Reflection
When I read this book, I asked myself that what I should do if there were lots of cats in front of me! RAN! Yes, I would run. Although the cats in the book are cute and lovely, millions of eyes stared to me and all of them were eager to be adopted. I thought it was a very stressful for me, so I admired the old man's bravery.
After reading the story, I thought the group of cats were just like a society in our lives. They struggled for being a most beautiful one and to be forstered by the old man and woman. People were the same, too! For being promoted by their superiors winning a prize, they would pull strings to their competitpr and fighting each other. However, sometimes a people who was keep silent got benefits. It was said that "It's the third party that benefits from the tussle."
