Poverty is caused by cats - 1

After we spent time with Kuro, we can tell for sure that we can’t live with him in the same house.
Kuro originally wants be a pampered cat: he is a self-centred kind of cat.
However, the best cat for us in this house is Kyoku.
Kyoku had been hiding in the closet, the quantity of laundry I had to wash increased, and we were tired from not getting enough sleep.
Finally, we could remove the collar from Kuro after fourteen days. We wanted to get him fixed when we returned the collar, and called the vet with great enthusiasm.
“Could you give him the surgery on Sunday or Monday?”
“I don’t do it before he gets his shots.”
“After the vaccination, how many days before he can get fixed?”
“Well, it’s about two weeks.”
We thought we couldn’t stand it for another two weeks but it’s his rule.

On Sunday July 2nd, we took Kuro to get his shots and made an appointment for the surgery on the 14th. I heard we shouldn’t let him out for two weeks after the injection, but we don’t have the patience to live with him in the same house anymore. Give us back a quiet life!
When we released him in our front yard, Kuro soon did marking here and there, and was chasing after Icchan (female, already pregnant).
