This is a true story.
Sesame Paste was originally a kitten born and raised in Canada.
More than four years ago, the young sesame paste was lucky enough to be the pet of his niece studying in Canada.
Maybe the cat's fluffy cuteness made the little owner have some associations, so he called him sesame paste. Z1z
Sesame Paste has since become a close friend of Yangyang, who accompanied her to study in a foreign country.
The cat is smart and cute.
every morning at about 6:30 in the morning, he would jump onto Yangyang’s bed, gently pat the little master’s face with his furry paws, and arouse her to go to bed for school; when he noticed that the master was out, the sesame paste would quietly leave some dry food. Don’t eat them until the next time someone feeds them; if you travel far away, please take care of your roommates.
always loves sesame paste, and often praises it in front of us, claiming that sesame paste is the cutest cat in the world, and also teaches sesame paste to call her mother "grandmother" in the video.
In November last year, Yang Yang applied to a company in Shanghai and planned to return home with sesame paste.
The preparations for various vaccinations, identity verification (chip number inserted), etc. required for entry into the country have been prepared, but the cat’s rabies vaccine serum test results have not been reported back from the U.S. testing agency for a long time. Before leaving, Yangyang had to entrust roommates to take care of it. The sesame paste is half a year, and I will try to pick it up later.
In this way, with perseverance, Yang Yang bid farewell to her beloved sesame paste and flew to Shanghai. After the work of
was basically completed, Yang Yang began to ponder the matter of picking up the sesame paste to Shanghai: please go back to the country to pick up the sesame paste, fly to Canada to pick it up by yourself, find an intermediary for consignment...Various plans are being considered.
However, no one expected that at the end of the year, the new crown epidemic broke out and came quickly, followed by closure, isolation, and flight restrictions, and people's lives were all disrupted.
sesame paste was helplessly blocked on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.
Yangyang can only understand the kitten’s diet and daily life through trans-ocean videos, and soothes the sesame paste across the screen.
finally got through to June 2020. Unexpectedly, the roommate who looked after the sesame paste could no longer take care of the cat for some reason. In desperation, Yang Yang sought the advice of his parents and asked his friends to send the cat to the pet shop for foster care, paying 50 Canadian dollars a day.
lived in a pet shop for more than a month, and the sesame paste was finally delivered by an intermediary agency on a flight from Montreal to Hong Kong on August 12, 2020 (the epidemic was severe at the time, and many airlines stopped consigning pets, many Customs also refuses to enter the pets), stop via Hong Kong and then fly to Shanghai.
We all think that, like a passenger transit flight, landing in Hong Kong and then transfer will be done.
Yang Yang, who is in Shanghai, has changed a bed to welcome the little cat who has been away for a long time.
However, no one thought that this stoppage actually took about two months!
's long and arduous journey to find relatives began.
On August 13th, when Sesame's flight was about to land in Hong Kong, the four sisters who were on vacation with us suddenly received a call from Hong Kong’s intermediary responsible for consigning pets, telling Miao Mi to not be able to transfer to Shanghai immediately, and to stay in Hong Kong before waiting for an opportunity to clear customs. To Shenzhen, from Shenzhen to Shanghai, it is emphasized that unless customs clearance is through extraordinary channels, 100% security cannot be guaranteed. Ideally, a person should bring a cat to pass the customs.
Suddenly, the sesame paste was already flying in the air. What should I do? If
stays in Hong Kong, who will take care of it? My daughter left Hong Kong early and is still in concentrated isolation in Shenzhen; not to mention the extra fees charged by the intermediary for the boarding pet shop. After all, the cat drifts and has no destination, but there is no choice for a while.
So, Zaoer began to visit colleagues, classmates, and friends in Hong Kong, looking for people willing to raise cats for them, and even frequently advertised in Moments, but to no avail.
Soon, a special WeChat group was established to help Sesame Go home. The
brothers and sisters were also mobilized. My nephew in California, USA, also actively contacted classmates in Hong Kong, asking if we can provide temporary support; Tencent’s niece also asked for information about friends traveling between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. I also tried to find out No chance.
is naturally the most anxious mother and daughter, especially Yang Yang misses the cat day and night, worrying about sleep and eating.
Sesame Paste in Hong Kong every dayBecome the main content of communication in the group.
Finally, one day in late August, the cousin brought good news. His son Peter is going to work in Hong Kong recently and is willing to carry sesame paste.
There was finally a ray of sunshine in the clouded sky.
In anticipation, Peter returned to Hong Kong smoothly, and smoothly received the sesame paste from the pet shop, and only after the expiration of the home quarantine period, he took the cat through Shenzhen.
Peter loves cats, and sesame paste also likes Peter. Everyone, especially Yangyang and her mother, felt very relieved to watch the videos of pets and cats playing every day.
But the good times are not long.
I don't know if it was due to a long-distance flight, a reverse jet lag, and staying in a foreign country for a long time. I didn't see the owner for a long time. Suddenly, the sesame paste suddenly became ill and soon became unstable.
Peter, who was extremely anxious, reported the situation in time, and Yangyang's mother and daughter decided to go to the hospital immediately. Z1z
searched on Zaoer.com and contacted a professional pet hospital in Hong Kong with good conditions. However, Peter is not allowed to go out without authorization while quarantining at home. In a hurry, Peter had to ask his father to send the cat to the hospital. The conclusion of
hospital is: stress-responsive refusal to eat leads to fatty liver and organ failure. The service of
hospital matches the high price. Infusions are given every day, and the nurses are also gentle. They also transfer cat videos every day to let Yangyang in Shanghai and the “grandma cat” in Chengdu understand the progress of the treatment.
