I have a wildlife zoo

Chapter 320 Eunuch Hua

After the call, Fang Ye added the WeChat number Mother Fang had sent, and explained his requirements.

He wanted to custom order two different styles of animal hoodies, 1000 sets of each style in various sizes.

Originally, he had thought about starting with a trial batch of just one or two hundred sets to test the waters and see if the visitors liked them, but then he felt it would be too troublesome to restock if they sold out all at once, so he decided to just make 1000 sets to test the waters.

He thought the hoodies were quite pretty, but worried his taste might not be good, so he showed them to Lan Li, who also said she liked them very much.

Then that should mean there's no problem.

...

"Meow~ Meow~"

While Fang Ye and Lan Li were watching TV in the house, the sound of a cat meowing could be heard.

Fang Ye turned his head to look at the glass door leading to the side yard from the living room and saw behind the glass, the head of a cat with black, white, and yellow markings on its face. Seeing Fang Ye looking over, the cat quickly scratched at the glass and then tried to squeeze through the crack in the door.

Open the door, let me in!

Lan Li said with surprise, "Ah, Huahua!"

Fang Ye stood up, opened the door for it, and said helplessly, "You really come and go as you please! Where have you been roaming these last few days?"

They had already made a cat nest for Huahua at home!

He put her in her nest and lectured her, telling Huahua that this was now her home and she shouldn't run off anymore, but clearly, Huahua didn't take it to heart.

As soon as Huahua came in, she rubbed against Fang Ye's legs and looked up at him, meowing.

I'm hungry, hurry up and feed me!

Lan Li had already come over with a can of cat food, opened it, and poured the meat onto a plate, saying softly, "Huahua, eat."

Fang Ye said ominously, "After you eat, it's time to snip your balls!"

They had already planned to neuter him a while ago, but Huahua had taken the opportunity to escape when Lan Li wasn't paying attention.

Now that he's back, they must get this done!

Hmm?

For some reason, Huahua suddenly felt a chill down below and inexplicably turned to glance back at Fang Ye.

The meat doesn't smell that good anymore!

Fang Ye took out his phone and snapped a photo, "A pre-neutering shot, let's commemorate this moment!"

Then he picked Huahua up, "If you're done with the meal, let's go."

Huahua: Meow meow meow? What are we going to do, meow? Let me have another bite, meow?

She quickly ate another big mouthful!

Then Fang Ye and Lan Li took Huahua to the vet to see Lin Ying.

Lin Ying patted Huahua on the head and said with a chuckle, "Director Fang can rest assured, I've snipped more cat balls than the fish balls I've eaten! I haven't performed this old task in a while. I wonder if my hands have gotten rusty?"

"Hahaha!"

Both of them showed their teeth, letting out a devilish burst of laughter.

Lan Li stroked Huahua, trying to comfort her, "It's okay, the anesthesia won't let you feel any pain!"

Different animals have different roles.

Wild animals are part of the ecological environment; their very existence is about maintaining ecological balance.

Livestock are domesticated to help humans till the fields and produce food, or to be slaughtered for eating.

Cats and dogs were originally assistants to humans, like cats catching mice to protect the granary and dogs hunting alongside people.

Now, as pets, their function is to accompany people and provide emotional support.

If we do not clearly understand their status, and mistakes are made such as buying bred animals to release into the wild, keeping wild animals as pets, or treating pets as if they were wild, that's not called kindness.

Domestically bred animals simply do not have the ability to survive in the wild, and releasing them carelessly will soon lead to their death. Throwing turtles into water and thinking they are swimming back in gratitude when they head for shore, only to throw them back in—how benevolent.

In fact, they could be freshwater turtles or tortoises, and after being thrown in twice, sinking reluctantly, they are drowning. There are even cases of snakes being released on the hills near residential areas, causing panic—doesn't this disrupt the harmony between humans and nature?

If wild animals are kept as pets, their wild instincts are difficult to tame, and raccoons are an example. Introduced as pets in Japan and then abandoned when found difficult to care for, they have become invasive species, damaging buildings and displacing native species—it's still a problem.

As for treating pets like wild animals, irresponsibly abandoning or not properly taking care of cats and dogs leads to them becoming feral, spreading rabies, hunting wildlife, causing a series of issues.

Therefore, they should be treated with different attitudes from the start.

When cats are in heat, they suffer greatly, becoming overly excited, losing appetite, and gradually becoming emaciated. They might run away from home or even jump from buildings. Mating is not a pleasurable experience for cats but a painful ordeal.

After neutering, not only is the pain during heat alleviated, but also the risk of diseases is reduced. Female cats can avoid ovarian cysts, and male cats can avoid conditions like testicular inflammation—healthier, more docile, longer-lived, with less pain and fewer strays.

Some might think, "Ah, doesn't neutering sound cruel, depriving them of the right to reproduce?" But this lack of understanding leads to the realization that neutering is actually a responsible action.

When Huahua was being examined, she was very uncooperative, kicking her legs trying to escape and continuously meowing loudly. After Fang Ye applied a soothing skill, she calmed down immediately.

After the check-up, Lin Ying carried Huahua into the surgery room, grasping her armpits, with a dour cat face.

The surgery was soon over!

When she was brought out, she lay on the pad, groggy and sticking out her tongue.

As the anesthesia started to wear off a bit, she could barely open her eyes and lay listlessly as if devoid of any desire to live, unable to move a muscle.

After a while, she stirred slightly.

Fang Ye cradled Huahua's face and smiled, "Huahua? How are you feeling?"

After rubbing her face, Huahua's eyes opened, ah, her body felt lighter.

She stared blankly ahead with calm eyes, like a sage who had seen through the world's vanities.

Free from worldly desires.

Lin Ying showed Fang Ye the two testicles that had been removed. Fang Ye then showed the gauze-wrapped testicles to Huahua, "Look, these are your testicles."

Huahua poked her head over for a glance, sniffed them, and then her eyes seemed to moisten slightly.

My… my testicles…

She turned her head away, as if to say, "Take them, they only bring me sadness."

Lan Li gently draped a towel over Huahua, "Don't catch a cold!"

Huahua rested her chin on the towel, a picture of dejection!

Once Huahua had recovered somewhat, they brought her home.

Wearing an Elizabethan collar, she still wobbled as she walked, occasionally stumbling.

…

Time flew by day by day!

The tropical rainforest aviary was also ready to start business.

As the chief bird supervisor, He Yifei has been busy with the introduction of birds to the flock recently.

While mixed species cohabitation can increase interaction among the birds and enhance the display, cohabitation can also lead to fighting; different groups might clash over territories, and animals are more aggressive during breeding seasons, making it quite a headache.

Species like hornbills and toucans can be aggressive towards smaller birds, so they have separate enclosures.

However, Fang Ye won another Friendliness Spray in a lottery, a spray that reduces animal aggression when dispersed in the air. With the aid of his tool, the process of integrating flocks went relatively smoothly.

Next, they posted about the soon-to-open aviary on the official social media account to start the promotion earlier.

The visitors who usually enjoyed coming to Linhai Zoo had already noticed the hemisphere-shaped building under construction, an impressive sight, and had inquired about the upcoming tropical aviary, all eagerly anticipating its opening. Explore more at empire

Now that they knew it was finally completed and ready to open, their excitement surged, with many commenting that they would visit as soon as it opened!
