In my life, there is a lovely and naughty little guy, and it is my cat Noodles, with the nickname Tiaotiao. This name sounds full of fun, and what it brings to my life is countless joys and warmth, and of course, some small troubles.
Noodles will be exactly seven months old tomorrow. Time flies as fast as a white – horse galloping through a narrow gap. I still remember when I first saw it in the pet store. It was staying alone in a cage, full of energy. Its two eyes were round, like two shining gemstones, and it immediately caught my attention. But at that time, I was full of hesitation in my heart. On the one hand, I was worried that I couldn’t take good care of this little life. On the other hand, I was afraid that its arrival would disrupt my original life rhythm. Like this, I struggled for a whole week, but I always kept thinking about it in my heart. Finally, emotion overcame reason, and I brought Noodles home, starting our wonderful journey.
On the first night Noodles arrived home, it showed extraordinary obedience. Eating, drinking, pooping, and peeing were all normal, which made my hanging – heart finally settle down. I secretly rejoiced that I had met such a worry – free little guy. One or two weeks later, I took it to get vaccinated. That was its first time going out. Its cautious appearance was both nervous and curious, full of the desire to explore the outside world.
In the following one or two months, Noodles was simply my little shadow. It especially liked to climb on my lap and sleep, or get into the quilt and play with me and fall asleep together. At that time, I often felt that I was the happiest person in the world. With such a clingy little cat by my side, life seemed to become more beautiful. However, reality gave me a small “surprise”. About another month later, Noodles started to lose its baby teeth. Since then, it seemed to have changed into a different cat. It frequently chewed on my hands and feet. I tried all kinds of methods to make it get rid of this habit, but nothing worked. Fortunately, it didn’t bite too hard and didn’t hurt me. During that time, I could only use a cat teaser to distract its attention. Looking at its lively appearance chasing the cat teaser, I was both helpless and amused. At the same time, Noodles was growing quietly and unknowingly entered puberty. It was no longer as dependent on me as when it was a kitten. It no longer climbed on my lap to act coquettishly, which made me, the “old mother”, feel a little lost and sad.
What worried me even more was that during puberty, Noodles drank too little water, resulting in constipation. Seeing it in pain, I was extremely anxious and quickly took it to the hospital. In the hospital, the doctor took an X – ray for it and then performed an enema. At that moment, in the presence of me and the doctor, Noodles experienced the most embarrassing moment in its cat life – having diarrhea. Although the scene was a bit awkward at that time, seeing that it finally pooped smoothly, the joy in my heart was indescribable. That kind of happiness was like winning a big prize.
In order to make Noodles drink more water, I specially bought a Xiaopei water dispenser and equipped it with a 5 – milliliter syringe, patiently feeding it water every day. Hard work pays off. Under my careful care, Noodles’ current poop situation is very good, and my hanging – heart finally relaxed. Moreover, with the end of the teething period, it no longer bites me. Now, except that Noodles doesn’t like to be held by me very much, it is simply a perfect little angel. It will run over to greet me when I come home, rubbing its little head against my legs. It will lie quietly beside me when I watch TV, accompanying me to spend a leisurely time.
Since I got Noodles, my life has changed a lot. Every day when I come home, I look forward to seeing its cute figure. When I leave home, I also worry about whether it is okay. It is like a sweet burden in my life. Although taking care of it sometimes makes me feel tired, the joy and warmth it brings me are immeasurable. I am very glad that I didn’t miss it because of hesitation at the beginning, but chose to bring it home and let it become the most important part of my life. In the days to come, I hope to always accompany Noodles, witness more of its growth moments, and create more beautiful memories together.
