Start at the pet store

"Okay, the lion cat and Ba Mao are fine, take them with you." Yang Pei wanted Lu Jingxing to bring two helpers with him first, and secondly, she hadn't seen them for a long time and she missed them a little.

Lu Jingxing smiled. How could they be fine? They were very busy now, but he also knew that taking Ba Mao with them to catch cats, especially kittens, would be more effective. He was also happy and agreed with a smile.

After lunch, Lu Jingxing set off with Ba Mao and the lion cat.

He first went to Xindian to pick up Yang Pei. He heard that there were quite a lot of cats. Song Yuan, who happened to be in Xindian, also got on the car with him.

"We haven't acted together for a long time. It would be a shame for the three of us if we don't have a big harvest today, haha..." As soon as Yang Pei got in the car, she hugged Ba Mao.

Ba Mao looked reluctant, but he couldn't resist Yang Pei's strong hug, so he could only reluctantly agree.

The few people laughed in the car and soon arrived at the community of my cousin.

I heard that a pet hospital was coming to catch stray cats for sterilization. Several aunties who often feed cat food to stray cats were waiting downstairs with my cousin and Shunzi early in the morning.

The property management of the community was also very helpful. They sent two staff members to cooperate with Lu Jingxing and his team throughout the process.

This was a bit beyond Lu Jingxing's expectations, because this community did not look like the property management was so responsible.

After receiving Lu Jingxing and his party, my cousin ran over happily. She said excitedly: "Our property manager specifically told me that because our property management was just changed this year, the manager said that he specifically asked the leaders above. They will pay a little money as compensation for this sterilization. When the cats are sterilized, see if you can send some back."

"That's no problem. It's best if the property management is willing to let them come back. When the time comes, you or they can send a representative to our store to bring some back." Hearing my cousin say this, Lu Jingxing was also happy. He thought there would be no funding this time, but he didn't expect to meet such an open-minded property management.

The cousin hummed and nodded: "Doctor Lu, where should we start first?"

Lu Jingxing smiled and said: "It's all right. I saw several cats in the flowerbed downstairs that day. Anyway, we have to catch all the cats in the community. Let's act separately." He said to Yang Pei and Song Yuan beside him.

The few people took a few trapping cages and went to different flower beds separately.

Song Yuan and his cousin went downstairs, and Lu Jingxing and Yang Pei took Ba Mao to the east.

Seeing Lu Jingxing coming with a cage, an owner who was basking in the sun downstairs asked: "What are you doing? What do you want to do?" The tone was not friendly at all.

"We were called by the property management to catch stray cats and take them back for sterilization." Lu Jingxing said in a good voice.

"Property management? You are so kind, are you going to catch them and sell them?" An aunt asked suspiciously.

"Sell them if you want to. I have always wanted to drive these cats away. They cry every night and make a lot of noise." An aunt sitting on a yoga mat said.

"No, we are not catching them to sell. If we don't sterilize them, there will be more and more cats, which may affect everyone's life in the future. So we have to catch them and sterilize them, and send them back after a week." Lu Jingxing hurriedly explained.

"No, there are too many. We can just catch them and send them back. Why do we need to send them back..." The auntie sitting on the yoga mat looked at the cage in Lu Jingxing's hand.

"How many can you put in these cages? I'm afraid there are at least dozens of cats here..."

"That's not the case, auntie. Your community property paid us to sterilize the stray cats. You should thank the property. We are pet doctors. We sterilize stray cats to prevent them from breeding continuously and affecting the lives of your owners." Yang Pei heard the unfriendly tone of the aunties and spoke up quickly.

"Yes, yes, it has an impact now..."

"Right, because male cats will cry and female cats will breed continuously, so what we are doing now is to catch stray cats in the community and sterilize them, just to control the number of stray cats." Lu Jingxing said patiently.

"But there must be stray cats in the community... Do you know what to do?" He said and looked at the owners.

"Why?" Sure enough, one owner couldn't hold back and asked.

"Because in summer, there will be more and more insects and rats in the community. There are stray cats to control the rat plague, so you should thank such a responsible property company. We charge for sterilizing cats." Lu Jingxing said seriously.

"That's right. I used to live in a community on the twelfth floor, and there were rats. It was because there were no stray cats in the community. As long as there were stray cats, the owners would drive them out. Listening to you, it seems to make sense. I live on the third floor now, and I haven't seen rats for many years." A young woman with a child said.

"Yes, yes, there are so many green spaces in our community, but we have never seen snakes or anything like that. In my mother-in-law's community, you have to be careful of snakes when you go out at night. It's scary." Another woman with a child echoed.

