my friend is a stray cat

After the birth of the three kittens, driven by motherhood, the female cat became much more courageous. Instead of curling up in a corner every day, she found a restaurant with a smell of food and came back with some food. Once she On the way back with a small piece of corn in its mouth, I happened to see Ah Ye walking into the small alley. The mother cat dropped the corn and ran over to protect the three cubs waiting to be fed before Ah Ye approached. When she looked up again, she saw Ah Ye He looked at her calmly with a whole sausage in his mouth.

The mother cat felt that the other party did not seem to be hostile, and the cat hair that exploded on the tail gradually fell back. Ah Ye put down the sausage, did not speak, and did not linger on the three kittens for a long time, turned and left.

At this time, the female cat said behind him: "Aye, thank you."

Ah Ye paused, turned around and said, "I didn't intend to let you in. If you want to express your thanks, go and thank Chenghui."

"Is that so..." The mother cat paused, and said in a gentle voice, "It's rare to see you have a partner."

"Not a partner." Ah Ye said, "He's a house cat."

The mother cat nodded and said slowly, "I see."

"But don't take his kindness for granted." Ah Ye's tone suddenly carried a warning, "Don't think that the grievances between you and me are just for nothing."

The mother cat didn't speak any more. It squatted on the spot and watched A Ye walk away. Its eyes stopped on A Ye's limping front legs for a long time. After A Ye's figure disappeared from the alley, the mother cat turned her head Looking at the three kittens shivering together behind them.

After Ah Ye walked to the main road, he followed the traces of the sun. Occasionally, passers-by whistled or called Mimi to him, but Ah Ye completely ignored him. It gradually slowed down and finally stopped, listening to the surrounding sounds with ears open.

A second later, Cheng Hui sprang out from the green belt and threw himself on A Ye, pinpointing the scar on his shoulder and licked it. In order not to be beaten, Cheng Hui ran forward without looking back after licking, A Ye Looking at the yellow and white dumplings in front of him, he shook his body helplessly.

Cheng Hui later ran to the door of the hardware store and hid under Douding's belly. After hiding for a long time, he didn't hear any abnormal noises, and he was really out of breath, so he poked his head out from under Douding's belly. Come, as a result, as soon as he took a breath of fresh air, he received a paw on the head, and then heard Douding's wanton laughter.

"Thank you, Ah Ye, I have paid off that claw on my eyelid this time." Douding said with a smile.

Cheng Hui pulled out a paw and wiped his head.

"Come out." Ah Ye said.

Cheng Hui reluctantly crawled out from under Douding's belly, hooked his claws back and pulled out his tail, and looked at A Ye with his ears drooping slightly, thinking of countless excuses in his mind but daring not to say them.

Douding finally had enough of laughing, coughed twice, and said as seriously as possible: "But Aye, you can't blame him, Chenghui also wants you to get better soon, it's all good intentions."

"I know." A Ye stared at Cheng Hui, "But don't attack me."

"Oh..." Cheng Hui dragged out his voice for a long time.

At this time, Douding moved his two front paws forward, hesitant to speak.

Ah Ye asked him, "What?"

Douding lowered his voice, "Then what, how long will the mother cat and those kittens stay?"

A Ye pointed at Cheng Hui with his chin, "He put the female cat in, you ask him."

"This..." Cheng Hui wiped his head again, "It should wait until a few kittens will leave." Cheng Hui glanced at A Ye with his eyes as he spoke, observing the other party's emotions.

"It will take about twenty days." Douding licked his mouth, "My master said that he can always hear the little milk cat meowing at night, I think, if these cats keep doing this, say Maybe it will annoy some human beings, and then this side will be... not very safe."

Ah Ye looked at Cheng Hui.

Cheng Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "Understood, I will let that female cat leave as soon as possible."

Douding poked Aye lightly with his paw, "You really don't care at all?"

A Ye shook his head, left the door of the hardware store and continued to walk forward, Cheng Hui snorted dissatisfiedly at his back.The door of the hardware store was pushed open at this time, and Cheng Hui ran away from Douding when he heard the voices of humans, and walked around the green belt, feeling bored, so he turned back to the narrow alley, and Ah Ye He was squatting under a small piece of sunlight, his body was dyed a piece of gold, and he was basking in the sun with his eyes squinted.

Cheng Hui lingered at the entrance of the alley for a while, and then approached with light steps. A Ye, who had his back to him, turned his head slightly at that time, and then straightened his head after a few seconds. Because of this action, Cheng Hui was very sure Ah Ye knew he was coming, so he didn't take his next step so cautiously. He walked right behind Ah Ye and squatted down on the dividing line between sunlight and shadow.

As time went by, the dividing line was also moving, and Cheng Hui also slowly moved his body along with the dividing line, and the dividing line finally landed at the root of Aye's tail, and Cheng Hui didn't dare to move again. He moved forward, just stretched out his paw, and lightly touched A Ye's back.

