Chapter 6 3. I am a cat

"Oh, don't look at it's chubby now. It was skinny when it first came, and its body was so dirty, full of cat lice and fleas. I changed six basins of water to wash it clean... ..." It was rare that someone came to visit, and Miss Zhaodi immediately told them about her patience and love, which made me feel uncomfortable.I took a chance and slipped out. The door of one room was ajar, but there was no one in it. I went around the room and found nothing interesting. I was about to exit when I turned around and saw a monster. It was a fat and short animal with distinct black and white, its belly was on the ground, its four white paws were short and strong, half of its face was black and half of its face was white, and its green eyes stared straight at me maliciously. There was a shock.

Suddenly, I saw the hairs on the animal's neck blow up, and it suddenly looked more ferocious, and a burst of fear hit my heart.But my instinct told me that it would be more dangerous to turn around and run. I tried my best to calm myself down and arched my waist on tiptoe to let myself overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum. At the same time, the monster also erected a big fluffy black tail, flicking it back and forth non-stop, whining and warning, but fortunately, it didn't pounce on me.We stared at each other viciously, and for a moment it was hard to tell. I don't know how long the stalemate lasted, I took advantage of its inattention, and quietly retreated step by step. When I was about to run away from the door, I suddenly found that the monster also retreated far away.

Ah, it turns out that it is afraid of me!For a moment, I didn't know where the courage came from, I pounced on it, swiped my claws and slapped the monster fiercely, and it also raised its claws to parry. With a slap, my paws hurt so badly, but seeing the monster grinning in pain, I must have taken it hard.I pulled myself together, bowed left and right, and fought with the monster. We were fighting fiercely, and suddenly I heard a burst of laughter behind me. I looked back in shock and saw a group of people around the door, pointing at me and laughing back and forth. Among them, Miss Zhaodi's laughter was the loudest. While laughing, he wiped his tears and bent down to rub his stomach.

I became angry from embarrassment. I clearly saw that he was in trouble, so he didn't come to help, but he only cared about making jokes. Such a selfish and ruthless person!I didn't care about that monster any more, I just bumped it out. Seeing that Miss Hengheng's door was ajar, I ignored Miss Zhao's call and got into Miss Hengheng's room. As soon as I walked in, I felt that the atmosphere was not right.A tall, unfamiliar man was sitting on the chair, talking softly with Ms. Heng Heng, both of them looked happy.Miss Heng Heng picked me up, and the man touched my head, but when his hand touched me, I felt awkward.

The instinct of our cat family is to be wary of men and children.This tall man may not necessarily do me any harm, but the atmosphere around him still makes me uneasy, so when Miss Zhaodi's big round face appeared, I was still relieved. It was the first time I saw myself in the mirror, and although I was terrified, my self-awareness was born.Yes, I'm a cat, a black and white tom with a funny face, and that's all I have in the world.I don't understand why this is the case, but there's nothing wrong with that. Afterwards, Ms. Zhaodi bought a big mirror and put it behind the door, saying that it was not because of my ignorance, but because her room was too simple, so she apologized to me.Sometimes she stood in front of the mirror with me in her arms, looked at it for a while, and then sighed: "An ugly cat, an ugly girl, we don't dislike each other, right?"
