Feeding the cats at my house is a long and strenuous process. While not a chore, I help out and feed them when I come home from school. I've been feeding these cats for many years and I've developed a process over time. This process will require a skill in herding cats, patience, and taking charge. The first thing to do is to locate the cats. While some can be found in their normal spots, like Kiki sitting on the air conditioner, others can be more difficult in finding. Calling their names (Butter, Squeaky, Penny, Kiki, and Mr. Nom) will usually result in them running to the porch. If after a few minutes some cats don't come, move on to the next step. Now after locating and letting the cats inside (except for Squeaky, unless Mr.Nom was not found, then let her in), be prepared, for here comes the real challenge; feeding. …show more content…
By now, it is most likely a melody of screaming meows and being head butted by the cats. Take all of the cats bowls and place them on the counter. Open a can of wet food and get a scoop of the dry food. Place a spoonful of wet food into two bowls and pour some dry food over it. With the other two bowls, these are Butter and Penny's, place two spoonfuls of wet food. Give Mr.Nom his food first as he will steal every one you place before his. Give the other three there food bowls and get a good sized scoop of dry food to give to Squeaky outside. After coming inside from feeding Squeaky you'll most likely see Mr.Nom shoving Penny and trying to steal her food. This is when you'll have to take

According to the “Hunger and Poverty Fact Sheet” on Feeding America’s website, in 2014 there were over 48 million Americans living in food insecure households, which included 32 million adults and 15 million children. For over 35 years, Feeding America continues to be in the forefront in solving this crisis by providing food to people in need through a nationwide network of food banks. In the late 1960s, Van Hengel established the nation’s first food bank and years later established the first national organization of food banks, Second Harvest. Second Harvest was later called America’s Second Harvest the Nation’s Food Bank Network and in 2008, the national organization changed its name to Feeding America.
Upon arrival to the island the two main character's Piggy and Ralph find a conch shell, which they believe could help them find the other boys. Ralph was the appointed leader for the boys.

Instead of thinking some more, Gabriel decided to go find where and what the sound was. When he found out the sound was coming from a little kitten, he felt very lucky! I know this because in the text it said, “ He had never imagined he would be lucky enough one day to find a kitten.” Throughout the story he had been feeling very lonely, and he wanted some company. The kitten had given him exactly what he had wanted!
They continue walking and Ralph spots a shell. That Piggy explained it’s so expensive and fragile. Piggy came up with the idea of using the shell to attract others attention. He says, “We can use this to call the others. Have a meeting. They’ll come when they hear us- (Golding 16).” If it wasn’t for Piggy’s brilliant idea the boy’s would've never had a meeting to meet each other and have a start to a plan where they can possibly be rescued. However Ralph doesn’t keep his word that he wouldn’t say anything. Ralph said “He’s not Fatty, his real name is Piggy (Golding 21).” Then everyone starts to laugh and he makes Piggy feel bad. Ralph’s feelings towards Piggy change in a matter of seconds, just to fit in with the crowd. Although Piggy was treated bad by Ralph, he still voted for him to be chief. Later on, since Ralph was

After a while, it was such that if I was home, the cats would follow me where ever I went. Just like Stickeen who “was sure to be at his heels, provided I had not gone out.”(par. 7). Every time I drove into the driveway, regardless of where they would be, they would come running out to greet me. The minute I stepped out of the car, they would circle me brushing against my feet and look at me with excitement in their eyes. Then they would stand up on their hind limbs and ask for a petting on their

The cat rubbing up against your leg isn 't looking for love, its simply looking for smelly treat that you might give it just in case that maybe it does something good in its life, which lets be honest here, never happens! These animals don 't love you they want you to know they own you, your wrapped around their tiny little paws. Not only do these feline enemies tug on your delicate heartstrings but they love to rip out the hearts of innocent little creatures like chipmunks for fun. “Cats are natural born hunters. A 2013 study revealed that each year, domestic cats kill 20.7 billion smaller animals, including mice, chipmunks, voles and 3.7 billion birds. Cats are actually the number one killer of these animals.Cats spend one-third of their day just killing animals, and they don’t even do it because they’re hungry. They do it because they feel like it. They murder just to murder, like the genocidal barbarians that they are.” (LaFata) Even with these statistics staring avid cat lovers in the face, some will still say that cats are loved more than dogs, that is false.

When you talk to pet owners about owning a cat versus a dog, it stirs up much controver-sy in many ways. By looking at both cats and dogs, the cat outweighs the dog in many ways, which makes the cat the superior selection when making a final decision on which one to get. Cats have very desirable qualities that make them an award winning choice to many owners. The qualities that appeal to most are the ability of the cat to live in small spaces, they do not eat large amounts of food for their meals, and they are very sedentary and independent in nature making them a low maintenance pet. One additional desired feature is cats are well suited for owners that have a very busy lifestyle and minimal time to give to their pet. This added feature
