Green 💚

 Green

Green looks like a big green tree

Green sounds like a nice cool breeze

Green smells like wet fresh soil

Green feels like jumping high and free on a trampoline

Green tastes like fresh fruit

Green is happiness


 


Simile Poem: My big sister ❤️

 She is as kind as a flower,
She is like a rainbow, making cloudy days happy,
She is a sweet as honey,
She is like a bee, working hard to make people happy
She is as bright as the sun, 
She is my big sister.

Why cats are better than dogs

 If you are thinking of getting a pet,here are three reasons why cats are the best pet. I think they are better  because they are cleaner, easier, and less expensive.

Have you ever tried cleaning up after a dog? If you have then you know how annoying it is to clean up after their mess. But cats don't need you to pick up their poo with plastic bags over your hand. They also clean themselves with their spiky tongues, you will need to brush them once in a while but not as much as dogs, that need to get brushed every couple days.


If you have had a dog you will know that when you need a bit of space it is frustrating to have a dog barking at your heels unlike cats, that understand when you want space or when you want snuggles. (A tabby cat will not understand because all it wants is love.) Also it makes everyone angry when there is a dog howling in the middle of the night, but cats are almost always silent.


If you think of all the things dogs need, they are pretty expensive.  Walks are $15 to $20 dollars for 20 minute walks and getting them groomed and their nails cut  is $75 for big dogs and $40 for small dogs. But cats would rather stay inside sleeping, or playing and their nails are easier to cut at home. 


Therefore I think cats are better pets than dogs because they are cleaner, easier to take care of, and less expensive

Genie in a bottle: Narrative Writing

Once upon a time, in a far away land there lived a princess. Her name was Chloe. Chloe always wished that she would have a tabby cat to snuggle her all the time. For she was lonely and had no parents. “If I ever get the cat of my dreams, then I will name it Carrot.” And she sat alone in her bed, dreaming of what she should do if she had a cat. 


Then, one day Chloe went to get some royal tea in her royal palace. So she grabbed her teapot and started to pour her tea when… a genie popped out instead. “Hello Chloe! I am your genie! I can grant you 3 wishes! But, there are some rules! You can not wish for unlimited wishes or wish for me to make potions!” said the genie. “Wow!” Chloe exclaimed, “Well, I have always been wanting a cute and cuddly tabby cat!” said Chloe.


“Okay! Now all you have to do is just say “I wish” and then say your wish!” said the genie. “I'm ready!” said Chloe “I wish for a tabby cat that will want snuggles from me every day!” said Chloe “ Wish granted!” said the genie. And a fluffy, cute, tabby cat was in her hands, purring loudly and sleeping. “Thank you so much!” said Chloe “ No problemo!” said the genie 


“You have two more wishes! So what you wish for will come true!” The genie told Chloe “Well, I have one more wish, so I wish for a mountain of burritos because I love burritos!” and a pile of burrito pillows appeared next to her. “Well I meant real ones but you can keep these here because Carrot the cat would love them but I will use my next wish for a real pile of warm burritos!” said Chloe. And a big pile of warm burritos was next to all her fluffy burrito pillows.


 “Now that you have used all your wishes, you can enjoy all your burritos and your cat!” said the genie “Thank you!!” said Chloe as the genie was disappearing into his teapot. And Chloe lived happily ever after with millions of burritos in her kitchen and thousands of burrito pillows for snuggling Carrot.


THE END

How to make a cat adjust to you

Do you ever feel like when you are trying to make a cat love you that you are doing it wrong? Well no problem! Here are three steps to making a cat want snuggles from you every day!

To make the cat know that you are not going to hurt it, it has to trust you. Cats communicate by blinking so if you blink slowly to them they will know you wont hurt them. Blinking slowly means “I love you” in cat. When cats are hunting, they don't really want to blink slowly because they don't want to be prey for another animal so if they blink slowly they are giving you their time and they don't really do that in the wild.


To make the cat trust you more you have to give it something with your scent on it. This helps the cat investigate you. If the cat can investigate your scent then it will trust you more because it will get used to your smell.


Then to pet the cat without scaring it, you have to offer it your pointer finger and if it touches its nose on your finger then it trusts you enough to pet it.  


And there you have it! Now if a cat does not trust you then follow these three steps and you will have many furry friends!
