Home Means Everything

A Home means to be happy and excited and you should also feel safe. A home is a place to spend time with family or friends. When you are with a pet you may feel relaxed and happy. I hope everyone is thankful to have a home because there are some people that don't. I think everyone should have a home. I once had a cat and she loved to roll around and she was the best first cat. She was always really relaxed. I loved to play with her with her toys. One day she passed away because of a heart disease and I felt the worst. I could not sleep that night. The person that put my cat down, she went through the same thing and you can never have too much time with a pet. It is important to spend time with a pet because the time may be limited. I now have a new cat and I was so happy to get a second cat. When I first went to get my cat she just walked into the carrier. I was always lonely and now I am not that lonely and I still always miss my first cat. She was the best! My new cat always runs really fast. She sometimes jumps over me when I am sitting on my couch and she sometimes scares me! My new cat sometimes lays down on my couch and I pet her for a little while but then she always runs away and looks out the window on her pineapple bed. I am really thankful for a home. I am also thankful for food and water. Thank you Habitat for Humanity for giving people homes that don't have any homes!
