Cat Observation

Improved Essays
I have many cats, 6 of them to be exact, and I have always noticed a pecking order to them. I have always wanted to know the exact order they fall into. I have set up a Singer sewing machine box, it's a big rectangular box, max capacity in the box is two cats at the most, if they want to share. In this observation I will take 2 hours to watch them dominate this box and see who will take over the box entirely. This observation will help determine the top cat in my household.
From oldest cat to the youngest we have; Cody, he's about 14 years old and was the first cat to ever set foot in our house and has been there for everything and loves to cuddle every night, he’s a black and white short haired, very talkative, and loves milk every morning

Overnight the box got turned sideways the open end is facing towards the T.V and at the moment Lil Code is inside the little cardboard box curled up and sleeping. Pam has set foot in the house through the backdoor and started walking to the box she looks inside and sees Lil Code. She then rapidly starts to bat at Lil code waking her up and making her very confused Lil Code runs away to the top of the stairs and hides away from her abusive mother. Pam then sniffs the box and walks away to the kitchen to eat as if nothing happened. Moments later after Pam has left the premises Lil Code has gone back into the box and is now comfortable sleeping again. A bit later after nothing appears to happen I move around and accidentally hit the box and scared her she has ran away for good now. An hour later Cody comes and lays on top of the box nobody seems to look like he is going to challenge him. Cody then leaves and comes to lay on my lap for the time being the box just doesn't equal a warm lap. Cloud has now climbed up on top of the box where cody was he sniffs it and scratches it real quick he is purring so loudly as if saying “this is perfect I will lay here.” He scratches himself then stretches out his legs out and curls back into a

    Insanity In The Black Cat

    • 226 Words
    • 1 Pages

    When the narrator in the Black Cat begins his story, he insists upon his sanity, and clarifies to the reader that the sole purpose of the narration is to unburden his soul. As he continues, it becomes evident that his aim is instead focused upon reliving and understanding the murders he committed. Throughout the narrative, the man contextualizes his guilt by denying the agency of his thoughts while claiming ownership of his actions. To begin his story, the man insists, “…mad I am not – and very surely do I not dream” (Poe, 1). In saying this, he acknowledges the insanity of which his story embodies, but holds that they are mere events governed by fact while insisting upon his own standard state of mind.…

    1. In “The Black Cat,” the narrator says, “There is something in the unselfish and self-sacrificing love of a brute, which goes directly to the heart of him who has frequent occasion to test the paltry friendship and gossamer fidelity of man.” The narrator states how his relationships with other people are small and meager. He implies humans are not trustworthy nor are they dependable. In comparison to humans, the author is trying to express how animals are sympathetic creatures who love their owners in an unselfish and self-sacrificing way.…

In our experiment, we plan on testing the effects of different types of catnip on a cat's behavior, mental state, and overall ability to complete a maze. Catnip-or Nepeta cataria-”is a perennial herb from the mint family Labiatae” and “posses an oil inside the plant called nepetalactone, which causes the extreme sense pleasure and ecstasy in cats” (Cat World, 2014; HSUS, 2012). “The Sensitivity to the herb is a genetically autosomal dominant gene, which means it can only be passed down by one parent. So even though the majority of cats take effects to the plant, if the cat does not possess the desired genetic traits needed, they won’t have any reaction to it whatsoever”(HUSU, 2012).…

    I did my presentation over how many times my lovely guinea pig Gus whistled at me when I walked in the room. I got Gus about two years ago, and I will say he is a very needy piggy. His specific breed is a teddy guinea pig, which means he has some what long hair, and he is very fluffy. Now, on about my research. As I said before, Gus is needy; therefore, if I were to leave the room and come back he would want a treat, he would want me to pet him on his little head, or he would want me to just look at him.…

    However, the student didn't answer it right, which was beyond my expectation. To grade 6 students, the lead-in sentence seemed to be too complicated with alternative question for them to grasp though they were simple. They weren't able to respond correctly both in content and grammar. Appropriacy in language grading plays a vital role in a language teacher. Therefore, instead of giving a confusing lead-in instruction, I could have simply elicited a question, " Did Kitty live near school? ", which would be easy for them to answer without feeling nervous after answering it wrong.…

    In the article it states that Sedaris’s “stories require more than twenty drafts to get right.” I could not rewrite a story that many times, but it must be satisfactory for him otherwise it would not be a part of his process. Another part of it is that he wants to balance humor with sadness, because he says that every humorous story needs “sorrow to give the laughter a bit of weight.” I disagree with this; a story can be solely made to evoke laughter, but those are not the type of stories Sedaris creates anymore. For example, he could write a story about his own jealousy.…
