A distressing incident occurred in Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province on the 6th. A 13-year-old boy was arrested in Shanghai by his parents and lived alone for 66 days. During this period, he not only had to take care of himself, but also took care of the pet cats and dogs at home. When the mother, the woman surnamed Zhu, returned home, she saw her son. He and his pet are doing well, and he is very pleased with his son’s growth.
