For Anne's Sake (read this blog)

I read Animal Farm by George Orwell. I thought it was interesting. It is not really long, but it has a really interesting message about government and society. It is interesting how we can eventually turn into our enemies if we are not watching ourselves. The animals on Manor Farm are tired of being controlled by humans. They overthrow the humans and create Animal Farm. At first, they live in peace, but many things change as power gets to the pigs heads. Here is what I liked (+) and disliked (-) about this book: + It is short. + It is fairly entertaining. + I feel like you learn something when you read it. At least, I did. - A bit odd. Not that that is bad, but I was a bit hard to... grasp at times. - I got confused with the names sometimes. Overall rating: *** (3/5 stars)

I have recently gained a respect for cat-owners. I don't have a cat, and honestly, I don't know if I will ever own a cat. I think that kittens are cute, (I am no monster) but I would prefer a dog over a grown cat. My family has been visiting some friends who have four cats. One of their cats is particularly frisky. When it is hungry, he will cuddle up to you, and then bite your face. He likes to sneak in the bathroom while you are in their and sit on you or jump in the shower. They also have a cat that is still considered a kitten, (it is about 6 months old) and it is SO CUTE AND FLUFFY! But it hates cuddling and won't sit with you. The kitty litter is so gross. I don't want a box of pee, poop, and sand sitting in my house. That is nasty.   Also, if a cat gets mad, it will scratch you, and you will bleed. In conclusion, dogs. I would rather own a dog. I like cats, so if I ever a cat, it will be an outside cat.
