Cats, ranging from tigers and lions to small cats and lynxes, have always been the top predators on land, even domestic cats that are sucked to death by countless people.
Stray cats that reproduce without control are often called ecological disasters because they will indiscriminately hunt all small animals that can prey, even if they are not hungry.
Cats kept at home will also bring small gifts such as dead mice, dead cockroaches, and dead geckos to their owners.
Cats in a free-range state, if they are bored, it is not uncommon to catch butterflies, but generally speaking, butterflies, small insects that have little meat and may be poisonous, are generally not among their hunting options.
Butterflies are usually not poisonous, but if the plant fluid they feed on is poisonous, they are also contaminated with the corresponding poison.
When the black and white kitten rushed towards him suddenly, Zhang Zian thought he was the target, but when he took a closer look, he realized that its target was those butterflies.
To be reasonable, those butterflies are very beautiful, and the scales of their wings are colorful in the sun. It would be a pity if they were culled. After all, everyone has a desire for beauty. This is a world that depends on faces. Moth, then he probably wouldn't think so.
The butterflies sensed the approach of the natural enemy, and flew around with their wings fluttering. Some flew around the trees, some flew into the stems and leaves of plants to hide, and some flew high. Anyway, none of them stayed and waited to die.
Anyone who has caught butterflies with their own hands has the experience. Butterflies seem to fly slowly, but catching them is not as easy as imagined, because their wings are too big, and they can't catch them if they move slowly. The wind may blow the butterfly away, of course the use of the insect net to catch the butterfly does not count.
These butterflies are of different colors and seem to be of different species.
Generally speaking, butterflies with darker, grayer, browner wings and other low-key colors tend to be smaller in size, faster and more flexible in flight, because they have no other means of life-saving.
If it is a butterfly with brightly colored wings that can be seen at a glance from a long distance, it will often use complex colors to confuse the enemy, and even disguise a pair of fierce big eyes on the wings to intimidate the enemy... Although this method is harmful to human beings It is not very useful, after all, humans have not included butterflies in their diet, but it is still very useful for birds or other creatures.
Their flight trajectories are irregular at all, up and down, left and right, in this way to distract the enemy's mind, making the enemy dazzled, not knowing which one to catch.
But the black and white kitten didn't seem to be affected too much. After rushing into the butterfly group, it suddenly waved its paw, bowing left and right like Li Yuanba. Pressing down, he pressed the lowest flying butterfly into the grass, flicked its tail again, and whipped the other butterfly that was trying to hide behind it and turned around several times in the air. The movement was very skillful, as if Like doing this.
If it weren't for the size restriction, it would be like a little tiger.
When the butterflies saw the enemy approaching menacingly, they immediately changed their strategies and flew to high places, planning to avoid the sharp edge temporarily. No matter how powerful you are, you don't have wings, right
Unexpectedly, this kitten can also make reasonable use of the terrain. It swished up a small tree, climbed halfway and then crossed to the nearby roof. It ran faster, and rose into the air on the edge of the roof, stretching its body and claws out. , Accurately buckle a butterfly, and then roll forward and fall into the grass nest.
When it popped up again, there were still a few blades of grass on its head.
"sharp!"
Zhang Zian watched it interestingly, and it could even be said that his eyes were wide open. I have never seen a cat that is so good at catching butterflies.
The kitten shook its head, shook off the blade of grass, and suddenly jumped to the side without warning. Before that, there was a dead leaf butterfly disguised as a dead leaf. No matter how noisy the other butterflies were, they didn't move, not even Zhang Zian. Recognized, unexpectedly was discovered by this kitten.
The dead leaf butterfly was pressed between the bottom of the claw and the grass by it.
Zhang Zian didn't know if it was hungry and wanted to eat the butterfly or it was just playing with it. If it was the former, it would definitely send the butterfly into its mouth; if it was the latter, it would probably let it go again.
Cats are actually not suitable for eating butterflies, which may cause diarrhea, so he wants to stop it from putting butterflies in its mouth.
However, it raised its claws, which seems to be the latter option.
Zhang Zian was shocked to see an incredible scene. After it moved its claws, there were no thrashing butterflies or crushed corpses at the bottom of the claws, but a little light floated from the bottom of its claws in the wind, like fireflies in the dark. The light slowly faded into the air, and finally disappeared.
He rubbed his eyes.
hell!
"Just now... what happened? My eyes are blurred?"
"Meow~"
The kitten chased other butterflies non-stop.
Zhang Zian walked to the place where the dead leaf butterfly was just now, and used the toe of his shoe to paw in the grass a few times, but he did not find the body. Of course, the body may have been stained on the pad of the cat's claw, and the light spots he saw may be … reflections from the windows of surrounding occupants.
In fact, there is another possibility, that is, there is a real problem with his cognitive ability.
The butterflies had no ability to resist, and were driven away by the kittens to escape from the green field.
Only then did the kitten trot back and roll contentedly on the lawn.
"You just...how did you..."
Just as Zhang Zian was about to ask, his vision suddenly seemed to tremble, and the world briefly appeared double, but soon returned to normal.
At the same time, something deep in his heart seemed to be working hard to get out of the cracks in the rock. Before that, the rock was perfect, but now there were tiny cracks, and the suppressing power was loosened.
"Did I miss something?" He tried to think hard, and sorted out his thoughts by muttering to himself, "In the Wuyin teahouse and library... Should I go back and look?"
"Meow~"
Kitten shook his head.
Zhang Zian was stunned again, "You were shaking your head just now?"
Is it a coincidence
It's just a kitten, how could it understand what he said and respond to it? Besides, that was all before it appeared, so it couldn't possibly know.
"Can you understand me?" he tried again.
"Meow~" it nodded.
actually nodded again...
In order to confirm that it was not a coincidence and to avoid misunderstanding, he said: "If you can understand, raise your right front paw..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't help laughing. How could the kitten distinguish between left and right
As a result, it literally raised its right front paw.
Zhang Zian twisted his face, it hurt a lot, it seemed that he was not dreaming, this kitten could really understand what he said.
