My Cat- Dog
by Olivia
I’m on a case to figure out if I
own cat-dog. I think my cat is turning into one! Here’s my evidence so far. My
Chloe (that’s my cat’s name) often scratches at the door to be let out.
“Squirrel! Squirrel!” she tells me. At first, I don’t believe her. I decide to
check it out. “I declare! There really is a squirrel!” I tell her. Sometimes,
she pulls herself along a carpeted floor with her front paws. I bet she’s too
in love with the floor to leave it. I’ve seen my cousin’s corgi do something
like that before, except I don’t think he was in love with the floor.
I have another suspicion. My
cat-dog chases her tail! I’ve definitely seen a dog do that. Well, I guess she
doesn’t chase her tail, but she does bite it! Sometimes she even growls at it.
“Ooh! Ooh!” she tells me. “My tail is moving! It’s wiggling! It’s so exciting!
I must get it! I must get it! I’m a cat-dog so I must catch my tail!”
This is so weird for me. It must
stop. Hmm. Perhaps, No…. Wait………Yes! I’ve got it! (not my tail) If my cat is
turning dog, then I should pretend she is one! Yep! Hang on, I need to make a
trip to the pet store. Alright. Let’s try this. I have never owned a dog, but I
have seen how my friends take care of theirs.
“Here girl!” I tell my new dog. “Go
get it!” she doesn’t get it. “Go get the new rubber ball I bought for you!”
Ugg. At least she sort-of went after it. I guess this dog can’t play fetch.
This changes my thoughts. I guess I should try the two other things I bought at
the pet store……
“Come girl!” Let’s try out this new
collar and leash! I found my dog and put on her collar and leash. “Let’s go for
a walk!” I tell her. I tug on the leash. She stays put. I tug on it again.
Nope. That darn dog. On my last tug she flopped down on her side and WOULD NOT
BUDGE! That’s it. I’m done. Outta ideas. I obviously still have a cat…. She’s
just…strange. Well, I have to return the leash, collar, and rubber ball I
bought! Case closed.
We call that species a cog. Good job! LOL
