Author luis and juvenal
I trust the author Burkhard Bilger, because some of the articles he wrote are based on his experiences like hunting for coons, and noodling for catfish.

The clinic treated 6,028 animals in the first full year. Today we reviewed the use of topic sentences and holding hands. For example paragraph sixteen and seventeen were holding hands because in paragraph seventeen the first sentence refers back to paragraph 16, which makes both paragraphs hold hands. We also went over topic sentences, an example would be paragraph 16 which talks about the cartoonish image of clientele and the rest of the paragraph talks about that topic and supports it

My reaction to the first part of the article made me feel sad because of how they describe the cat. I cant imagine how much pain the cat is in, and the owner for having to deal with the suffering of his cat. In the first few paragraphs of the article it shows the owners compassion for the cat because he has to take him to the city to try to help the cat. On top of all that he is a middle class man having to deal with the payments in exchange for the health of Lady but its all worth it because he loves his wife.

Today we went over a number of things in the paragraph and reviewed the use of semi collins. The first thing we wont over was the vivid words that described the characters in the article, for example ravaged or ravishing described the cat Lady. The second thing we went over was contrast, in paragraph two of the article, Shawn Levering was bewildered by the contrast between the city of New York and his home Wilmington Delaware. Also we learned the use of semi collins, it is used to make a list.

the last meow luis and juvenal
1. The title of our next essay is "The Last Meow." What do you think this essay will be about and why? In this pre-reading exercise, answer both these questions. Each answer should be at least 30 words.
2. How important are pets in your life and in the lives of the people you know?
1. Because of the title, we believe that the article is going to be about cats, and because it says "The last meow" we think the cat will meet his death somewhere in the article.
2. My dog is very important to me, and I think of him as part of my family. We had him since he was a puppy and I don't know what I would do with out him. Simba will always be my best friend and that's how important pets are in my life.
