How many days can a person last in a small, dark room without food and water? Personally, I feel that people with poor psychological quality may collapse in less than a day; people with stronger tolerance can only last about 7 days without eating or drinking.
The situation I mentioned above is what a kitten less than two months old is experiencing.
Cats meowing in the express box
At a delivery station in a town in Shangqiu City, Henan Province, cats meowing often came out of nowhere. At first, everyone didn't pay attention, thinking it was the meowing of stray cats in the neighborhood. However, a young lady who came to pick up the express realized that the meowing seemed to come from inside the express station.
The young lady followed the sound and found a box full of holes, and the faint meowing sounds came from inside this box.
Through the small hole, the young lady saw a dying kitten lying in the box. After realizing that someone had discovered him, the little guy braced himself, tried his best to get close to the young lady, and rubbed his head against her hand through the box.
Kitten: Good Samaritan, I am so tired and hungry, please save me!
This cat’s head is no bigger than my fist. It is obviously a small milk cat. The lady also noticed that except for this kitten, there was no food and water in the box. What did the little guy rely on to survive all this way?
Seeing this situation, the young lady was both distressed and angry. Live express delivery is illegal in the first place, so why are some people still using express delivery to send cats? Still such a small cat!
The kitten was trapped in the box without water or food for several days. The first priority was to get the kitten out of the box. The lady quickly notified the staff at the express delivery station, but they said they were helpless.
In fact, they had notified the buyer long ago, but the buyer never showed up. Li opened the customer's express delivery without authorization, which is an illegal operation. If complained, he may face fines or even compensation, so no one dares to take this risk.
Looking at the angry little kitten in the express box, the young lady’s heart almost broke. She fed the little guy some ham sausage through the hole, but the hole was too small to put water in.
We don’t want this cat anymore
If the recipient never comes to pick up the express delivery, the cat will not be able to get out of the box. The lady is very confused. Since the recipient paid for the cat, why doesn’t he even take a look?
The young lady contacted the person who bought the cat. However, the other party directly said, "We don't want this cat anymore." And what he said next completely made the young lady's heart freeze.
It turned out that the child in the family clicked "buy now, pay later" on a certain shopping software while the adults were not paying attention. Although the cat only cost more than 100 yuan, it was not a small sum for their family.
And the buyer said that he already had two cats at home and it was impossible to keep another cat. He didn't spend any money in the first place, so he would not go to the express delivery station to pick up the cat and directly chose to refuse it.
When the staff told the buyer that if he refused to accept the kitten and return it, the kitten would probably die on the road, the buyer nonchalantly said that the death of the cat had nothing to do with him, and that he would not buy the cat no matter what.
Rejected express delivery will have to be kept at the express delivery station for three days before it can be returned, and it will take three or four days to return to the place of delivery. This means that the kitten will have to stay in this cramped cardboard box for at least a week.
Can the already weak kitten survive after experiencing the torture of such a long journey? Is more than a hundred dollars really less important than a life?
She appeared before the kitten was about to go to the cat star.
The staff at the courier station told the girl that the best way at present is to communicate with the buyer and spend money to buy the cat. If she really chooses to return it, the little guy will basically be in trouble.
With the constant persuasion of the young lady, the buyer finally agreed to this method. When she found the kitten, the young lady posted its condition online, which happened to be seen by another young lady from out of town. After the other party learned about the cat's condition, she chose to pay for the kitten's life out of her own pocket.
The cat who has been trapped in the box for many days can finally break out of the cage and see the light of day again! The little sister put the prepared chicken breast in front of the little guy. The furry kid was really hungry and ate it hungrily.
A small plate of chicken breast was eaten quickly. Perhaps because he ate too quickly, the little guy started vomiting and his appetite suddenly became bad. However, because the girl lives in the countryside, there is no pet hospital.
She originally planned to take the furry child to the pet hospital in the town the next day. Unexpectedly, the little one started to eat actively in the morning. She had to admit that the vitality of the garden cat was really strong.
With sufficient food and water, the kitten's mental state began to slowly improve. After a few days, it returned to its natural state and became lively and active. The cat's favorite thing every day is to follow the little sister and become her little follower.
Because the young lady was in the third trimester of pregnancy, she did not have much time and energy to take care of the kitten, but she quickly helped the kitten find a suitable home. The other party was a cat lover with many years of experience in raising cats, and the kitten would be very happy if she followed her.
I still remember the "Pet Blind Box" incident a few years ago. I didn't expect that live pet express delivery still exists so far. I don't know how many furry children's lives have disappeared in this narrow and dark box.
As the saying goes, there is no harm without buying and selling. I hope you will not buy pets on e-commerce platforms. Even if you do, please choose legal pet shipping.
In fact, it is very simple to get a cat. You can go to a regular cattery to buy a pet cat, or you can "adopt instead of buying" to give homeless little strays a chance to have a home.
