CATS!!

Cats are very lovable animals. There are lots of different kinds of cats in the world, and also a lot of different colors. If you have a calico cat, then it will be a girl cat. If it is a boy cat then you could probably get a lot of money from it because they are very rare. My family and I have four cats in the house. Three of the cats are from my aunt and uncle. My aunt found them at her work and the mom got fan over, so she brought them home. The cats were very small so every one thought they would die, but they didn't. They are healthy cats now. Once we sell our dog, the cats will be going outside. We can't put them outside with our dog because our dog kills cats, so that is why we have to wait until we can sell the dog. Cats kill mice that is why we want them outside in the barn. Cats are a lot of to have to play with, have babies, and to cuddle with.

FROG!!

At my house the furnace stopped working and my dad couldn't figure out why. My dad then called the the guy that fixes the furnace and he came to look at the furnace. When the guy came he went downstairs in the old house and looked around. He found a frog that had did something to the furnace to make it not work and then frog died. There was no smell of the dead frog though. Our furnace is fixed now!!

DUCKS!

I like ducks because they are fun to play with and watch the babies grow. The mom with chase you though, if you mess with her babies. It is also very cool to watch the babies come out of their egg.

My grandma and grandpa use to have ducks, and my aunt use to bring the one of the babies inside to play with in the kitchen and my grandma wouldn't be happy about that. My grandma had a lot of things in her kitchen though. My grandparents would have millions of ducks and let them have babies in their hay. They would sell the babies after a while to people who wants to buy them.

DOGS!!

There is so many types of dogs in the world, and they come in a lot of different colors. Some of the types of dogs are pugs, collie, boxer, and a lot more. There is over 100 types of breeds. The colors can be black, brown, cream, and tons more. Dogs can have up to fifteen puppies at a time. The record for the most puppies is twenty-three. They were American Foxhounds, and they were born on June 19, 1944 in Ambler, Pennsylvania. Dogs can be so many things: a wonderful pet, a sheep dog, a gift to another person, and many other things. There is some mean dogs in the world and you don't want to mess with them because they can hurt you very badly. Dogs are the most popular pets in the world, and they are man's best friend. It is said that dogs have the cleanest mouthes of any animal, even though they drink from the toilet.

I live on a farm. Dogs are the animals that I am most connected to. There are two dogs on our farm. A long-haired Chihuahua named, Cookie; and a Amish dog named, Buddy. I like these dogs because they will protect me and they will cuddle with you. All of our dogs are in the house if we get them as a puppy. We put them in our kitchen and trap them there or we put them in a little pin. If they are in the kitchen, we sometimes sleep with them. My family had a dog and her name was Peaches, and she went to the neighbors and got herself pregnant. She ended up having 19 puppies and all of them lived, but one of them died. My dad, brothers, and I took the puppies to the Denison Sale Barn and sold them there. My dad didn't like that she had puppies, so now we can't have anymore girl dogs.

COWS!!

There are so many types of cows in the world. Some of them are; angus, holstein, jerseys, short hair, and many more! There is also a lot of different kind of colors. They are; black, brown, black and white, and lots more! You can ride bulls like at the rodeo, show cows like at a fair, drive cows, sell cows and a lot more! My dad and brother started with one calf and now they are at two calves. We are going to keep getting one more calf each time. When they get to three hundred pounds we take them to the Denison Sale Barn and sell them and then get more calves! My grandpa owns angus cows and he breeds them and then he will sell some of them bigs ones for meat. He then gives them to his kids.

HORSES!!

At my house, I have one horse and my grandpa and grandma have five horses. My dad brings our horse to my grandparent's house to drive them. My cousins get to drive the horses around the farm, and so does my family. My grandpa and dad bring our horses to Albert City Threshermen and Collectors Show to give people rides for fun. It is really fun to drive horses and have sleigh rides in the snow.

PIGS!!

My dad has worked with pigs his whole life. He started out with fat hogs and now he has feeder pigs at home. When my mom and dad go on vacation, I have to feed the hogs at home. When you feed them at home, I have to fill buckets with feed and carry them to the feeder. My dad also has three hog building he takes care of. When my dad loads at one of his hog buildings, he lets my brothers and I help him.