However, the cat is depressed and in a state of lack of energy. When she is so sensitive that the situation is not good, everyone is also anxious and worried, especially the mother and daughter of the "grandma cat" wishing to fly to Hong Kong to pick up the cat right away.
is obstructed by the epidemic, visas are suspended, and ports are closed. Even if they can go, the 28-day quarantine is too long. Everyone can only hope for the cat’s good luck in anxiousness. The grandmother cat is well aware of the weight of sesame paste in her daughter's mind, but it is really stressful to "contribute" thousands of yuan to the pet hospital every day.
Everyone is looking forward to leaving the hospital with Sesame Paste as soon as possible, and I pray that we will not miss the opportunity of BitT to leave Hong Kong and return to Shenzhen.
However, whatever you are afraid of.
Just two days before Bit was about to leave Hong Kong, the hospital received bad news that the cat was critically ill, and informed that he had been admitted to the intensive care unit and was breathing through intubation. The sesame paste in the
video is stuck in the tube, hanging drips, and looks painful. The nurse
waits 24 hours a day, and keeps comforting, "The master did not abandon you, it was the new crown epidemic that prevented her from coming to see you..." The attitude of
medical staff is excellent, but the price is also top-notch. The prices of ICUs in mainland hospitals are so high, not to mention Hong Kong, looking at the daily expenses that are deducted, it is really heart-pounding.
Sesame paste has cost tens of thousands from a pet shop in Canada to a pet shop in Hong Kong and then to a hospital. However, the Shenzhen-Hong Kong customs clearance is too late. How much will it cost? Yang Yang, who just joined the job, can't afford it, but she can't bear to give up.
Sister Xiaoyu joked that "others take a loan for the house, and you, take a cat loan."
Sure enough, Yang Yang really asked his mother for a cat rescue loan.
We didn't say anything, we were thinking "Should you give up?" In the end, even the cat doctor put forward the suggestion of "If the cat is too painful, let him be happy."
Yangyang is entangled in pain, and the fourth sister is also entangled, we have made the worst psychological preparation. The fourth sister of
said to me boredly: "They all say that cats have nine lives, why can't sesame paste?"
may be moved by the perseverance of relatives, or perhaps determined to see the young master, the tenacious sesame paste is true Opened his second life channel. The
sesame paste in the intensive care unit came to the news that the condition was stable, and the doctor said that just try to get off the ventilator and stay steady.
was stabilized by the spontaneously breathing sesame paste, but he was still weak, and the day of Bit’s departure from Hong Kong was closer. Whether the
sesame paste can be discharged from the hospital and pass the customs smoothly with Bit has become an issue of concern to everyone. The cat doctor said that the sesame paste is very weak and should not be discharged from the hospital and should be treated for a period of time.
However, everyone knows how long they will stay in Hong Kong once they miss the opportunity to return to Shenzhen.
On the day Peter left Hong Kong, Yang Yang finally decided to let the cat go to Shenzhen to continue the treatment and then to Shanghai by himself.
Doctors in Hong Kong insist that cats need to be treated with infusion in a professional hospital. They are happy to contact the best pet hospital in Shanghai, but strongTuning cats can no longer be consigned to toss by plane. What about
? The fourth sister of
showed her valiant courage and decided to fly to Shenzhen to help her daughter take care of the cat, and then personally drove Xiaoyu's niece to Shanghai. The daughter and son-in-law of
, who are already away, left Shenzhen’s house key in advance for Yangyang’s mother and daughter.
Yangyang arrived in Shenzhen first and found a pet hospital.
However, the four sisters' decision to drive thousands of miles to send the cat to the cat aroused family concerns: over half a hundred years old, she drove long distances alone, with her daughter and sick cat! The
family members urged him to be cautious and avoid taking risks.
However, the fourth sister has made up his mind, saying that it is okay to drive slowly.
all understand that this is the most heartwarming help and comfort a mother can give her daughter.
In fact, we are still secretly worried that Sesame and Yangyang will be the last to meet in Shenzhen. Perhaps for this reason, "Grandma Cat" has to do her best.
Finally, Yang Yang successfully took the sesame paste from Pete.
Sesame Paste and Yangyang, separated for nearly a year, finally meet in Shenzhen.
Sesame Paste still remembers his master, opened his eyes and looked at it from time to time, and his mood became calmer. The sesame paste that
died once was much thinner than before, and the scars on the bare legs of the fading infusion were obvious.
Perhaps the memory of the intensive care unit is too painful. When stepping into the hospital again, no matter if it is the expert cat professor or the nurse, Sesame Paste will not cooperate. The plan of
to continue medical treatment is obviously difficult to advance, what should be done? The retired "grandma cat" of Dr.
volunteered to say to her daughter: "I can prescribe treatment for patients, why don't cats try it? It is nothing more than anti-inflammatory, infection control, physical fitness, but the dosage of medication should be specially controlled."
So, the four sisters tried to change and feed the cat by herself. With the companionship, the cat was no longer so irritable and confrontational.
The companionship and medical care of relatives gave the spirit of sesame, his condition was not only controlled but also getting better.
All the hearts hanging over the cat’s life and death are finally laid down!
On September 25, "Grandma Cat" carried Yangyang and sesame paste on the expressway from Shenzhen to Shanghai. On the way to
, I went to the phone to inquire and learned that Sesame Paste was asleep all the way and nothing happened.
More than 1,500 kilometers, they only rested overnight in Fuzhou.
On September 26, 2020, on an unforgettable day, the cat from Canada, Sesame Paste, went through a long and painful 53 days and finally returned to the home where his owner placed him in Shanghai.
Now, Yangyang and Sesame Paste have restarted their Canadian lifestyle in Shanghai, but the cat is still recovering, and Yangyang has to repay the cat every month, but she has no regrets.
Alas, I hope that all cats and people who are in trouble or crisis due to the epidemic can clear the clouds and welcome the sun.