"That's true. There are basically no rats in our community. Even though there are so many restaurants in front, I haven't heard of people in the upper floors of the storefront saying there are rats." An old man stood in the crowd with his hands behind his back and said so.

"So, it's good to have cats in the community." Lu Jingxing smiled and continued the old man's words.

Everyone talked about this and that, and the owner who opposed it didn't say anything else.

Hearing this, the other owners stopped talking.

Some even enthusiastically led the way, telling Lu Jingxing which places had the most cats and then taking them there.

Lu Jingxing was a little surprised that it was so smooth.

However, none of the stray cats in the community were very thin, and none of them looked abused or had nothing to eat, so it seems that there are still many more people who like them than those who don't.

And when we went to catch cats, we could see that there were quite a few people feeding them in the community, because there were many feeding points.

These cats were not very afraid of people.

Lu Jingxing and Yang Pei also acted separately.

He took three cages and put a can of food in each cage. This can was Ba Mao's favorite.

The little guy almost couldn't help smelling the fragrance of the canned food. If Lu Jingxing had called slower, the first cat he caught today would have almost been Ba Mao.

Lu Jingxing looked at it and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Have you forgotten what you are here for today?"

Bamao was also a little embarrassed: "Meow... I know..."

"Okay, I forgive you, take me to see where there is one, we will use the bag to go to the net. Don't worry about the cage here for now." As long as a cat comes in, the cage can be closed by themselves, and they don't need to guard it.

Bamao "meowed" and took the lead in running in front, and Lu Jingxing followed behind with the bag.

Seeing that several cats in the flower bed stretched their heads out to look at him, he opened a can of food and placed it on the edge of the flower bed, waiting for the little guy to come out.

Bamao ran into the flower bed, got in, and quickly drove a few cats out.

After a black kitten with a little gray came out of the flower bed, it probably smelled the fragrance of the canned food, so it crouched and walked towards the canned food.

It was still very vigilant, looking as it walked.

Lu Jingxing stood about three meters away from the can, without moving, and quietly observed the little guy's movements.

Seeing that there was no one else around, the little guy finally took action.

It trotted a few steps, ran quickly to the can, and ate it without hesitation.

Lu Jingxing was sure that it was eating intently, so he quietly walked over, held the net bag high, and while the little guy was concentrating on eating, he caught it with a net.

"Meow... Fufu... Ha" The little guy who reacted was already in the bag. Seeing Lu Jingxing approaching, it used all its strength to haze him.

Lu Jingxing stepped on the stick in the bag tightly under his feet. The man quickly came to the kitten along the stick.

Yang Pei, who had put the cage away, ran over excitedly.

"Brother Lu, you are so quick, you caught one." He ran towards Lu Jingxing with a long green bag specially used for cats.

Lu Jingxing smiled and bent down, quickly picking up the first cat.

This bag is specially used to catch cats. It was invented by Yang Pei. The bottom of the bag is long and the opening can be tightened. The problem is that the cat can be transferred to another device from the tail of the bag.

This way, you can catch the cat without directly touching it.

"This is a female cat. Look at its belly..." Lu Jingxing held the bag high, looked at the little guy's bulging belly, and said to Yang Pei.

"I have seen several cats. If they are not sterilized, this community will be a disaster of cats in another year." Yang Pei came up with a smile and opened the cat bag. Lu Jingxing skillfully shook the bag's butt towards the cat bag, and the little guy slid smoothly into the cat bag.

The two did not make any extra movements throughout the whole process, and their tacit understanding was simply unbelievable.

Next, the second and third ones were all surprisingly smooth.

Back in front of the cat cages, there was one in each cage, and there were even two identical tabby cats in one cage.

Yang Pei's eyes were so happy that they were slits: "Brother Lu, this is a big harvest today, but it hasn't been very hard yet."

Just as they were cleaning up the cats in the cages, an old lady came over: "Young man, I heard that you are catching cats for sterilization?"

Lu Jingxing just put one of them into the cat bag. The cat bag is better than the cat cage. The bag is long and breathable but not transparent. The cats like this feeling, so after being locked in, they don't make any noise.

He looked up and saw an old lady leaning on a cane and asking him: "Yes, grandma, the property management has entrusted us to sterilize the stray cats in the community."

"That's fine, not bad, not bad, let me tell you, there is a cat with a very black body here, very smart, no one has ever caught it, it's a little male cat, and it likes to make trouble, do you think you can catch it?"
