侯硐的貓 -1;Cats in HouTong - Part 1

週末的時候,我們去侯硐站拜訪貓咪。
Before I visited Sugar, Chaplin and Rain, me and Fiona went to a very small town called HouTong.
我們搭一大早的區間車,七點半以前到了侯硐。清晨安安靜靜的,侯硐好像沒有人住一樣,寒流的週末,在冷清的小站裡頭,整個車站就只有一位站務人員,身兼賣票、剪票等等人員。我們原本以為沒辦法看到很多貓,因為很冷。
We heard that HouTong has many cats, avoiding the tourists, we took 06:25am's train to HouTong, and been there at 07:25am. It was a very chilly morning, we thought we can't see any cats, because there are only few house there and very cold.
結果,我們看到了一兩隻貓咪,在山上小房子的門口,立刻,就拿出我們帶的罐頭,貓咪就過來了。
But, after we climbed upstairs, we saw 2 cats in front of the old house, and immediately, we took out the can that we brought for them, and the cats rush around us.
小朋友好識貨,一隻兩隻、三隻四隻,通通都過來了。
These kids understood good food, one and two and three and four, everyone is coming!
從山上來、從階梯來、從地下來,從隔壁來。
From the hill, from the stairs from the neighborhood, everyone is coming.
我也不知道有幾隻,但是我看到他們我好開心,這是我有生以來第一次,在一個區域同時看到這麼多隻戶外的貓。
I lost count, but I was so happy seeing them, this is my very first time see that many cats at the same area.
多吃一點多吃一點啊~!
Eat more, baby~!
因為我們帶的罐頭很少,於是慢慢拿出他們家存放林雨糖不吃的乾乾。瞬間,貓又忽然從四面八方過來了。
Because we only bring few can, so Fiona took out the cat cookies and I took out the temptations, suddenly cats become more and more coming from everywhere.
慢慢忽然成為大明星。
See? Fiona is a big star.
嘩啦嘩啦嘩啦,貓咪都衝過來吃了,哇~~~
So so many kitties~!

大家都吃得好開心,越來越多種花色出現了。
Everyone ate so happily and more and more color fur appeared.
別急別急,很多呢。
There are plenty of food, slow down.
慢慢走到住戶人家門口放碗的地方,嘩啦嘩啦把乾乾到進去,哇~~ 又有更多貓咪跑過來了。
We walked in front of the house place the food in the bowl that local people places, and the cats immediately came eating.
我看了內心又感動、又感傷,真是很難形容這種感覺。他們是如此的珍惜所有的食物,能吃多少就吃多少。
I felt happy and sad at the same time, it's so difficult to describe the feeling. They are so so different from the cats I have, they are eating as many as they could.
這裡面有一隻黑白貓,非常非常的撒嬌,很親密蹭個不停。她一直蹭蹭我的腿。
There was a black and white cats rubbing and rubbing my leg, very very dariling.
又蹭蹭慢慢的腿,這麼一蹭,就覺得,來這邊真是來對了。她這是代表侯硐的貓咪,來歡迎我們的。
And she rub and rub Fiona's legs, too. I think she was representing cats in HouTong welcome us.
由於大家都還在努力的吃,所以還不太適合幫他們拍藝術照,先給他們吃飽一點,吃飽後,再來拍寫真集吧。
Because everyone is still eating, so, I guess I will photo them after eating. Now I just let them eat first.

Gemini and Ichiro said...

What lovely cats. They look so healthy. Is anyone else taking care of them or are there so many kind hearted people to keep them well fed?

戶外的貓貓生活很不容易,尤其在侯硐,
因為侯硐的冬天很冷、很潮濕,
祝福這些貓貓,每個都能順利的度過這個冬天。

Oh wow! What an experience we was getting a little excited sitting here following you along!
I know your feeling, we felt it too, do they know the hugs and love that we do? But they look healthy and are prolly happy in their own way :))
What a cool little town!

好純樸的地方
雖然並沒有很多吃的
但至少是很安全的

看這些孩子們...真是...很餓....

Luna und Luzie said...

There are so many! We were relieved to see that they do look like they eat regularly. We don't suppose any of them are neutered?

好壯觀的餵食秀啊!!!

The Activist said...

So many kitties! i do hope the govt gets them neutered since they seem like street cats.

Stray cats aren't treated well in Nigeria so they hide all the time.

And they are so cute!

Gattina said...

So many kitties! You were good to help take care of them.

Sunny's Mommy said...

They look well fed. But I always feel sad when I see cats that don't have forever homes and have to live outside.

LZ said...

They are all so cute!! I bet she wanted to take them all hope Adan. That would have most likely been worse than Lego biting you.

Oh Michico, how beautiful! You and Fiona were Angels for those wonderful kitties. How I wish I could have gone with you! But, I probably would have cried and tried picking up a lot of them. Poor kitties! They are all so pretty. I wish they could all have happy forever homes like our kitties. I am happy there are sweet and kind people like you and Fiona that care.
Lots of Hugs and Smoochies,
Lorianna
