Chapter 690 Genetic Screening

As soon as the price was mentioned, Tang Yuyun's attention was immediately shifted from the soft and cute punishment cat. She knew that cats of all breeds were not cheap, as long as they had a pedigree certificate, they could cost tens of thousands, especially since she heard that this store could teach kittens to dance, and the price was more expensive than other stores.

She was relatively rich, but after all, she was not a rich second generation, and she didn't want to waste money, so she preset a price in her heart, and just waited for Zhang Zian to say his price.

Zhang Zian introduced: "The price of that criminal cat is 30,000. Is it acceptable to bring the pedigree certificate, immunization certificate and DNA screening certificate?"

"30,000?" Tang Yuyun put on his coat, and paused slightly, "It's kind of expensive, can you buy a puppet cat at this price? And it's a good-looking puppet cat."

To be honest, the price somewhat exceeded her psychological expectations, and she planned to spend up to 25,000.

"That's right, if you want to buy Ragdoll cats, we also have them in this store, but Abyssinian cats are completely different from Ragdoll cats, and their personalities are very different. In my opinion, the two cats are not comparable."

It was not unexpected that she thought it was expensive, but Zhang Zian tried his best to explain to her, showing that the money was worth the money.

This is the case with cat gambling. A pet-grade Abyssinian cat really costs less than 30,000 yuan. A chocolate-colored race cat costs more than 30,000 yuan. If it is sold at a lower price, he will lose money.

He told her the risks and benefits frankly, if she planned to wait for the torture cats to grow up before picking them, that was fine too, after all, if you keep them at home, there is no need to keep competition-grade ones, pet-grade ones are enough.

"Uh, what is DNA screening? It sounds very high-end." After hearing this, Tang Yuyun didn't rush to make a decision, but planned to ask clearly before talking. Some of the pet shops and cattery she had been to before did not mention this matter.

"It's hard to tell just by talking about it. Why don't you take a look with me? Seeing is believing, isn't it?" Zhang Zian led the way, and the two entered the pet shop one after the other.

Tang Yuyun took a look around the store, and her eyes fell on the puppet kittens near the deck chairs. They were playing and throwing each other down and rolling, like a few balls of wool. The powerful attraction even made her mind slightly shaken after she had made up her mind.

"Cluck!" She heard a few strange calls, followed the sound, and saw a few adult Abyssinian cats sitting on the cat climbing frame like elves in the jungle, staring at the cat with their big pale green eyes. she. After staring at her for a while, they seemed to have lost interest in her. They chased each other and danced on the cat climbing frame. They play unknowingly, and there seems to be infinite vitality in their bodies.

Nothing could be more stark than this contrast.

The difference between the Ragdoll cat and the Abyssinian cat is clear at a glance. The former is more like a domestic cat in the conventional sense, while the latter is full of wild beauty. For example, the former is more like a delicate lady, while the latter is like a female high jump athlete who can participate in the Olympics. There is really no comparison, and it doesn't matter which one is more beautiful, it just depends on which one you like.

"That one is the father of those punishment cats just now." Zhang Zian asked her to sit down, pointing to one of them for her to see.

It was a very handsome male cat. He didn't participate in the chasing battle of other cats, and he was sitting alone on another cat climbing frame, which seemed outstanding.

From this cat, Tang Yuyun vaguely saw what the punishment cat would look like when it grew up. She took out her phone to take a picture, but the tom, who had been motionless before, immediately joined the other cats in the chase, moving so fast that her phone lens could barely keep up with it, let alone focus, due to the shutter speed The speed is not high enough, and the photos are all blurry.

After several attempts, she had to put down the phone regrettably.

Lu Yiyun brought relevant materials and asked her to look them over.

"Is this in English?" Tang Yuyun flipped through the documents in his hand,

Slightly frowned. She can read books in foreign languages ​​fluently, but there are too many technical terms in these documents.

Zhang Zian explained to her one by one: "Current cats can be roughly divided into two types. One is cats with relatively ancient bloodlines, such as Egyptian cats and Abyssinian cats, which existed thousands of years ago. One is the new breeds of cats that have emerged in recent years, such as puppet cats, fold-eared cats, etc.”

She nodded in understanding.

"This involves the issue of genetic diseases. Have you heard of the genetic layer of fold-eared cats?" He asked.

"I've heard a little bit that cats with folded ears are prone to rickets?" She recalled the relevant knowledge she had learned before, and said uncertainly.

"Basically." Zhang Zian continued to introduce, "Generally speaking, the older the cat breed, the more descended, with fewer genetic steps. After all, these cats have survived thousands of years ago, and if their genes are not stable, they would have been Extinct. And the more newly emerged cat breeds, the higher the possibility of carrying genetic shovels, because people often carry out inbreeding in order to strengthen and fix their appearance in the process of breeding them.”

He changed the subject, "Back to Abyssinian cats, this kind of cat is generally low-grade, but it may suffer from pyruvate kinase deficiency, which will lead to intermittent anemia once it occurs. ♀ is a genetic disease, It can be detected through genetic screening. The 11 criminal cats just now have all undergone genetic screening. The specific method is to collect samples of the lining of the mouth and then mail them to professional testing institutions abroad. The testing fee for each cat alone is dozens US dollars, plus the international courier fee will be even higher, after all, these are biological samples, and the courier fee is very expensive, so in order to reduce them, the tests that should be done still need to be done, and this money cannot be saved.”

"Oh." Tang Yuyun somewhat understood that there was a reason for the high price, not Zhang Zian's wild asking price.

"Has the test report come out?" She was very concerned about whether the torture cat just now was born, and whether it might suffer from a serious genetic disease.

"Not yet, the courier has just been sent out not long ago." Zhang Zian showed the stub of the international courier delivery, "I will notify you immediately after receiving the test results. If the punishment cat has a hidden danger, you can get a full refund , you can give you a discount if you insist on wanting it, and you will never deliberately conceal it, you can rest assured about this."

Tang Yuyun appreciates his open and honest attitude. For a pet that will accompany her for more than ten years, she is more inclined to spend more money to buy it for peace of mind. Besides, it is not easy to find a pet that has not been selected by others. If you miss this time , the next time I don't know when to wait, it will be to satisfy her obsessive-compulsive disorder.

In order to buy a cat, she spent a lot of energy, collected information everywhere, and inquired about the news extensively. Her nerves were always tense, and she was afraid of missing it. Such days were not pleasant, almost like buying a house to see a house. Once she makes up her mind, she can be freed from anxiety, and spend time and energy on work and recharging, and maybe she will be able to earn back the extra price difference soon, which can be regarded as her self-comfort.

After thinking about it, she quickly made a decision: "Okay, I bought it, and go through the formalities now. Don't sell that torture cat to others."

"Don't worry, Jiao, take her through the pre-sale procedures."

Zhang Zian was also very relieved when he heard the words. He glanced at Cathy's portrait, which showed her smiling brightly at the Abyssinian cats in the store. He kept reminding himself that neither these cats nor the money from selling them belonged to him, but to Cathy. He was just an escrow, helping the chocolate-colored Abyssinian cat to a more brilliant stage, Only in this way can she live up to the important task entrusted to her.

The money obtained from selling cats should be used in a more appropriate way.
