Chapter 576 Home for Stray Animals

Taking advantage of Yang Xiaoxiao's early pregnancy and without affecting her actions, Liu Huaxing also planned to get everything done with the home for stray animals as soon as possible. In case Yang Xiaoxiao's belly gets bigger later, and he has to be busy when it's inconvenient to walk around. So this day Liu Huaxing brought Yang Xiaoxiao to the home for stray animals to see the situation first.

At present, the decoration has been completed here, and we are waiting for the mayor to come here to cut the ribbon and announce the opening a week later.

The whole home for stray animals is like a large nursing home, divided into two floors, the first floor is used to manage animals. Although this is a home for stray animals, these cats and dogs cannot be allowed to wander around outside.

They can be released to move around in some areas during the day, but they still have to be locked in cages to rest at night.

In terms of area, one floor of this place plus the simple shed in the backyard can accommodate four to five hundred stray cats and dogs. Although this number cannot fundamentally solve the problem, it is just right to alleviate the current situation.

What's more, this is only a temporary residence for stray animals. The purpose of establishing this place is not to allow stray cats and dogs to live here in the future, but to allow people to have a convenient channel for adoption. Therefore, the cats and dogs that come here will continue to flow, and such a large area is enough.

In addition, there is a second floor for the home for stray animals.

The second floor is some single rooms, which are used for older people to live in, which is equivalent to a nursing home. The old people can take care of the cats and dogs here, and the cats, cats and dogs can accompany the lonely old people. Of course, these stray cats and dogs used to accompany the elderly need to be screened so that the mild-tempered cats and dogs can accompany the elderly.

As for the staff here... Liu Huaxing uses a mixed approach of volunteers and regular staff.

Some choose volunteers, while the other use regular workers to take care of this place together.

The yard is very spacious, with fitness equipment for the elderly, and some toys for cats and dogs. The outer fence is designed to be higher but there are certain gaps. Cats and dogs can also come in and out freely. This is convenient for stray cats and dogs outside to occasionally come to eat after the animals in the home for stray animals are full.

"Well, generally speaking... I'm quite satisfied." Liu Huaxing nodded with his hips on his waist, "Although it's still a bit rough now, it can be improved gradually in the future." After speaking, he turned to Yang Xiaoxiao and asked, "What do you think, Strawberry?"

"I think it's pretty good." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled while holding his arm tightly, but she didn't care at all.

Since she became pregnant, Yang Xiaoxiao seemed to be more dependent on him than before, and became more and more clingy.

"That's it? In a few days, the mayor will come to cut the ribbon, why don't you just stay at home?" Liu Huaxing asked while kissing the soft roots of Yang Xiaoxiao's temples, "There may be a lot of people by then , and the stray cats and dogs are still not clean after all, I am afraid that they will infect you with germs..."

"No, I want to be with you." Yang Xiaoxiao pouted and said.

"Then you have to wear a mask." Liu Huaxing said seriously, "And you have to go back and take a shower after participating."

"Okay." Yang Xiaoxiao responded with a cute smile, "Anyway, I want to follow you."

"Of course, you can either stay at home or stay in my sight, and you are not allowed to go anywhere." Liu Huaxing nodded in satisfaction, and patted Yang Xiaoxiao's little head, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"The baby in her stomach said she wants to eat hot pot." Yang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and smiled proudly.

"If you want to eat it, just tell me, it's not that I won't make it for you." Liu Huaxing scratched her nose and said in a bad mood.

"Then..." Yang Xiaoxiao blinked her pretty eyes, and Liu Huaxing simply smiled and said, "You can't drink beer."

"You don't drink beer when you eat hot pot..." Yang Xiaoxiao frowned, but Liu Huaxing held her face and kissed her: "Have a drink."

"Gu..." Yang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and muttered something, but she could only compromise honestly. After all, it is not only Liu Huaxing who supervises her at home, but also the parents of the two families. She can't find a chance at all.

In the past few days before the opening of the Home for Stray Animals, Yang Xiaoxiao was recuperating at home obediently.

In addition to eating and sleeping every day, Liu Huaxing will also accompany her for a walk in the community, or swim in the swimming pool.

"My little strawberry is so pretty." Liu Huaxing sat by the pool, watching Yang Xiaoxiao swim slowly in the water.

"Where is it beautiful?" Yang Xiaoxiao wiped the water from her face and asked with a smile. Liu Huaxing reached out to her: "Everywhere is beautiful. My favorite is your curves, which are very round and well-proportioned. It is very pleasing to look at." .”

"Hey." Yang Xiaoxiao slowly swam towards him and grabbed his hand, "But her stomach is already a little swollen."

Liu Huaxing climbed ashore with her in his arms, let her sit beside him, and then gently touched her beautiful belly. There is indeed a slight bulge, because the girl's figure is too slender, so a little bit of bulge can be seen.

"Sorry..." Liu Huaxing kissed her lightly on the shoulder and sighed.

"Why do you apologize? It's your baby, and I want it too." Yang Xiaoxiao touched his face with a smile and said.

