I still remember the day I brought Xizi home. Its tiny body was huddled under the cabinet, like a shy little ball. Just stepping into this unfamiliar environment, it seemed extremely timid and only dared to secretly look around from the shadow of the cabinet. At that time, it was really so small that I could hold it in my palm with a gentle grip. I couldn’t help but pick it up gently. Its soft little body was in my hands, allowing me to “play with it at will”. It just stayed obediently, occasionally letting out a few faint meows, with a hint of unease and curiosity in its voice.
when I took out a new toy and waved it in front of it, Xizi’s eyes lit up instantly. Being less than two months old, it was full of interest in this novel thing. It approached cautiously and gently touched the toy with its small paws, each movement full of exploration. Soon, it started chasing the toy boldly, and its small figure ran around the room, full of vitality. When it got tired, it would run to the bed and become a little obedient one. I stroked it gently, and it squinted its eyes comfortably, gradually falling asleep under my touch every day. Its appearance was really adorable and melted my heart.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Xizi is almost three months old. At this stage, it has changed a lot. Its originally small body has become long and slender, no longer the weak little one it used to be. However, with the growth of its body, it has also become more and more naughty. It has started to bite hands crazily. As soon as my hand gets close to it, it will pounce on it quickly like it has discovered prey, gently gnawing with its not – yet – sharp little teeth. Although I know it doesn’t really want to hurt me and is just out of its playful nature, sometimes that sudden bite still makes me couldn’t help but exclaim “ouch”.
It also has a unique habit of liking to sit on my slippers. Every time I just take off my slippers, it will, as if it has found its exclusive throne, sit on it with a plop. Sometimes, it will even lie down comfortably, regarding the slipper as its little nest. When I sit on the sofa watching a movie, it won’t be idle either. It will jump onto the sofa and lie quietly beside me, with its eyes fixed on the TV screen, as if it is also enjoying the movie with me. Its focused little appearance seems as if it can really understand the pictures on the screen.
When it comes to Xizi’s special skills, drilling holes definitely counts. It is like a master of drilling holes. Any small gap or hole at home is an attractive adventure land for it. Whether it is the gap under the chair or the narrow space between the cabinet and the wall, it can easily drill in. Watching its small body nimbly shuttle through various gaps, I am often amazed at its flexibility.
At 00:36, it was another surprising moment. I found that Xizi had actually learned to jump onto the washbasin. It first wandered around under the washbasin for a while, then took a few steps back, suddenly exerted force, and with a leap, landed steadily on the washbasin. Standing on the washbasin, it held its head high proudly, as if showing me its newly learned skill. Since then, the washbasin has also become a place it often visits. Sometimes it will lie on it in a daze, and sometimes it will curiously fiddle with the faucet.
In Xizi’s life, there is also a special partner – Huahua. Huahua is also a lovely cat. When the two of them are together, there is always full of joy. They will chase and play with each other and share toys with each other. Sometimes, they will snuggle up together to sleep, and their intimate appearance makes people feel warm inside.
The arrival of Xizi has brought countless joys and surprises to my life. Watching it grow from a timid little cat to a lively and naughty “little adult”, I am filled with emotion. Every moment of its growth is deeply imprinted in my heart and has become the most beautiful memory in my life.
