start with a pet store

Chapter 533: Lihua 36

Lu Jingxing took the raccoon flower from the customer's hand. The little guy was a little shy and stared at Lu Jingxing with innocent eyes, struggling slightly in Lu Jingxing's hands.

This was an adult civet flower. Lu Jingxing looked at its teeth first. It should be at least one year old.

The customer is an aunt in her 60s. She is dressed very simply and has a lot of cat hair on her clothes.

Lu Jingxing looked at Li Hua's feet and asked, "Madam, how did it get injured?"

The aunt looked at Li Hua's hind legs: "I don't know. I saw it on the side of the road when I went to the vegetable market early in the morning. It screamed loudly when it saw me. I felt sorry for it. It couldn't walk anymore, so I took it back. Well... Well... I have dozens of cats at home, and some of them were injured and I took them back. Usually they will get better after a while, but this one, I Seeing it like this, I feel that I am afraid that I will not be able to keep it well if I only feed it, and it is not very willing to eat. If it is not treated, I am afraid that it will not survive."

"You said you picked it up on the roadside, so it shouldn't have fallen from a building, it should have been hit by a car. It was indeed seriously injured. What you see now is that its hind legs are definitely fractured. I don't know if there are any. Internal injuries." Lu Jingxing frowned slightly, this was a bit troublesome.

"Yeah, I don't dare to touch it at home. You see, it has no energy at all, and it only eats a little bit of food. I think I'd better send it over to have a look." The aunt felt very distressed to see it like this. .

"Xiao Liu, help Auntie register the information first, and I'll arrange the filming." Lu Jingxing said as he walked to the filming room.

Xiao Liu took his aunt to the front desk to register.

The result came out quickly. His hind legs were comminutedly fractured. He placed the cat on the operating table. Lu Jingxing wanted it to move and crawl, but it could only raise its head slightly and move forward slightly with its front paws. Moving, starting from the buttocks, it can only drag it, and it doesn't seem to feel that its leg is broken and it will hurt, it just can't move.

What Lu Jingxing was worried about happened. It couldn't feel the back half of its body. It was paralyzed...

Lu Jingxing rang the bell and asked Xiao Liu to take Auntie into the operating room.

After explaining the situation in detail to the aunt, the aunt touched the civet flower a little awkwardly: "Then can it still be operated on? Can it be saved?"

Lu Jingxing nodded: "I can arrange surgery for its broken hind leg later, and then treat the inflammation to let it recover slowly, but its back half is paralyzed..." He shook his head slightly.

It's possible that there's something wrong with the spine...

"Then what should we do? I still have more than a dozen stray cats at home. I am very tired every day. It is paralyzed. Even if the fracture is healed, it is still waiting to die." Auntie looked at Li Hua with tears in her eyes.

Li Hua crawled a few steps, lost her energy, and lay down looking at the people talking, saying "Meow..." from time to time.

Lu Jingxing thought for a moment: "Have you been rescuing stray cats? How long have you been saving them?"

The aunt nodded: "Yes, I started to adopt stray cats six or seven years ago. At first, there were two or three, and my old man was fine. Later, it became more and more, and my family no longer wanted to care about me. I have spent all my retirement salary to do this, mainly because I am not in good health now and have to take medicine every day. However, whenever I see stray cats, I see how pitiful the little guys are, and I can bear it. I couldn't help but want to help, and when I had more, I had twenty or thirty of them, and gradually some of them got old, and some of them were adopted by kind-hearted people."

The aunt couldn't stop talking about the cats at home: "I have neutered them all, and now I don't have litters anymore, but this has made me very difficult. My old man has moved in with his son." , my son and wife have told me about this many times, and they sometimes send some cat food or something, but I live alone with the cats, and pet hospitals like yours do it for me at a reduced cost. They're not expensive, otherwise I wouldn't be able to help them." The aunt sighed and her eyes darkened.

Lu Jingxing knows that there are indeed many people who will help stray animals, including young students, office workers with better conditions, and middle-aged and elderly people like Auntie who are warm-hearted.

Although he has been running the store for so long, in the past, when others couldn't catch him or couldn't handle it, he would call and ask them to help him rescue him. Auntie like him rescued her and brought her home to be raised, and she was disliked by her family for this. He didn't contact him. However, I can’t help but feel sad in my heart. It’s not easy for my aunt.

He thought for a moment: "Mom, let's do this. It's really difficult to hear you say that. Just leave this civet flower here and I'll treat it."

The aunt looked up in surprise: "Really? Can it be cured?" What she was worried about was whether it could be cured?

Lu Jingxing nodded, trying to reassure her: "I'll try to treat it with traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and physical therapy. I can't guarantee that it will be cured, but I'll try my best."

"That's great, but...will it be very expensive? I...I don't have much money to treat it." The aunt was a little embarrassed. Although the civet flower was just picked up in the morning, she was the one who brought it over. , even if it belongs to her, she should naturally bear the cost.

