"What? Can''t open the stray pet center? " Looking at Dominica Cecil, Jiang Hai smiles for a moment, then squeezed into the crowd and said to her with a smile, but only one of her white eyes came back.
"Your manor can''t go on. I can''t go on here. I''m the only stray pet center in Winthrop, supported by the federal government." Hearing Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica Ceci couldn''t help but hold her head high and say to Jiang Hai.
"Ha ha, then why do you send pets on the street?" Listening to Dominica''s words, Jiang Hai squatted down and looked at the pets she had prepared. He had to admit that there were many kinds of pets and a large number of them.
At a glance, Jiang Hai saw that in addition to the known cats and dogs, there were also hamsters, parrots, some other birds, and even expensive breeds such as chinchillas. Of course, many dogs were also very expensive, which made Jiang Hai feel that these people were really big. When he heard Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica squatted down.
"After all, the space of the pet center is limited. There are some old, disabled and sick pets that we will provide for their old age. But there are some pets that are in good health, in their prime of life or in their infancy. They may be abandoned, or their owners have died or moved. Every year, we encourage the masses to adopt some of them, that is, to reduce the number of pets To lighten our burden is to make people like these small animals more. " After Dominica Ceci finished, he picked up a small Labrador and rubbed his head in his arms. The dog was very close to people and wanted to lick her all the time.
"What are the requirements for adoption?" Looking at these dogs is really cute, so some onlookers can''t help asking questions.
You know, many of these tourists come to play with the elderly and children.
These two kinds of people have very low resistance to puppies, kittens and cute things. What''s more, they don''t need money to adopt here. In China, a pure breed Labrador costs at least several thousand yuan. Although the people who come here don''t need such money, who will refuse a free lunch?
"Tourists can''t adopt. Only local people with stable income can adopt. Sorry." However, it''s a pity that Dominica Ceci has directly rejected the image of these tourists. They are not dog dealers. After they sell the dogs, no one cares about them.
They are from the stray pet center. After these pets are sent out, they will make a scheduled visit to their home. What is their living environment at home, whether they have love, whether they have been abused, and so on.
It''s wrong to say that they are dog powder. They should be pet powder. They can''t see those things.
"Oh." Hearing Dominica Ceci''s words, many tourists let out a whisper. It seems that these pets can''t be taken back, while the local people are just watching and thinking.
To tell you the truth, there are many local people who don''t like to keep these things, because Winthrop used to be very poor. They didn''t have the money to buy these cats and dogs, dog food, canned meat and so on. They had a lot of trouble eating by themselves.
Although in the United States, dog food and canned food are very cheap, it also costs a lot of money.
Yes, there is a common sense in the United States, that is to buy cans to feed pets. It''s a luxury.
In the supermarket, a kilogram of canned minced meat costs US $1, and an adult dog costs US $60 a month to eat two boxes a day. This is not included in the money for dog food supplement. For the former Winthrop people, it may really be a burden, but now the Winthrop people have some money. They can''t ask about keeping a dog Yes, but we still have to think about it, because to some extent, it''s also an import.
But Jiang Hai didn''t pay any attention to these people at this time. He was still looking there. After looking for a long time, he couldn''t help looking at Dominica Ceci: "why didn''t there be that bear? I want to have a bear to play with
"Don''t even think about it. The bear has hurt people. It can only live in the pet center for the second half of its life. Zoos are not allowed to enter. And most importantly, it''s for protecting animals and entering the Washington Convention." Hearing Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica Cecil gave him a white look, and then said with a serious face that she would not break the law and help Jiang Hai with wild animals.
"Tut Tut, don''t talk about the useless one. What''s the matter with your tortoise if you don''t want to protect animals for adoption?" After hearing her words, Jiang Hai couldn''t help laughing, and then pointed to a cage under the pressure.
The cage is very big, about two meters long and two meters wide, pressing at the bottom. In the cage, there is a huge tortoise. The tortoise looks about one meter long. At this time, it is very indifferent to play in the sand.
