Being held down and beaten by several of his brothers and sisters, he had no power to fight back. I think if you raise an adult or half-year-old wild cat in the countryside, you can still live well by feeding it leftovers. After all, it has passed the first and most stringent screening of the natural environment. But if you spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to buy a cat whose main function is companionship, it is better to raise it carefully. This is not a vanity comparison, it is a fact.
Flowers grown in greenhouses are not as strong as flowers in the wild. Besides, the flowers bought for so much money must be unhealthy. Of course, raising cats should be done according to one's ability. The total monthly expenses for our three cats is around 5k, which is probably more than some people. However, this expense is acceptable to us (my wife and I). It is only a small part of our living expenses. Even if it is doubled, it will not affect our quality of life. What is the problem?
The real problem is that if you don’t have enough money, you still raise cats like we do. The real problem is that people whose monthly income is not as high as our cats can’t imagine that there are so-called animals in the world that are better than them. The real problem is that some people don’t realize that people in this world are divided into three levels. In the eyes of the upper class (not referring to us), money that is not considered money at all is used for their livelihood.
The real problem lies in the unwillingness of some noble people to believe that pets like cats and dogs are part of the family in some people's world. This may be due to short-sightedness or lack of imagination. I usually like to raise cats and suck cats on Zhihu. But now it is obvious to see various marketing accounts deliberately creating a chain of discrimination against cats. Those who keep foreign cats look down on catteries, and those who keep catteries look down on those who keep local cats. From cat breeds to cat food, it’s all a chain of discrimination.