"Oh, I just feel...you are still a child, and you are going to have a child." Liu Huaxing said with his arms around her shoulder in distress. Yang Xiaoxiao looked at him with a smile, then said after a pause, "I'm willing to give birth because you love me."

"Silly girl..." Liu Huaxing patted her on the head lightly, and then replied, "Okay, let's take a rest after swimming? I'll cook hot pot for you tonight, and we'll eat it together as a family."

"Yeah!" Yang Xiaoxiao happily replied, helping him to stand up.

As the time came to the end of September, the home for stray animals officially opened.

Of course, although Liu Huaxing was present, most people didn't know him. Even those celebrities who have donated to the Home for Homeless Animals and have worked with Liu Huaxing. Ironically, whether it is for the government or for the stars, this place is just a place for hype, and they don't care about the significance of this place.

What's even more ironic than this is that on the day the home for stray animals opened, a large number of stray animals were sent over. Only about half of them were cats and dogs from the previous animal shelters and cat and dog rescue associations, and the remaining half were sent by their owners themselves, as if these people had been waiting for a long time for the home for stray animals to open.

As soon as they opened the door, they couldn't wait to send their pets here, as if they didn't have to bear the anxiety of abandoning them, as if sending their pets here didn't mean they were abandoned.

In Liu Huaxing's view, this is exactly a phenomenon of irony in this society. It's just that sometimes it's cats and dogs that are sent away, and sometimes it's elderly parents who are sent away.

The first batch of animals settled down, vaccinated, and the staff began to take care of the cats and dogs. The early work will be more difficult. These stray cats and dogs must be kept in cages at the beginning, and then they can be released slowly so that they can adapt to the environment here and get used to contacting people. Open for adoption.

As for those who are irritable or have stress disorder and cannot interact with humans normally, they will be raised in the home for stray animals. Although they can only be confined in a limited space, at least having shelter from the wind and rain and stable rations is better than being euthanized or freezing to death in a harsh environment.

However, there are quite a few people here today. A group of people who knew Liu Huaxing personally came to support him, and Beitang and Qiqi were the first to bear the brunt. The two of them have a pretty good relationship with Liu Huaxing now, and they often communicate in private, and they also know that Yang Xiaoxiao is pregnant, and they have congratulated them both on WeChat before.

"The idea of ​​the boss is really good." Beitang came to Liu Huaxing and laughed softly, "In this way, these cats and dogs will not starve to death outside in the future. It is really a very meaningful thing. "

At this time, Qiqi asked a little worriedly: "But, what about the expenses? Running such a big place, the monthly expenses are quite a lot, right?"

"Judging from the current situation, the monthly expenses here, including cat food, dog food, vaccine costs, staff costs and various supplies, cost more than 200,000 yuan a month." Liu Huaxing explained, "It's actually okay, cats After all, dogs are not like people. The cost of cat food and dog food is not particularly high. The key is that the government has waived the rent here, and the veterinary hospital has also provided a lot of help."

"That year it will cost several million." Beitang said hesitantly, "Why don't we both donate more."

"No need." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled from the side, "The donations I received before were nearly ten million, which is enough to run this place for a long time. My husband's monthly dividends and various interests are three to four million. When the time comes If we don’t have enough money, we’ll pay for it ourselves.”

"Yes." Liu Huaxing said with a smile, "I didn't run this place for making money. The monthly expenses of more than 100,000 to 200,000 yuan are acceptable to me. It's just that the old people and cats and dogs will be open here in the future." The mutual aid between them, the elderly who are willing to take care of cats and dogs can live in this place for free, and the expenses here may increase a lot at that time.”

"If there is anything we can do to help, please do tell us." Qiqi pursed her lips and said with a smile.

"Well, there are indeed." Liu Huaxing smiled, "Help me adopt a cat or dog from here, and then go back and publicize it to your water friends in the live broadcast room. I encourage everyone to adopt these good-tempered dogs. cats and dogs. We have a rule here, we will give away half a year’s cat or dog food, and some pet supplies after half a year of adoption.”

"I think it's good to adopt one." Yang Xiaoxiao also smiled, "Our coconuts and oranges are stray cats and dogs we picked up."

"Well, I see." Qiqi smiled and nodded, "Then I'll pick a cuter cat and go back and tell the water friend."

"I already have a cat at home, so I'll get a dog." Beitang looked down at the dog in the cage and smiled.

In fact, there is good news today that the new book has finally been successfully signed. It was originally planned to be published at the beginning of the month, but it took a long time due to certain factors, such as the time for editorial review and revision of the manuscript. The main reason is that I want to continue to write a daily casual article of the same type as dog food, but this kind of article is not so easy to sign for a lesser-known author.

But fortunately, I signed the contract after all. As for whether I can continue to post on this account, I will not know until I chat with the editor tomorrow. Because the rules of the starting point have changed now. In the past, one editor was in charge of one type of novel, but now it has changed back to the original editor in charge of one group of authors. If you want to post on another account, you will be notified separately. That's what happened in the past few days. I hope everyone can click to collect and recommend more.
