There's a chat group for pets in my neighborhood.

Chapter 109 Adoption Plan

"Adoption?!"

The sheriff was squatting on the table in the room, enjoying a can of salmon.

After hearing this clearly, he stopped eating the canned food and started pacing back and forth.

"Are you serious?" The sheriff looked at Lu Fang seriously.

"Of course." Lu Fang nodded: "I know there are actually quite a few stray cats and dogs in our Tiancheng community, but they are kept in check by Brother Li and you, so they don't come out to roam around very often. People think that Tiancheng community is well-managed and there aren't many stray cats and dogs."

"If I'm not mistaken, most of the protection money goes to food for them."

"This won't solve the problem; adoption is the best solution."

"I didn't have much ability before. Besides giving you some food, I couldn't help you much, but now it's different."

Lu Fang's eyes were sincere; he knew that adoption was truly for their own good.

The sheriff stopped and gave Lu Fang a deep look: "If you can help them find a truly responsible owner, I will thank you on their behalf."

It knows better than anyone the cruelty of life on the streets. Even if those little guys have the protection of Brother Tanuki and don't have to worry about food, they can't survive more than a few cold waves in winter. A minor illness can kill them, not to mention that many die from accidents every year.

For them, having a home where they have enough to eat and drink and shelter from the wind and rain is the greatest luxury.

"This is a good opportunity." Lu Fang sat cross-legged on the bed with his hands clasped. "Zhao Yu sent me a copy of his factory information. It makes precision instruments. The environment is very clean, and the factory area is well-landscaped. This guy's factory is quite large, and he has made a lot of money over the years."

"If this adoption goes well, it might even encourage other people in our community to adopt."

"You mean, for this adoption slot, you want to choose the best-looking, the most obedient, and the most affectionate one?" The sheriff, true to his word, got it right away.

"That's exactly what I meant." Lu Fang clapped his hands suddenly, his eyes sparkling with approval. It's so convenient to talk to smart people.

"Oh, right, I have another idea." He casually pulled a drawing out of his pocket; it was a renovation plan for the walls of the lobby on the first floor of Ark Pet Hospital.

Lu Fang spread the blueprints on the table, and the sheriff also came over. The two of them, one human and one cat, were pressed together, staring at the blueprints.

"I plan to turn the most prominent wall in the lobby into the Ark Adoption Wall. In the future, we will take pictures of all the healthy and good-natured stray animals in our community, hang them up, label their personality traits, and change them regularly."

"Adoption is free, and I'll also include a first comprehensive health check-up and deworming and vaccinations. This will not only help you alleviate the pressure of survival, but also bring the hospital a good reputation and loyal customers."

"Aren't you losing money?" The sheriff turned his head to the side, his hairy cheeks tickling Lu Fang.

"There will definitely be a small loss in the early stages, but I've calculated it out. If the operation is stable in the later stages, there won't be any problems. Given the current operating conditions of our hospital, it's enough to cover the initial losses." Lu Fang's eyes sparkled as he talked about these things.

The sheriff just watched him speak eloquently in silence.

Then, surprisingly, it walked up to Lu Fang, nuzzled him, and voluntarily turned its belly up.

Lu Fang was shocked to see the police chief looking like this.

"What are you doing!"

Imagine this: your comrade-in-arms suddenly climbs into your bed, looks at you seductively, and says, "Brother, you smell so good. I have no way to repay you except..."

Your first reaction is, "Am I lucky?" or "Oh no, I'm doomed, I'll definitely wake up tonight if I run into a piece of poop that I can't get stuck in my stomach!" "I thank you on behalf of those little guys." The sheriff blushed and quickly returned to his normal sitting posture.

Fortunately, the cat's blushing face made it hard to tell.

"You scared me to death! I thought you were possessed by a ghost."

The police chief blushed.

"Alright, alright, this matter can't be delayed. I'll contact Brother Tanuki right now and select ten as soon as possible!"

After saying that, the sheriff fled the scene.

Tiancheng Residential Complex, a secret base located in the underground parking garage.

"Is everything you said true?" After listening to the sheriff's account, Tanuki, who was usually decisive, remained silent for a long time.

"Absolutely true." The sheriff nodded.

Two cats lay on a soft cushion, watching the half-grown kittens chasing and playing in the corner, and then looking at the gentle stray dog ​​next to them with tender eyes.

These are all family members whom Brother Tanuki raised one by one.

"What's wrong? Can't bear to part with him?" The sheriff asked softly, seemingly noticing that Tanuki's condition was off.

"Bullshit! I'm just afraid these little guys won't behave well and will throw the cat away for me." When it comes to being stubborn, Tanuki is in a class of its own.

"I'm not stupid. It's best if someone is willing to take these little guys in. They can barely make ends meet here, but they can't live in the light of day. They should go to a good family and live a good life."

Tanuki stood up and walked over to the group of little guys.

They were unaware of what was happening. When they saw Tanuki coming over, they all crowded around him. A little tanuki straddled Tanuki's head triumphantly, while a little orange cat rubbed affectionately against Tanuki's leg.

A stray golden retriever puppy also came over, which startled Tanuki, who quickly took two steps back.

Cats rubbing against you is one thing, but dogs rubbing against you without any restraint. Last time, Tanuki almost had his ribs broken by a stomp, and it took him more than a month to recover.

Despite his ruthless and decisive nature in the eyes of outside gangs, Brother Tan also has a tender side at this moment.

"Go ahead and call over the most clever and affectionate ones. Also, you personally pick three of the most reliable dogs that don't bark and can guard the house, and seven of the most beautiful and clingy cats."

"Let those foolish humans know that every single stray cat in our Tiancheng community is an absolute gem—affectionate and doesn't meow excessively!"

"Don't worry about me handling things!"

The next morning, Lu Fang and Xu Yi had just arrived at the entrance of the pet hospital when they noticed some noise in the alley next door.

Upon closer inspection, ten little creatures were squatting neatly at the doorway, their eyes darting around. When they saw Lu Fang and Xu Yi approaching, they didn't hide but instead swarmed over to them.

"Wow, they're so cute! Such beautiful long-haired calico! This orange cat looks so intelligent! I love them so much, I want to have one too! Don't lick me, little dog!" Xu Yi was amused and hugged the three kittens tightly, refusing to let go.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry up and take these little guys back to the shop for a bath and beauty treatment, and then send them to Zhao Yu!"

""

Lu Fang asked Xu Yi for help and brought the ten little ones back to the hospital. They were well-behaved and not afraid of people at all.

After they left, Tanuki and the sheriff emerged from the alley.

Tanuki's eyes were full of reluctance: "These little guys, don't embarrass me!"
