker felt a lunge run in front of Mrs. Wesley,
"Wangwang." Like a schoolboy, Parker stopped at Mrs. Wesley, and stood upright underneath him on his short legs, looking up with his head up.
"Good boy." Mrs. Wesley bent down and touched Parker's little head, and immediately wagged its little tail with joy.
"Come on, Xiaochen." Mrs. Wesley led them into the pet home, "I'll show you around here, there are a lot of cute little things. ”
As soon as I entered the yard, I heard a constant stream of pet barks, especially the sound of puppies. It seems that he felt the atmosphere here, and Parker was a little uncontrollable, if it hadn't been for Yuanyuan picking it up when she came in, he wouldn't have known where to run.
"Don't make a fuss, Parker." Parker in Yuanyuan's arms twisted and twisted, wrinkling his little face very dissatisfied.
Mrs. Wesley was worried that Parker's first time in the house would make it difficult for him to get into trouble with other animals, and that there were many large animals in the foster house.
There were staff members in the yard who took some animals for a walk, and they were very afraid to see Ye Chen and these strangers, and they didn't dare to go this way, but they wanted to find Mrs. Wesley, and stopped beside them with an expression of wanting to leave but being reluctant.
"Anqi, these two are Ye Chen and Yuanyuan, and they saved those children last time." Mrs. Wesley introduced Ye Chen to this staff member named Angel.
"yes, thank you so much." Anqi instantly had a good impression of Ye Chen, "Those children were too thin and pitiful when they came. "The animals rescued from the Rohr family were taken to this adoption home by Mrs. Wesley, which has complete pet treatment equipment and a few veterinarians, so they were not sent to West Liverpool. Although there are many pet shelters in the city, these large pet rescue centers are always at full capacity.
In Mrs. Wesley's adoption center, Ye Chen and the others met the small animals that were brought that day, and they were placed in two small rooms on the third floor.
Speaking of which, I have to say that the main building of the adoption center. The main building on the third floor has many rooms, which are the classrooms and bedrooms of the original kindergarten, and each one is spacious. The room is surrounded by cages for the animals, and in the middle of the open space is where they play during the day, and a plastic board is used as a doorway to stop the animals inside.
There are two staff lounges on each floor of the main building, one for men and one for women, where they can rest and eat on weekdays, and there are people on duty here in the evenings.
In addition, there is a two-story house next to the main building, which is much smaller than here, and there is a clinic for the adoption center, which usually takes care of sick animals. Sometimes people from outside will also bring their pets here for treatment, which can be regarded as an additional income for the adoption center.
Although the space in the adoption center is not very large, there are quite a few people working here, and there are people in almost every room. However, these people are not permanent employees here, many of them are volunteers who volunteer here, people of all ages, and they all respect Mrs. Wesley and greet her warmly.
Standing outside the room on the right side of the third floor, Ye Chen and the others were blocked outside by a plastic board, and a girl was in the room taking care of these small animals that had just been rescued.
Susan sat on the ground, holding these little creatures who were already physically and mentally fragile to drink, each of them was very timid, and when they were fine, they just lay motionless in the cage, without any vitality.
After a few days of treatment, they are much better and no longer look like skeletons like they were when they first arrived. Touching the body that is getting healthier and healthier under the fur, my mood is much better.
Beside Susan lay four or five half-sized dogs, very attached to Susan, unwilling to leave her, lying on the ground staring at Susan. Ye Chen could see a sense of trust in the eyes of these animals.
"This is Susan, a very caring girl, and thanks to her care, these little ones can recover so quickly." Mrs. Wesley didn't seem to want to disturb Susan, and whispered to Ye Chen outside the door.
But Parker didn't move, as if he recognized the animals from his house, stuck his head out, and whined softly.
The people in the house and the dogs were awakened by the sound outside, and when they turned their heads, they saw Parker being held in Yuanyuan's arms. I saw that he kept tugging at his paws, trying to get down to the ground.
"Do you want to come in, little one?" Susan asked.
As if he understood this, Parker's actions became stronger.
"Yuanyuan, put down Parker and let it go and have a look." Seeing this, Mrs. Wesley told her to put Parker down.
Remove the leash from Parker's neck and place it inside the house.
As Parker slowly approached, the puppies on the floor in the room were nervous, and if you looked closely, you could see that their muscles were tense.
Susan also noticed the same as the puppies around her, and quickly touched them to let them relax.
