Pets
Because of my living arrangements, I am unable to have pets, such as dogs and cats. I happen to love pets, not because I can feel like a master or a superior. Pets are a form of companionship and can often bring a sense of peacefulness. When I see a dog sleeps or a cat curls up, I can’t help but be attracted to observe the way the animal’s behaving. Over the recent years, I have come to know my sister’s golden retriever, Sugar. Sugar is an interesting dog; she doesn’t bark much and is only interested in chasing squirrels or rabbits. Not much of a retriever if you ask me since she never seem to understand the game of catch. Sugar is also a pretty dog, able to attract the attention of the people walking by. In a way, Sugar is just a kid that loves to be petted… trust me, this dog can’t get enough back rubs or belly rubs. Of course, which dogs out there don’t like to be petted?? Opposite of Sugar’s behavior is a dog that I recently met, Jake. Jake is an Australian Springer, and he is only interested in playing catch. He will look at you with those sad puppy eyes, with the Frisbee in his mouth, and waits until you play with him. A very energetic dog and obedient. Dogs are cool pets because you can take them places. They are dependent. I have heard that to get a dog as pet, the dog’s personality must match that of the owners/companions.
On the other hand, if you get a cat, forget about it! The cat is the master of its domain. Like what De Niro said in Meet the Parents, you have to work for the cat’s affection and cats don’t sell out like dogs do. However, some cats are rather dogs-like, if you permit me. The best part of having a cat is that the cat cleans up after itself. Furthermore, a cat’s behavior is more interesting to look at than that of a dog. I’m attracted to a cat’s curiosity and its inclination to explore.
One thing is for sure: all pets love you when you give them food and attention. Hmmm… wonder if that will work in human relationships? Hmmmm…. Most intriguing…