Lu Jingxing smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. You just picked it up in the morning. I'll apply for our rescue fund for this."

The aunt's brows obviously widened: "Is this okay? Won't it make things difficult for you? It would be great if it was possible. I'm just afraid that this surgery is too expensive. Otherwise, I would have come directly if I picked it up in the morning. It's really... …”

"I understand, don't worry. Leave it to me." Lu Jingxing comforted her.

"Okay, that's troublesome, can I come see it later?"

"Of course, you can come at any time." Lu Jingxing originally wanted to say that he could help her, but he thought for a while and didn't say it. He would say it in the future if he needed help for anything else, and it was better not to talk too much. "The relationship is great, Mimi. You have met the lucky star and things will get better in the future." Auntie touched Li Hua's back and spoke to it softly, as if she was afraid that she would scare it if she spoke too loudly. : "Grandma has gone back. She will come to see you when she has time. You have to eat well and be obedient..." She said goodbye to Lihua gently.

Lu Jingxing waited for the aunt to go out and saw that there were three patterns on its head and six on its body. He touched it and said, "I'll call you... 36. Do you like it?"

If you want to change it in the future, you can change it. If you don't want to change it, 36 just has the pattern on it, which is quite cute.

"36, come on, let's bandage it first..." Lu Jingxing bandaged it very beautifully, so delicately that it looked like a work of art.

"Meow..." 36 was a little weak and his cry was very small.

It knew that this was helping it, and no matter how hard Lu Jingxing tried to protect it, it didn't resist at all.

"Are you obedient and not resisting, or do you not know the pain at all?" After bandaging, Lu Jingxing took out his acupuncture box. After thinking about it, he went out and brought in a box of cans. He should give it some nutrition first. Bar.

Open the can and put it in front of 36. It moved its ears, smelled it, and stopped moving again.

Lu Jingxing opened his heart and said, "36, you need to eat something so that I can perform surgery on you. Only then can you get better." It was like trying to persuade a disobedient patient.

36 tilted his head and looked at Lu Jingxing: "Meow...it hurts...I don't want to eat..." It tastes tasteless even if it hurts.

"Eat it obediently. Once you gain strength after eating, it won't hurt so much." Lu Jingxing touched its head, and the cat turned its head and rubbed it on Lu Jingxing's hand.

Then he lowered his head, held it up with his two paws, licked and ate it. Maybe he had never eaten such good food before. As he ate, his eyes filled with tears.

When Lu Jingxing saw this pitiful little thing, he felt that the soft string in his heart had been touched. He felt very distressed. He immediately took out a tissue and wiped it: "36, don't cry. We have a family and everything will be fine." .”

"Meow...ah..." 36 muttered twice while eating.

When it was full, Lu Jingxing helped it wipe its body with a tissue specially designed for cats, then took out his acupuncture box and gave it a few needles.

He tried it first to see if there was any feeling in the back half. He found that there was no feeling at all from the buttocks to the two hind limbs. He shook his head. He had to do this slowly and insist on it every day. It would probably take half a month at the fastest. It will be effective.

After getting the needle, Lu Jingxing put 36 into the cage.

Lu Jingxing was still confident in his acupuncture skills. He intuitively felt that he could help 36 heal his paralyzed hind limbs.

He thought for a while and decided to study this knowledge point again when he went back today. After all, there are not many operations in traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, so he had to learn more carefully.

He came to the hall and just sat down to take a rest when a young girl came outside the door.

"Is there a doctor?" The girl took a cardboard box to put it in. She heard her anxious question before she walked in.

Lu Jingxing stood up and walked out from behind the front desk: "What?"

The girl saw Lu Jingxing walking over: "Are you a doctor? Please help me quickly."

The girl opened the box. Inside was a hedgehog the size of a fist with a ribbon on it.

"What's going on?" Lu Jingxing squatted down, put on his gloves, and turned the little hedgehog over.

The rope was tied around the hedgehog's neck. The rope was broken now, but it was not taken out. It was still tied. Lu Jingxing stretched out his hand and pulled it, but found that it couldn't be pulled. Seeing him pulling the rope, the girl became anxious: "Hey, hey, You can’t pull it out, you can’t pull it out directly, I cut it off, and I can’t pull it out even if I try.”

Lu Jingxing picked up the boxes together: "Let's go to the operating room, it's not easy here."

The girl followed him into the operating room: "I just found it on the roadside. It was stuck between two stones on the roadside. Someone must have stuck it intentionally. I didn't notice it at first. It was my UU who found it. It just couldn't go away and kept shouting. I moved the big rock on top to see it."

As she walked, she said: "I saw that it was tied with a rope, and it seemed that it was still strangled. It must have been more than a day ago. I took it back and tried to cut the rope, but I found that even cutting it didn't work. The rope couldn't be pulled out at all." The girl spoke quickly, telling the story in a thunderous voice.
