"All the things I am about to tell you are shameless lies." So begins the Books of Bokonon. Bokononism is an original religion that is introduced in this book, Cats Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut. The book shows the importance of religion, even if that religion is "shameless lies". It also displays how people convince themselves that things are better then they really are. I read this book because of a promise I made to my father. I'm glad I made that promise; I just read a delightfully funny and deep tale about the end of the world.

Edgar Allen Poe’s short story The Black Cat immerses the reader into the mind of a murdering alcoholic. Poe himself suffered from alcoholism and often showed erratic behavior with violent outburst. Poe is famous for his American Gothic horror tales such as the Tell-Tale Heart and the Fall of the House of Usher. “The Black Cat is Poe’s second psychological study of domestic violence and guilt. He added a new element to aid in evoking the dark side of the narrator, and that is the supernatural world.” (Womack). Poe uses many of the American Gothic characteristics such as emotional intensity, superstition, extremes in violence, the focus on a certain object and foreshadowing lead the reader through a series of events that are horrifying

When the kitten is born, up until it reaches the age of 2 weeks, kittens respond to different sounds, they open their eyes and will start to compete with their littermates for territory. If they are seperated from their mum and littermates at this age they will never learn how to behave around other cats and will be too rough with playing.
The kitten appears to suffer from heterochromia. It has two different coloured eyes, one a golden yellow colour and the other, a deep blue. Milk appears to be seeping from the woman’s breasts, dripping from her nipple and flowing down her chest. Breast feeding is a symbol of a bond between mother and child, the fundamental and basic apparatus to sustain

You can't toss a kitten into the toybox like you can your lego set or your barbie doll when you are bored playing with it.
Today, I went inside a pet store and overheard a conversation of a boy and his mother. He was trying to adopt a cat, but could not figure out which one he wanted. All 3 of the cat were very cute and looked friendly. He asked his mom which cat he should choose, to which his mom responded pick the cat which is the most playful. The boy listens to her advice, and tries to play with all three of them. One of the cats was actually aggressiveness and scratched the boy. Surprisingly, the boy did not cry but he knew not to choose that cat. The next cat was lazy, and did not play with the boy. The last cat was playful when the young boy approached the cat, and I’m guessing the boy adopted that cat. This reminds me of the tale “Choosing a Bride”, where
The structure of this piece is an expository essay, that is trying to send the message that identity may only determine where we belong. When the reader reads this piece my intention is for them to feel they are also in these positions and don't know how to react to these circumstances. When reading the section about Wild Cat Falling I hope that it sheds some light on the situations that a lost boy of aboriginal descent may feel when they don't know where to belong. This feeling should also be felt when reading the section about the Stolen generation there is some vivid images of what could happen if one was involved in the stolen generation and it opens people's eyes to the reality of the stolen generation. On a lighter note the use of the

Overall, the argument of The Great Cat Massacre was that a historian could use the writings of a particular point in history to determine the psychology of the people of that time. In this case, it was of the French people in the decades before the French Revolution. Like Natalie Zemon Davis, Darnton claimed he had the ability to know the mental landscape of the people he studied, understanding their motives based on the few words that were placed before him. But is this determination of a people’s mindset possible? How much of the cat massacre was Darnton’s thoughts and beliefs and how much were of the people he was studying? The truth is that there is no way of knowing what is history and what is Darnton’s perception of history. Like Davis, Darnton ran the fine line of telling history as it was, and using that history to support his own beliefs and opinions, and the critics, as before, had a problem with this practice.
Cats came to the United States from Europe. They came from Egypt before that, and they were treated very special in Egypt because one of their gods was a cat. This is when they got domesticated, which was almost 4,000 years ago. Even though they have been domesticated they still do what every living thing does. In order for cats to survive they must get energy, move and grow, adapt to the environment protect themselves and reproduce.
The Black Cat, written by Edgar Allen Poe, is a short story about a man, also the narrator, who starts out by living a “happy” life with his wife and favorite black cat, Plato. Although, he begins to be consumed by his drinking and becomes irritable. The black cat used to be by his side but now avoids him. This irritability leads him into becoming overly aggressive, which results in him hurting and murdering the cat. Then, a second cat appears who looks the same as Pluto but with a white spot on his chest. Eventually, the man starts to feel anger towards the cat and attempts to murder him with an axe, but his wife stops him. Unfortunately, his wife was hit in the head. The man then decides to bury his dead wife in his basement wall. He thinks he has got away with murder, but in the end, one learns that he had accidentally buried the cat alive with his wife. The cat reveals his hiding spot when he is caught by the police. Although it seems that the main character has committed these actions solely from alcoholism, it is obvious that there are signs he is also suffering from a mental illness.
