Live Cat Appraisal: Starting with a Beast That's Got a Long Prison Record

Chapter 83 Innate Animal Holy Body
Pat pat pat—

The cat food that had been swatted away rolled far away. Xia Qiyue ran over in a flash, picked it up, blew on it, and put it in her pocket.

Chen Nian: Uh

Lin Qidong: "..."

The two stood there, looking at each other in bewilderment.

Chen Nian gave Lin Qidong an awkward yet polite smile.

"How about we try again?"

Lin Qidong froze on the spot, looked at the bristling little guy, then at his outstretched hand, and decisively withdrew it.

"No!"

Lin Qidong shook his head vigorously.

At that moment, he understood completely.

Food is just the first step!

What truly opened the heart of the desert cat and established this almost miraculous trust was a certain indescribable quality in the young man before him.

A kind of affinity that can make even the most wary wild spirits lower their guard, as if it comes from the very source of life!
Of course, this may also be related to the fact that the desert cat is still young.

Adult desert cats will not even give humans the chance to be tempted with food.

Cat Alliance has used predator-prey in many of its previous rescue operations.

But the success rate is extremely low!
In most cases, the desensitization is carried out at a distance using anesthesia, and desensitization training only begins after the desensitization is brought back to the hospital.

People like Chen Nian who immediately start hugging and intimately touching each other.

There are also.

But this only applies to top-tier players!
For example, there's Kim Walhart, who's known as a natural animal physique and has danced with large wild carnivores for 17 years without being bitten.

But even Hart did not seem to have demonstrated such a 'rapid' ability to establish diplomatic relations.

Chen Nian watched as the little guy calmed down again with just a touch.

Lin Qidong couldn't help but sigh.

"Perhaps our country will also produce an animal saint!"

"Haha."

Chen Nian simply responded with a gentle smile to this somewhat childish title, without saying anything.

My family knows their own affairs.

He was aware of the limits of his abilities.

This wonderful affinity belongs only to the feline world; it has no effect on other animals.

Soon, under the magical and precise massage of Chen Nian's slender fingers behind their ears and on the sides of their necks, the two little ones' eyelids began to droop.

They curled up on the soft padding inside the enclosure.

He gradually began to snore softly, and then drifted off to sleep.

Lin Qidong: "."

He no longer knew what to say.

It even involves artificial hypnosis, right?
Click.

The latch clicked down with a barely audible sound.

Only then did Chen Nian slowly exhale a long breath, her tense shoulders relaxing slightly, and a hint of fatigue showing between her brows.

"Okay, that's it."

He turned around and faced Lin Qidong, who was squatting beside him with his hands supporting his chin, his eyes filled with envy and jealousy but no hatred.

That look in his eyes was exactly like that of a child who, as a child, could only stand behind others in an internet cafe and watch them play with longing eyes.

"emmm"

Chen Nian couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lin Qidong then came to his senses, scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly, and chuckled twice.

He pointed to the box: "Is everything alright, Teacher Chen?"

"Hmm." Chen Nian nodded and asked.

"What are your plans for taking them back with you?"

He was referring to the question of whether the two desert cats should stay or leave.

It is impossible for them to stay here any longer.

This place is not safe!

If it really is related to poachers, they are likely to return, which would put the two little ones in great danger.

Lin Qidong naturally understood this as well.

His expression turned serious, his gaze steady: "For now, we can only place them at our field station. We will provide food and safe shelter. If they adapt well and are willing to stay near the station, we can observe and care for them long-term."

"If they exhibit a strong tendency to return to the wild"

He paused for a moment: "After the spaying surgery is completed, we will choose an area far away from the core habitat of purebred desert cats, an area suitable for their survival, for them to be released back into the wild."

Chen Nian nodded slightly.

This is exactly what he expected.

Their F1 generation status dictates that they cannot be arbitrarily released into the core area.

Sterilization is a necessary measure. Whether to keep them in semi-enclosed conditions for observation or release them into a different location afterward depends on their own adaptation.

Actually, Chen Nian prefers to be raised by the cat alliance.

With the help of Best's Eye, Chen Nian "saw" that the smaller desert cat suffered from congenital heart disease! It was highly likely to experience oxygen deprivation during strenuous exercise!