Ah Ye just shook his ears perfunctorily.

Cheng Hui retracted his paws and hung in mid-air, watching the dividing line slowly move to A Ye's back, Cheng Hui stretched his neck forward, and his wet and soft nose just touched A Ye's back Back, he sticks out his tongue and licks a little tentatively on his scar.

Ah Ye didn't move, what Cheng Hui didn't know was that Ah Ye had closed his eyes now.

Cheng Hui regarded A Ye's reaction as acquiescence, so he became bolder and licked his scar gently and slowly. In the process, Cheng Hui found that A Ye's jet-black cat hair was fine and relatively hard, like crouching in late autumn. Weeds on the ground.

"Okay..." When the dividing line passed A Ye's head and landed on his front paws, A Ye said, "It's ok."

Cheng Hui moved his face away and moved back a little. Ah Ye's figure had completely submerged into the dark side, and the scars were also hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to distinguish. Cheng Hui suddenly missed Ah Ye who was bathed in the sun not long ago. .

In the next ten days or so, Cheng Hui will help A Ye lick his wound every evening, but the time he has such close contact with him is not long, according to Cheng Hui's estimation, it will be less than 10 days. [-] minutes, but the scars did start to heal, although Ah Ye's footsteps were still a little limp.

Ah Ye's wounds began to heal, and one of Chenghui's worries was let go, but then there was another thing that made him feel troublesome.

Cheng Hui chose a sunny afternoon to appear outside the small alley where the mother cat was. She poked her head around the wall and saw the three kittens staggering along the wall. The mother cat was waiting not far away, her eyes full of kindness. After the three kittens approached her, she gently lowered her head and licked each one's head.

Cheng Hui watched quietly, not disturbing, the mother cat found him only when she turned around, was startled for a moment, and then walked towards him.

"I haven't had time to say, thank you," said the mother cat.

"You're welcome." Cheng Hui wagged the tip of his tail, took a deep breath, and said, "But...you guys staying here is not an option."

The mother cat understood the meaning of Chenghui's words, after a moment of silence, she said softly: "I know, I will take the children and leave soon."

Cheng Hui said: "Okay, then you must pay attention to safety."

"Don't worry." said the mother cat, "I will find a good place for them."

Cheng Hui nodded, looked at the three kittens stuck together, and found that they were looking at him curiously and fearfully, Cheng Hui waved his paws at them as farewell.

In the evening of that day, Cheng Hui saw the mother cat taking the kittens out of Ah Ye's territory one by one. When she picked up the last kitten, she happened to meet Ah Ye who had returned from patrolling. The eyes of the two met for a moment, but the mother cat ran out of the territory with the youngest kitten in a blink of an eye.

Chenghui sat on a flower bed, watched the mother cat run away, and silently wished in his heart that the three kittens would grow up safely and healthily. Douding at the side seemed to see his thoughts, and sighed: "It's true." I don’t know if those three cubs can survive.”

Cheng Hui turned his head and asked, "What do you think is the probability of surviving?"

Douding shook his head, yawned and said, "It's not that big, it's about the same chance as picking up bones on the road."

"Then I wish them good luck." Cheng Hui jumped off the flower bed, also forgetting about this matter.

And on the night two days later, the weather happened to be gloomy, and it was about to rain, the moonlight was completely blocked, and the street lights on the street seemed to be much darker than usual. Ah Ye didn't like this kind of weather very much. Stuffy, his breathing didn't seem to be smooth for him, and he curled up in his corner early this day, drowsy.

At midnight, three more cats appeared on the quiet road. The street lamps stretched their shadows very long, and the three pairs of eyes also reflected the penetrating light in the dimness.

"According to our prior agreement, after I succeed, I want one-third of the territory." A voice sounded at midnight. If Cheng Hui was here, he must have found this voice familiar, because the owner of the voice was the one who gave birth here before. female cat.

"Okay, but are you sure now is the best time to kill Ah Ye?" Another hoarse voice asked.

The female cat said in a low voice: "He is limping now. I guess the injury from the fight with the wild dogs in the second block did not heal. If you don't take advantage of this time to kill him, you may not have a chance when he recovers from the injury. "

"That's true," said another voice, "but didn't you say there was a cat living here?"

The mother cat said: "That is an abandoned or lost domestic cat. It will not participate in this kind of fight. Even if it participates, it is easy to deal with."

"Um……"

The mother cat urged: "If you want to do it, be quick, my cub is still here..."

The mother cat paused in the middle of her speech. She found another figure hiding in the dark night. That figure approached her two steps. The other two cats turned their heads and saw a yellow and white cat.

Cheng Hui's eyes were as disappointed as when the mother cat was rejected by Ah Ye that day.
