Forest Ranger, starting from Picking Up a Lynx Girl-Chapter 50 The Name Mendun’er Can’t Be Shaken Off
Xiao Song finished his work, then turned his head to look out the window at the two people and one cat, smiling.
"Brother Ying, Little Golden Cat just stood up on its own, even though it was only for two seconds, but things are looking up."
Nothing was more gratifying than seeing the rewards of one's efforts.
With Jinya there, he couldn't go in to see Golden Cat. Thrilled, Chen Ying hugged Jinya close to the glass.
"Jinya, that's Golden Cat's little brother, it's very strong, just like you were at the start, enduring such severe injuries but still determined to survive."
Jinya might not have understood fully, but it could sense the joyful emotions of the two familiar humans beside it.
Gazing through its big beautiful eyes at the tiny figure inside the ICU, Jinya tapped the glass gently.
"Awoo, don't worry, I'll help take care of it."
Different species doesn't matter, we're all cats, and when we close our eyes, we all end up buried in the same ground.
Chen Ying vigorously rubbed his chin against Jinya's cheek, and was disdainfully pushed away by the big cat's paw. After a thought, Jinya went back to lick Chen Ying's chin.
Pfft, a mouthful of stubble!
Breakfast was had in the courtyard.
Little Sen's quarterly work summary was completed, and the burly men all breathed a sigh of relief, discussing today's forest patrol tasks over meals.
At the rescue station, beside Xiao Song who came to help, each person had a hefty workload.
"Brother Ying, today I went to clean Mendun's inside shelter and saw Mr. Lepus sleeping in the empty yard. How did he end up here?"
Duanmu tapped his bowl: "Apart from Mr. Lepus, there was also a Little lynx that looked underage, maybe Mr. Lepus's daughter?"
"What are you talking about, that's Mr. Lepus's girlfriend." Yin Li grinned, showing his teeth, "Out of the eight of us living in these two buildings, besides Uncle Zhao and Uncle Yi who are married with kids, all of us are damn lifelong singles. Mr. Lepus is showing off; be envious, you guys."
"Don't talk nonsense, Brother Li, I do have a boyfriend, though we're almost done. But still, it's incomparable to you guys."
Xiao Song smiled too, his eyes slightly sad when mentioning his soon-to-be-ex boyfriend, but he quickly masked it.
"What happened, your boyfriend doesn't like you working here?"
"Yeah, he wants me to quit my job and become a full-time housewife, which I don't agree with. I didn't study hard for over a decade to become a full-time housewife. Not that one less would matter, but what if some furry kid needs me, right?"
These words, the burly men dared not respond.
With a small appetite, Xiao Song finished eating and went to wash dishes, then headed to the emergency room to take care of Little Golden Cat.
Chen Ying glanced at Duanmu whose expression was dark, exchanged a covert look with Little Sen, and awkwardly changed the topic.
"Has Meng Yan's destination been arranged?"
"The report has been sent up; I saw in the group chat, it might be sent to Panda Valley for enclosure."
The environment there is pretty good, it says enclosure, but it's more like a semi-wild setting. Once Meng Yan is there, there'll be a sufficient population to meet its needs.
"The tricky one now is Mendun."
Little Sen pulled out his phone and opened a small group chat. It was a group for a few nursery workers responsible for caring for pandas, discussing daily how to better serve as daddy and nanny.
"Mendun has quite the air of Grandpa Gao who desperately wanted to stay put no matter what, doesn't like to move even if you let it out for activity, just wants to eat all day, I feel its weight has been rising a bit too fast lately. I've contacted the previous medical team, they said they will send someone to check on Mendun."
Hearing that, Chen Ying felt his temples throb.
Mendun'er didn't want to get in on any job positions, it just heard there were male bears elsewhere and wanted to find a boyfriend!
Honestly, if Mendun'er were a human, it would definitely be head-over-heels in love!
"Hey, Brother Ying, weren't you collecting name suggestions for Mendun'er before? What happened? Why do you guys still call it Mendun'er?"
Little Sen glanced at Chen Ying and chuckled under his breath, and even the usually moody Duanmu couldn't help but laugh.
"Cough, this generation of netizens is tough to please, 'Mendun'er' ranked highest. Some even said if 'Mendun'er' isn't nice, just call it 'Silly'…"
Ouch, netizens, you guys!
It's a good thing Mendun'er can't understand or hear this, or it would likely bark twice in anger.
Jinya rested her head on Chen Ying's foot, not understanding what these people were talking about, just wanting to snooze.
"Ah-Ying, are you just going to keep this Big Cat like this?"
"How could I? This isn't allowed," Chen Ying scratched Jinya's neck, "she has been sulking with her brother these past few days. She'll be returning to the forest soon. But Jinya's territory is not far from the Rescue Station, so she could come back anytime."
Now in summer, food is more abundant below the middle elevations, and they had to prepare for storing fat for the autumn and winter periods.
Here, located on the fringe of the highlands, winter comes early, and by October, you could see snowflakes drizzling. Places at higher altitudes might even get snow in September.
Mr. Lepus hadn't hurried off probably wanting Little Lynx to grow up fast.
Once winter came, the difficulty of obtaining food would increase. By then, training Little Lynx's hunting skills might be too late, possibly turning her into another predator's meal.
While eating, Little Sen scrolled through his phone, and just as he was about to put it down, he saw a message from a fan.
"Brother Ying, a fan is asking what you've been up to lately. You haven't posted any new videos for a long time, and even educational accounts haven't been updated."
These days have been genuinely busy, barely having time to pour food into my mouth, let alone manage social media accounts.
But since I started it, I must continue.
About the video, the clip from last night where Jinya got her tail bitten by Little Lynx is perfect.
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.
I'll leave the editing to Little Deng and Yin Li, making two versions, one for the Rescue Station's official account and another with a funny dubbed commentary for Little Deng's personal account to draw traffic.
We can make two educational posts, one about the reunion of a panda mother and child and one about Golden Cat.
Honestly, domestic knowledge about Felidae mainly focuses on lynxes, leopards, and rabbit cats. There's less understanding of Golden Cats, Forest Cats, and Desert Cats.
In our conservation area, confirmed large Felidae include Tiger (species not yet confirmed) and Leopard (Flower Leopard, Snow Leopard). The only two medium-sized Felidae we have are Lynx and Golden Cat.
The latter two are both at the Rescue Station and are perfect for a detailed educational episode.
After breakfast, everyone shared the duties of cleaning the kitchen, then started their day's work.
Golden Cat's treatment needed to continue. Now that it was definitely improving, the next focus was to adjust the acupuncture points, modify the steaming medicines, and especially the food intake, needing changes in the formula from the professor.
Seeing Chen Ying and that human woman busy, Jinya, feeling bored, took a round, sneaked a peek at her brother teaching Little Lynx to hunt for a while, then turned and headed into the forest.
I haven't seen that mother leopard for a long time, kind of missing her.
Well, with nothing else to do, why not take a stroll and see if the mother leopard has had a fight with her mate!
As Jinya breezed through the forest, in a deep gully on the hillside where the Rescue Station was located, a Black Bear emerged from the stream's pool, with a wildly wriggling big fish in its mouth.
(The last photo I posted of the House of Cats, some friends said they couldn't see it clearly. Today I saw another one; let's post it and see if it's still blurry.)
