My Cat Gregory Gregory is my beautiful gray Persian cat.

He walks with pride and grace, performing a dance of disdain as he slowly lifts and lowers each paw with the delicacy of a ballet dancer. His pride, however, does not extend to his appearance, for he spends most of his time indoors watching television and growing fat. He enjoys TV commercials, especially those for Meow Mix and 9 Lives. His familiarity with cat food commercials has led him to reject generic brands of cat food in favor of only the most expensive brands. Gregory is as finicky about visitors as he is about what he eats, befriending some and repelling others. He may snuggle up against your ankle, begging to be petted, or he may imitate a skunk and stain your favorite trousers. Gregory does not do this to establish his territory, as many cat experts think, but to humiliate me because he is jealous of my friends. After my guests have fled, I look at the old fleabag snoozing and smiling to himself in front of the television set, and I have to forgive him for his obnoxious, but endearing, habits. My cat is a male cat named Pussy. It has big body with soft white fur. Its eyes are round and big. It has long thick fury tail. Its face is oval with long whiskers. Pussy is a lazy cat but it is very funny. It sleeps during the day. It awakes at eating time only. It doesnt like playing but it likes laying down on the sofa. Anyway Pussy always makes me smile. Its sound is funny. And it always accompanies me doing my homework. I really love my cat, Pussy.
