When I first laid my eyes on Bobo on Xianyu, I never thought that this little furball would bring so much joy and laughter into my life. For just 1000 yuan, I welcomed him into my home, and from that moment on, my world became a much more interesting place.
I named him Bobo, and he also has some cute nicknames like Bobo – san and Bobo – pig. I brought him home when he was just over a month old. He was so tiny and full of energy, exploring every corner of his new home with curiosity. As he grew, he encountered a few minor health issues. When he was around three months old, he suddenly vomited. I was really worried, but after fasting him for a day, he miraculously recovered on his own. In the autumn, he had diarrhea. Suspecting that his tummy got cold, I gave him montmorillonite powder, and within two days, he was back to normal.
During his first four months, Bobo was mainly fed kitten food. Occasionally, I would give him a packet of delicious cat treats to satisfy his taste buds. As he grew older, I transitioned him to adult cat food, often pairing it with some chicken breast. He has an absolute passion for yogurt. Whenever I mix chicken breast with yogurt, he starts meowing non – stop, showing his extreme excitement. He also loves chicken breast mixed with raw eggs, and his enthusiasm for this combination is truly endearing.
Thankfully, Bobo has been a relatively healthy cat. By the time he was seven months old, he already weighed nine pounds. Whenever my friends see him, they are always surprised by his size and often ask me how old he is. It’s quite amusing to tell them that he’s only seven months old.
Since he came home, Bobo has always been full of life. He adores playing with the cat teaser. He would jump and pounce on it with great enthusiasm, his little body moving nimbly. He also loves playing hide – and – seek. He would find the most unexpected places to hide, making it a fun challenge for me to find him. On hot days, he would stretch his body as long as he could, trying to cool off. He once mistook a pillow for something interesting and kept “studying” it.
When it comes to social interactions, Bobo can be quite the character. When I tried to introduce him to another cat for a potential “date”, he was extremely timid. He would cower in the corner, showing none of his usual bravado. But at home, he is a total sweetheart. He loves to cuddle and often clings to my legs, asking for attention. During the cold winter, we would sit together in front of the heater, enjoying the warmth. He even has a funny habit of looking at me as if he wants to “smoke” a cigarette, which always makes me laugh. And whenever there is a good spot, like the best place on the couch, he will make sure to claim it as his own, firmly establishing his “C – position”.
In short, Bobo has become an inseparable part of my life. He brings me joy every day, whether it’s his silly antics or his affectionate moments. I am so grateful to have found this little “cat – bug” on Xianyu, and I look forward to many more wonderful memories with him in the future.
