Cats are the most beautiful of sail animals
that live. I think they help the farmers
in three different ways. and the farmers
have never stopped to think how much good
cats do. They are Of so many different
colors and NEW so beautifully, that makes
them sound so sweet. What would we do
without cats, for they help US out lot.
Some people can't stand cats and some are
crazy about them. They do harm.
unless they are too stingy with food.
