A comfortable relationship should be like throwing a solid ball. Hold on tight, not too tight.
All eyes are on you, but it will become a burden.
If I don’t have a dog, I can’t stand the “feeling of debt.”
Dogs, a social animal, have a strict hierarchy. Once they obey you, they treat you as family.
DuDu in my hometown is an adult deer dog.
If I enter the house without touching his head, he can look forward to me all night, his eyes shining and silently asking me what he did wrong.
It’s so sensible that it doesn’t even dare to utter two disturbing grunts.
In rainy, snowy and windy days, if you don’t take it out for a walk, it will turn around anxiously at the door, aggrieved like a child who drops ice cream on the ground.
I can keep a cat because I am comfortable with this sense of relaxation.
On the other hand, grey boy, my smelly cat.
Cats, a solitary animal, are indifferent to everyone, which is called “insufficient socialization” in academic circles, and people are not smart enough to talk.
Its relationship with human beings is more like a roommate under the same roof, from ancient times to the present.
Under my social training, Grey Boy can come at any time and play casually, but that’s all.
I always know that it is not as dependent on me as a dog.
Every time I come back from a long business trip, it will obediently play with me for half an hour, and then run away to lick my hair or sleep after running out of limited patience.
That is to say, this just sense of distance can make a person like me who is involved in 996 fill some social gaps without so much communication pressure.
Speaking of 996, I am not worthy to have a dog as a topic writer in a small town ridiculed by the official media.
50-square-meter single apartment, moving bricks during the day, gnawing at documents and writing Zhihu at night, being copied by peers and vicious competition, is always on a business trip for a week.
I don’t have enough time and space for myself, let alone undertake a complete and independent life.
Dogs need to walk, need companionship, need a vast world and enough time.
As for cats, Japanese scholars believe that a circular area with a radius of 3 meters is enough for cats to live in it all their lives.
It’s not that I don’t want a dog, but that I can’t have a dog.
If I can, I also hope to live in a hardcover room, have both cats and dogs, and have a variety of social life, like the “X-drifting youth” painted in some film and television dramas.
But this is not the case. In the eyes of others, my work and education may be decent enough, but I can’t maintain the so-called “decent life” at all.
Of course, I hope one day.
You, me and people who love pets have enough energy, money, time and space to own a puppy.
I will always bless all those with soft hearts.
Comments from other netizens:
Netizen A: Cats that can sleep honestly are rare.
Netizen b: if the house is restless, it must be that the old man has no virtue. If a pet is disobedient, it must be that its owner can’t tame it.
Netizen C: In the winter morning, the cat dropped something at six o’clock until you woke up.
Netizen D: My family sleeps for more than 16 hours every day, and it won’t get up until I get up and open the refrigerator door (because I know I took out the shrimp).
Netizen e: Dog: Go out and play. I want to go out and play.
