    no good, and is to fat to run. His name is "Terry"
    We have a cat but he is seldom at home, he spends most of his time in Mr. Fisher's shop. The reason is that there is plenty of rats and mice for him to catch.
    His name is "Tom". The reason we called him "Tom" is because he is a tom-cat.
    He is a great mouse and rat catcher and is also able to catch birds. He is not afraid of dogs live other cats, he puts a hump on himself when a dog near him, and starts to fight.
