For business reasons, some cat cafes didn't feed their cats themselves and waited for the customers to do so for them . This gave the cats a better appetite and made the customers feel more satisfied . The cats in the snack bar were fed till they were about 80% full, and then ate the dried fish as snacks . They would stop eating after they were full . Zhang Zian was telling the girls the truth .
After having fun feeding the cats, it was also fun to start battles of intelligence against the smart and swift cats . The girls tried to lure the cats over with the dried fish and the cat toys, so they could hold them in the arms and play with them . But the cats always kept a safe distance, failing all of their attempts .
It was like playing with a claw crane . The girls stared at the cute dolls in the machine, trying to grab one by controlling the machine arm . When they almost succeed, the dolls fell back down . Unwilling to give up, they put in another coin and tried again until they won . Many girls ended up putting in a lot of money into the machine . Or at least their boyfriend's money .
After a quarter or so, the girls had barely touched their food . They spent the entire time playing with the cats .
Zhang Zian observed them carefully . He wasn't mesmerized by their beauty, but was only seeing if anyone was reacting unusually . Ever since Snowy and Vivi came in and did a live broadcast, he always paid special attention to customers with pet allergies, and also told Wang Qian, Li Kun, and Lu Yiyun to do the same .
He waved at Uncle Li, and they both headed into the kitchen . Fina and Snowy Lionet followed them .
"Uncle Li, you should make a sign and hang it by the entrance, where everybody can see . The sign should warn people who are allergic to cats to be careful, and to enter at their own risk," he said .
It was normal to find cats in a pet shop, but not in a restaurant . If a customer allergic to cats didn't notice the name and walked in without thinking, they could end up having severe allergic reactions . It would be a lot of trouble . They could get sued .
Uncle Li always followed reasonable advice, and nodded in return .
Some people liked cats and some didn't . Even some cat lovers might not like watching others play with cats while they were eating . Some customers might think it wasn't sanitary to keep cats in a restaurant . Deciding to be a cat fancier's restaurant meant saying goodbye to customers who weren't fond of cats . Zhang Zian explained this clearly to Uncle Li . iIt was impossible to make everybody happy at the same time .
While they were talking, Fina and Snowy Lionet were checking out the kitchen .
In the kitchen, there were a lot of shiny stainless steel appliances, stoves, fans, and utensils, all catching Fina's attention . It jumped onto the counter, and saw dough inside a stainless steel pot, giving off the sour smell of yeast .
Snowy Lionet also tried to jump up, but failed horribly . It couldn't jump half the height of a table with its poor motor skills . It tried to climb up the table legs by using its four short legs, but still couldn't do it .
Aunt Li collected the customer's dishes and headed back to the kitchen . She saw Fina curiously snooping around the rising dough, and noticed that its nose was almost touching it . Afraid of the dough getting ruined and delaying the food service to the customers, she wanted to take the dough pot away from it .
Fina lifted a paw and hit the dough, staring back at her unhappily .
Zhang Zian finished talking to Uncle Li . He realized that Fina had never seen rising dough before . The curiosity that cats were born with caused it to be deeply curious .
Uncle Li laughed and said, "It's fine . Let it play with it if it likes it . Don't we have plenty of flour?"
"I'm not trying to stop it from playing . It's a shame to throw away half-risen dough though," replied Aunt Li with pity . She hesitantly loosened her hands .
The dough was prepared in order to make hot pies . The Li's hot pies with pork and cabbage filling was a specialty . It had thin crust and a lot of filling, and exuded oil after each bite . They were delicious . The restaurant usually made them in large batches . The dough was heavy, weighing almost 1 . 5 kilos, and took up almost the entire pot .
Fina scratched some of the flour sticking to the pot wall with its claw, sniffed it with the nose, and found the yeast smell interesting . It jumped right into dough pot, leaving clear claw prints on the yellow tinted dough .
It was comfortable to step on dough as it was neither soft or hard . It was like stepping on sand that was wet from the ocean water . It also had a peculiar sour yeast smell that made it hungry .
After seeing the dough taken up by Fina, Aunt Li sighed and washed her hands . She took another new stainless steel dough pot, and added flour and yeast into it . Then, she poured water into it from a water jar in one hand and stirred with her other hand . She made dough every day and was very familiar with the process . She also knew the perfect ratio of flour and water . Soon, new dough gradually took shape in her hands . She put down the water jar, and made the dough neat and clean by flipping, pressing, and kneading with her strong hands .
"Aunt Li is a pro!" exclaimed Zhang Zian . Each time he tried making dough, it was a mess . He either added too much water or too little . He eventually gave up, and ended up buying dumplings and hot pies from other places .
"Heh . I'm no expert, I'm just messing around!" Aunt Li was a modest woman .
While she was kneading the dough, Fina watched her movements . As she moved with dexterity and rhythm, it couldn't help but imitate her, and kneaded the dough with its two front paws . It seemed to enjoy it .
Uncle Li pointed at Fina and chuckled . "Is this kneading? I've heard about it, but it's the first time I've seen it . "
Fina froze with big eyes . It yelled, "Kn—kneading? Nonsense! I'd never do such a childish thing!"
Kneading was typical cat behavior . It started when kittens would knead their mother's breasts to get more milk . Even after they were fully grown, many cats continued with the same behavior, and kneaded soft objects with their front paws . Sometimes they even sniffed with their noses or bit the object slightly while purring through their throats . Kneading was a reflex of pure enjoyment .
Zhang Zian didn't think Fina was kneading . It was merely imitating Aunt Li's kneading movements . Uncle Li had misinterpreted it .
"Meow meow meow? Your Majesty, whose breast are you kneading? Come knead mine!" Snowy Lionet was running around faster under the table .
Fina was still interested in the dough . But now, in order to prove its innocence, it grunted and jumped out of the dough pot, and scraped off the flour against the table . It intentionally looked away, and mumbled, "I'm telling you, I don't knead breasts . "