The best way to resettle them is for them to be raised by humans.

Based on this consideration, he then proceeded to give the massage, leaving the two little ones with the impression that humans could be relied upon.

This made it easier for the Cat Alliance members to contact them later.

If it were a purebred desert cat, Chen Nian would have no chance of handling it.

Chen Nian did not directly mention her heart condition.

Recognizing it as an F1 generation is already the limit, since that can still be explained by observation. But congenital heart disease can only be diagnosed by instruments.

It's too unrealistic to see with the human eye.

However, Chen Nian wasn't too worried.

After all, Lin Qidong will definitely conduct a full examination after taking the little guy back, and then the diagnosis will be made.

If all else fails, a gentle reminder is acceptable.

In the afternoon.

Lin Qidong carried the camouflage safety case containing the two sleeping babies on his back, preparing to set off back to the Cat Alliance workstation.

Before leaving, he stood beside the SUV and firmly grasped Chen Nian's hand:
"Teacher Chen, thank you so much this time! Without you, I wouldn't have been able to take them away so easily."

"Don't worry, I will take care of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu as if they were my own sons and daughters! I will also send you a message every day to report on their condition!"

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu are the names Chen Nian gave to the two little ones.

Their calls are unique; one calls something like 'ao', and the other calls something like 'he'.

Shouting and yelling.

Hence the names, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu.

He paused, his gaze fixed intently on Chen Nian:

"And please seriously consider my previous suggestion!"

"Your skills are far superior to those of the foreign experts we've hired! The Cat Alliance needs someone like you who truly understands cats, loves cats, and can communicate with them!"

After saying that, he didn't say anything more and deftly climbed into the driver's seat.

buzzing-

The engine started, the wheels kicked up fine dust, and carried two sleeping wild spirits and a respectful protector into the distance.

Gradually blending into the vast horizon of the plateau.

Chen Nian watched the car disappear.

He took out his phone, and on the screen was the invitation letter from Lin Qidong, a sincere one, for a special expert position at the Cat Alliance.

He shook his head, feeling both helpless and somewhat moved.

"We're too busy!"

Becoming an expert in the Cat Alliance's identification services was not within Chen Nian's consideration.

It's okay to help out occasionally.

However, my main job for now is still live streaming.

When Chen Nian returned to the guesthouse, Xia Qiyue had already carefully edited the precious video she had filmed that morning and uploaded it to various platforms.

This includes the entire process from Chen Nian climbing to the summit alone, patiently luring the cat while lying on the ground, to finally gaining its trust, feeding it with her palm, and soothing the sleeping desert cat!

The infinitesimal one walked over and patted him on the shoulder with a cheerful smile.

"Teacher Chen, your trip to Sichuan has been a great start!"

"With such a meaningful and heartwarming piece of footage on the very first day, our documentary's opening is a sure thing!"

Chen Nian gave a wry smile: "To be honest, Brother Liang, I wish I had never encountered them."

For ordinary tourists, encountering a desert cat, even a hybrid offspring, is a rare stroke of luck.

But for Chen Nian, who knew that it might be related to poaching, the appearance of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu was more like a silent alarm bell!

It serves as a reminder of the ongoing pain in the wilderness.

"Sigh," Infinite Quantity sighed understandingly, his broad hand conveying silent support: "This is not something that you and I can solve overnight. But at least you've given them a safe present and a hopeful possibility, haven't you?"

His voice was steady and powerful.

"Enjoy the emotions and sense of accomplishment that this encounter brings!"

"I believe that with Lao Lin and his men constantly investigating, those guys hiding in the shadows won't be able to keep up their act for long!"

The warm words, like the afternoon sun on the plateau piercing through the clouds, dispelled the gloom in Chen Nian's heart.

He took a deep breath of the crisp air, and a relieved and gentle smile finally appeared on his face.

"what"

He gazed at the distant, rolling mountains, his eyes resolute.

"Most definitely!"

In the afternoon, the rest of the team arrived one after another.

It completely enlivened the previously quiet guesthouse.

One of the young men, who looked not much older than Chen Nian, went straight to her as soon as he got off the bus, his face showing undisguised excitement.

"Brother Nian! I'm so glad to finally see you!"

This person's name is Lin Sen.
