In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This should go without saying, but too many people abandon animals because they didn't realize their living conditions were unfriendly to pets. If you're a renter, read over the terms of your lease regarding companion animals. If they are allowed, ask your landlord if your rent will be increased. Make sure no one in your household is allergic to cats. If someone is allergic, make sure they can manage their allergies before bringing a furry friend into the home. You can also consider adopting an allergy-friendly breed. These cats don't let loose as much dander as other breeds and are less likely to trigger allergies. However, there is no such thing as a totally hypoallergenic cat. While adult cats are independent, kittens don't like to be alone for too long. If you live alone, think about who will feed your cat if you have to work late or go away on business. Ask yourself if you're willing to clean the litter box at least daily and give the cat regular brushings. Even with regular brushings, cats shed regularly. This means you'll need to vacuum about once to twice a week. If you don't live alone, you'll need to ask your housemates (significant other, children, flatmates, etc.) if they're willing to help with the responsibilities. If you have children, you could add feedings and brushings to their chores. Many shelters take care of the first check-up, microchipping, and spaying/neutering. However, you'll need to set money aside for yearly examinations and vaccinations. If you plan on letting your cat outside, you'll need to budget for heartworm prevention. You'll also need to consider the expenses involved in buying food, treats, and cat litter. If you have to be away from home often, you should also consider the cost of a trusted cat sitter. Consider insuring your pet against unforeseen health expenses.
Summary: Make sure you can bring a cat into your home. Weigh the responsibilities. Make sure you have enough money.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Revenge comes from feeling diminished by your aggressor and subsequently, you feel ashamed that you allowed this to happen. Such feelings may cause you to feel angry, leading to your desire to seek revenge. Emotions are felt physically, so recognizing the physical signs of each emotion can help you get them under control. For example, when you are angry, your blood pressure rises and heat radiates from your shoulders through the back of your head. Your emotions can drive your decision making by creating a deeper connection to each decision. When you are feeling angry, you might make more rash decisions than if you felt happy. Putting your feelings into words can help you come to terms with them and clarify your thoughts. Writing down your feelings can help reduce the intensity of your feelings, and help lessen your deep-seated desire for revenge. If you do not like to write you feelings down on paper, try talking to someone about your emotions. Find a trusted friend or family member and tell them exactly what is going on: how you feel, who was involved, the reasons for wanting revenge, how you think revenge will make you feel, etc... . Go to a quiet room, sit on the floor, close your eyes and focus on taking slow, deep breaths. While you are meditating, try to empty your mind of all negative thoughts and concentrate on positive things in your life. Mediation has been scientifically shown to reduce stress and may be a great coping mechanism for your desires for revenge. It can slow your thoughts and help you feel calm and centered. Your emotions may become overwhelming and difficult to handle. At times like these, try repeating positive affirmations to yourself to remind you that even though you aren't in control of the situation, you are in control of your response. These are some mantras you could try repeating to yourself: "Things could be worse." "I will take charge of my response to this person's actions." "I can make it through this." "This is only temporary."
Summary: Understand the basic emotions. Write down your feelings. Meditate Repeat self-calming statements.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Grab a long raw carrot from the grocery store for the snowman's nose. Place it in the middle of the top snowball. Make sure you place it so there is room above it for eyes and below it for a mouth. Making the snowman your own is all about creativity. If you have something else that you think would look cool as a nose, use that instead. Place them above the carrot and space them evenly to the right and the left. Push them into the head, and twist them in a circle so that they stick in the snow. Any round object will work for the eyes. Other options to use for eyes are yellow ping-pong balls, blue rubber bouncy balls, or large green plastic gems. Use the same thing you used for the eyes to make the mouth, or mix it up with other round objects. Place the mouth under the nose, but not too close to the middle section. Cut a mouth out of felt, stick some fake plastic teeth in the face, or bend a piece of rubber tubing into a smile. Find a couple of sticks that are about one inch (2.5 cm) or less wide and around three feet (1 meter) long. Push the sticks into the middle section of the snowman. Position the sticks so they are angled up or down, giving the snowman the look you like best. Before the arms, if you want, put a shirt or coat of some kind around the body of the snowman. Also use old broom sticks, golf clubs, or fake skeleton arms! This is where you have even more space for creativity. Grab an old ball cap, cowboy hat, fedora, or top hat for the snowman's head. Wrap a colorful scarf around its neck. Use old stuff that you don't mind possibly ruining. Add a tie, sunglasses, or any other accessories to make the snowman stand out from the rest.
Summary:
Stick a carrot in the middle of the head for a nose. Use buttons, pebbles, or charcoal for eyes. Make a mouth with a row of pebbles or charcoal. Add two sticks for the snowman's arms. Top off the snowman with a hat and scarf.
