It was really Pluto then I saw Pluto’s red eyes shine. I became scared and ran away from it. Pluto walked closer towards me. The cat looks so scary with the red eyes and blood non-stop flowed out from the cat’s eyes. Did Pluto cries? But why the tears turned to blood? ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- How far you could run in just a square room cell? Wherever I ran, Pluto still walked towards me and it getting closer. I gave up when I felt tired and stood still at the corner of the room. The cold wind blew in made me shivered in fright. Pluto walked closer towards me and rubbed his body at my legs. I thought Pluto wanted to claim what I did towards him. I felt touched with his actions. Pluto still knew his master and did his job to accompany me when I felt like being alone. Indeed I am alone without anyone in the room. How could I be cruel to him? Although I had killed him but he is still kind toward me? Picture 2 ------------------------------------------------- Then I thought of something.

...“Smelly cat, smelly cat, what are they feeding you? Smelly cat, smelly cat, it’s not your fault.” A wise woman named Phoebe Buffay once said this. Actually, she said it numerous of times throughout the television series, Friends. “How does this pertain to medicine?”, you might ask. Well, the metaphor might not wholly be apparent, but in my head, I envision the smelly cat being a patient. At face value, you see a sick organism, but when you deprive it from its putrid smell, you find that it’s an organism that wants to be loved with a will to live. In human medicine, you get to see sick individuals as a doctor, and through treating them and getting to know them, you give these individuals a chance to be heard and continue living their lives. Through scribing and personal experience, I can tell you of three distinct individuals who have significantly...

...one. While easy to overlook, these relationships play a big part in our day to day lives, and as I’ve learned not always in a good way. I found out firsthand, while reading Hal Herzog’s Some We love, Some We hate, Some We Eat: Why It’s So Hard to Think Straight About Animals, how hard it is to see a subject in a new light. I found myself torn between what I thought of as morally right and logically correct. The major argument being, is it morally ok to feed unwanted kittens to snakes? As I write this paper, I periodically glance at the picture I have of my fluffy grey cat Henry. Henry passed away when he had to be relocated to my aunt’s ranch, our house flooded in 2009 and our new condo didn’t allow pets. Now Henry had a cozy life with the Schettlers and on the ranch. Yet my aunt claims to this day, that he died of a broken heart. I, however sweet and sentimental the thought, argue that he died because my mom accidentally let him go a couple of turns in the dryer… Henry was always a fighter; I rescued him from the woods, out of a litter of two kittens he was the only survivor. His mother and sister did not make it out of the woods, but Henry wasn’t giving up that easily. After the tragic incidents that were the start of Henry’s life, I convinced my father to let him stay in the house. I know there is controversy over how animals actually feel about us, but I can assure you, you wouldn’t have questioned our relationship. I knew he was mad at me for leaving him;...

...Edgar Allan Poe was a 19th century writer and one of the most celebrated writers today. He was known for his unique writing style. Today I will be analysing the main character in his story “The Black Cat” and whether or whether not he should be classified as a psychopath. The character starts off rather normal, living a normal life with a cat and life. That all changes when the character mutilates a cat which he supposedly loves, giving no reason beyond that he feels like he has to do it. The cat fears him, and eventually, he would hang it, still giving no solid reason. The cat comes back in some sort of ethereal form, which he fears. He opts to kill it, attemping to strike it with an axe and kill it, but his wife stops him. He kills his...

...my cats Long time ago, a people raised a cat and a dog as his pet. And the cat and the dog were very good friends. They ate together, lived together, and play together. They almost stayed together all of the day. One day, the master lost his ancestral gem and he was very sad. Then the cat and the dog decided to find the gem. On the road, they met a mountain, the dog said” Cat brother, climb on my back!” Then they met a river. The cat couldn’t swim. The dog said” Don’t worry. I can help you. Climb on my back.” Finally, they found the gem. But when they returned to home, the cat told their master” it’s me who find the gem, and the dog did nothing.” When the dog wanted to explain it, the master didn’t give dog a chance. He gave the cat a delicious fish, and kicked the dog out of the door. The dog and the cat weren’t friend since then. That’s why dogs bite cats as soon as they meet, and dogs always pursue while cats always escape. And another reason is that dogs and cats have very different language. When the dog meets the cat, the dog always wags tail, because they think it is a friendly way. But cats often think it is provocation. But nowadays dogs and cats aren’t always enemy any more. Sometimes, they can stay together peacefully. Maybe you could say the dog is a better pet. But I don’t know why, I just like cats very much. I always become crazy when I meet a cat. They are really cute. When they want something, they fawn on you and follow you all around. And cats can be very...

...Many homes around the world have at least one cat living inside as a pet; in fact many homes have a few cats dwelling in them. People raise these animals for many reasons. Some want them for their companionship. Cats are soft, sweet, and lovable. People like playing with them when they are kittens and once they are older and calm love just snuggling with them. The reason these people keep cats is mainly for enjoyment. However, many other people keep cats to control the mouse or insect population in their house or on their farms. These cats usually do not come into much contact with their owners. Most just stay outside or in the barn where the mice are. But the question is where did cats originally come from, who first domesticated them, and who are their first ancestors? I think that all cats from the giant lions of Africa to the small house cat all came from the same ancestor. I will address and hopefully answer these questions and try to shed some light on the subject. I read many websites dealing with this issue. One was from the Feline Advisory Bureau and another was written by H. Ellen Whiteley. Both are considered experts on this subject. Ironically both art Also found in this area was another animal that many consider the species that the genus Felis descended from. This animal was called the miacis (4), a cat like meat eater whose fossils have been found in areas of North America, Europe, and Asia. These fossils were all found in the Eocene age, anywhere from the...

...alive, as she watches in horror. The line “Nevertheless I am the same, identical woman”(34), represents her maintaining her identity even though this crowd has ripped her apart. In other words, the crowd dehumanized her by ripping off her skin and clothes, an attempt to strip her of her identity. But despite this horrific event that the crowd put her through, she remains the same woman. There may also be a possibility that by her making it clear to us that she is the “same identical woman”(34), she is letting us know that although she has been resurrected from the dead, she is the same woman that she was before death. She is stressing to us that she is the same woman who died and came back to life. She has not been reincarnated nor is the “dead” version of her just a twin. She is the walking miracle who died then came back to life for the third time. It seems that Lady Lazarus is fighting for power and control in this poem. Although she seems to have power in this poem through her use of words, imagery, and language,...
