Chapter 10 Buying a Cat

All conventional rat trap props are invalid, and the rat trap project is declared a failure.

Caroline looked at Lucy's crying makeup and said, "Lucy, why don't you discuss with the landlord and let him allow you to have a cat!" ”

Lucy raised her head and said with a look of hatred: "Yes, to buy a cat, I must buy the most ferocious and mouse-catching cat!" ”

Lucy pulls up the surveillance video and sends it to the landlord, and after some haggling, finally gets the landlord to back down and get permission to keep a cat.

Then the next day, the two girls rushed to the pet adoption center non-stop, wanting to adopt an adult cat.

There are also pet stores that sell cats, but pet stores basically sell kittens that are months old.

The size of the kittens is not as big as the mouse at home, and I bought it back, and I don't know who caught whom!

Pet stores also have larger breeds of cats that can't be sold.

But those Garfield, Blue and White, and Muppets have never seen a mouse in their lives, and it's already good to buy it back and not be friends with it, let alone catch it.

It was they who came up with the idea of the wild cats that the adoption center had brought back from the streets.

These feral cats are all very wild, and before they were caught, they wandered the streets for so long, and they are definitely good at catching rats.

The people at the adoption center happily received the two beautiful women, introduced them to the adoption process, and asked them about their intentions after a simple questionnaire survey on their backgrounds.

"Two beauties, what type of cat do you want to adopt, cute, or clingy? We have a lot of abandoned children here, and they are all very obedient and well-behaved. ”

The person in charge led the two to the house, pointed to the rows of cats locked in iron cages, and said: "This is a puppet, the puppet is the most dear and clingy cat, I think you will like it very much." ”

A ragdoll cat weighing at least a dozen pounds, rubbing the fingers of the person in charge through the cage, looked really sticky.

But Lucy shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, this kid is cute, I'm sure he can find a suitable owner." ”

The person in charge said: "Are you not satisfied? Tell us what kind of cat you want to adopt? ”

Lucy replied, "I need a cat who can catch mice, and it must be the most important thing to catch mice." ”

The person in charge smiled: "This is really a coincidence, we just happened to contain a rat trapper champion today!" ”

The person in charge walked to a cage covered with black cloth with the two girls and said to Lucy, "This is a cat that a farm couple put in our place.

His owner told me that the cat helped them guard the corn granary and had caught more than 10,000 rats in a year.

If you want to have a cat because you have mice in your home, then this cat named Clark is definitely the best choice. ”

The person in charge lifted the cloth cover on the cage, and Lucy saw Clark's true face.

It was a blue cat with large gills and a stout body, and when the cloth cover was lifted, the blue cat was awakened.

It opened its eyes slightly, and it was a pair of cold, merciless ginger eyes, and a sharp gaze like a knife.

The blue cat yawned, then stretched.

As soon as it stretched its waist, it was covered with muscles and tendons, as if it could smash the iron cage with a single punch.

Lucy was happy with the blue cat.

Lucy was even more satisfied when she heard that the cat in the cage had caught more than 10,000 mice.

"How much, I want it!"

The person in charge smiled and said: "Seventy dollars, I can help you vaccinate your cat for free and provide castration services." ”

Lucy said: "No, no castration, get vaccinated right away, I'm going to take him now!" ”

The person in charge said: "Well, Clark is very strong, very aggressive, if you don't castrate, you'd better take care of it, don't provoke it." ”

He pointed to a listless Shiba Inu with his head wrapped in gauze in the cage on the other side and said, "Look, that stupid dog barked all night, and Clark opened the cage himself, got into the Shiba Inu's cage, and taught it this way." ”

Hearing that Clark was so ferocious, Lucy became more and more satisfied.

She happily paid the money, bought Clark a cat bag, a bag of cat food and cat litter, and hurried back to the rental house.

During the day, Jerry Zhao was not in the rental house.

After the two girls returned to the rental house, they packed up and discarded the sticky rat boards and rat traps, and sealed the windows and balconies, and then released Clark.

Clarke's turmeric pupils constricted like a thin needle, pacing around, sniffing around, familiarizing himself with his new home.

Lucy gently stroked the top of Clark's head and back and said, "Clark, I'll leave it up to you to catch mice, if you catch mice, I'll buy you salmon and chicken-flavored canned food." ”

Clark paused, meowing at Lucy, as if to say a word.

Lucy scratched Clark's chin, "What a smart cat!" ”

The two women locked Clark in the house, left enough water and a small amount of cat food, and left.

They return to Caroline's rental house and monitor Clarke's movements.

After they left, Clark looked around the rental house with very spiritual eyes, and when he smelled a strong smell of rats in one of the walls, he began to look for a place to hide, intending to wait for the rabbit.

Clark hid under his bed and remained motionless for hours.

The unchanging picture made the two women watching the surveillance almost think that the cat had fallen asleep.

It wasn't until nightfall that Jerry Zhao climbed the water pipe into the rental house that the two girls cheered up.

"It's coming, this damn rat came in from outside, does it mean that it's out foraging during the day?"

Lucy stared at the screen tightly, clasping her hands together, "Please, Clark, you must catch it!" ”

Obviously, Jerry Zhao, who had just returned to the house from outside, didn't expect Lucy to buy a cat to deal with him.

When he saw that the slime board and rat trap had been removed from the house, he thought that Lucy had given up on catching him.

Jerry Zhao smiled slightly smugly and jumped from the windowsill to the floor, intending to return to the mezzanine nest and rest.

At this moment, his mind suddenly cast a shadow, and a creepy feeling enveloped his heart.

Without warning, his heart beat more than 800 beats per minute.

"What's going on, why do I feel like I'm in trouble!"

Jerry Zhao hurriedly turned on the nitrogen armor to prevent accidents.

Just as he had finished his defenses, a shadow, like a ghost, pounced on him at great speed.

Jerry Zhao ran away, but as soon as he started the tire, he was pressed to the floor by this shadow.

"Squeak!"

Jerry Zhao instinctively screamed in fright, and his tail slapped the floor, making a thumping sound.

Lucy and Caroline, who witnessed all this from the surveillance, high-fived and celebrated: "Awesome, it made it, Clark it managed to catch this damn mouse!" ”
