| Dear Atria, do you remember Whiskey, Anna's cat? Here he is in his funny sleeping positions. He occupies Anna's computer chair so she kneels on the floor in front of the screen in order not to disturb the sleeping cat. |  |  |
I personally don't like cats in the house as they shed a lot of hair and they scratch furniture and wallpaper. Whiskey is certainly doing it. Unfortunately Anna doesn't mind and in her house she lets the cat to do whatever he wants. I disagree with this and Whiskey knows it well and every time when I come to visit Anna he quickly runs out of the room and jumps in to his sleeping basket pretending he has been there all the time. He looks very innocent then and he behaves like a perfect cat in front of me. He is very clever and he can recognize my footsteps, so when I am approaching the door I can only hear his cat flap opening and the cat is out in his basket at the back of the kitchen. I think my dislike of having animals in the house developed through upbringing and also has its roots in our culture - in Iran we just did not have animals in the house and my parents considered them as unhygienic. I don't think I will ever like to have a pet in the house. I like them and don't have anything against them, but I prefer to see them outdoors. What are your views dear Atria? Do you have a pet? Would you like to have one? If you would what pet would that be? I would probably be ok with a fish :-)