"Oh, you say it. If you want to adopt it, this one can be adopted." Hearing Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica Ceci also looked at the big tortoise and couldn''t help smiling.
"Don''t talk about it. It''s no use. Do you think I don''t know? The tortoise is a protected animal, especially such a big one. " Hear her words, Jiang Hai''s eyebrows pick, then a face serious say, but only change back to Dominica''s disdain."You really don''t know. Indeed, most of the elephant turtles are protected species, but there are also non protected species. The elephant turtles are divided into small ones and large ones. There are four kinds of large ones, seven kinds of small ones, and one of them is extinct. The small yellow legged elephant turtles, Indian Star turtles and Burmese star turtles can be bred artificially. They are legal pets, big ones Among them, the angoloka tortoise, the sukada tortoise and the largest Galapagos tortoise are all protected and are not allowed to be reared privately. However, this little guy, the yadabela tortoise, is a class II conservation animal, not a protected animal, and can be entered through normal tax paying business. " After hearing Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica Cecil also eloquently introduced her to Jiang Hai. However, to tell the truth, after listening to her for a long time, Jiang Hai hardly understood what she was saying. He just knew that it seemed that the elephant turtle could be adopted and did not violate the law. This statement made him have some inspiration.
"And what does this thing eat?" Looking at this big turtle, Jiang Hai asked with some doubts.
"Eat everything, vegetables, fruits, grass, meat, fish, whatever you have, it eats." With a shrug, for Dominica Ceci, this thing is quite easy to keep besides occupying space.
"Can I adopt then?" Hearing her words, Jiang Hai''s eyes brightened. It seemed that it was good for him to raise a turtle.
"Naturally, you can be the richest man here." After hearing Jiang Hai''s words, Dominica Cecil smiles, and then says to Jiang Hai that the next thing is much easier. After Jiang Hai fills in a form, in the eyes of everyone''s admiration, he calls over the lively Edward Anderson. They move this big guy to the f750 they drive. Then Jiang Hai stops shopping and takes his car After giving azalina the key of the car and telling her to drive back at night, he drove the f750 back to the manor. When he got to the manor, Jiang Hai''s great power was reflected. He moved this guy down, opened the cage and put this guy in.
Basically, this adabella tortoise is approaching adulthood, but it''s just that, because the average life span of this tortoise can live to 200 years. According to Dominica Ceci, this tortoise is 20 years old, which is equivalent to about 10 years of human life span. Originally, its owner was an old couple from Boston, and the tortoise took the old man and the old woman as an example The children didn''t want to have them, so they sent them to the homeless pet center in Boston, and then they sent them back here.
However, although it is not an adult, it has lived for 20 years after all. With some wisdom, it knows that the grass outside is very good, so it slowly climbs out and begins to eat grass in front of Jiang Hai. Then it looks up and looks at Jiang Hai curiously. It may have no master in its mind, but it knows that it wants to communicate with Jiang Hai They live together.
"From today on, this is your home. I don''t need a cage to surround you. Now I''ll take you to see where you are at home." Looking at this guy, Jiang Hai slowly stretched out his hand and sent a aura to him. Then he held the huge tortoise and began to turn around in his home. He didn''t know whether it was the aura or whether the tortoise was really smart. Instead of shrinking into the shell, he followed Jiang Hai. He was always watching what was home and what could be played.
After a turn, including Jiang Hai on the other side of the forest, he put it down.
Looking at his reaction, he was obviously interested in the grassland and the surrounding areas of Tanshui River. This kind of tortoise usually lives in the forest, but now there are three giant animals in the forest. You should know that the tortoise was adopted. Dominica and she must have come to see it. In case they see the three, it''s not easy to do.
So Jiang Hai can only keep it in the house. Fortunately, it is also very interested in the camphor trees planted by Jiang Hai.
"You will be a member of the family, but what''s your name?" Looking at the big turtle who started eating grass again after putting it down, Jiang Hai touched his chin and began to study it. His soul of naming is ready to move again! (to be continued). )
