While dogs are the most popular household pet, cats run a close second. Cats are not often noticed by people choosing a new four﹣legged friend. An animal expert explains why they make fantastic pets.

Cats VS Dogs It seems that many people prefer dogs to cats. Often people who grew up with dogs find it difficult to imagine owning and loving cats. But they can be surprised to learn how friendly and responsive cats are.

Good points of keeping cats Cats are always in small size. They can be a great pet choice for people with limited space and busy lifestyles. They don't have the exercise requirements like dogs. Besides, they are quiet and clean. In a word, cats are low maintenance and happy to be left alone indoors. Cats can be very playful and interactive with children and offer them chances to learn to care for another, living being.

Keeping dogs and cats together Dogs and cats become great companions（伙伴）, especially if they are raised at the same time. They can become friends with each other, the younger, the better.

Help to decide If you've never actually owned a cat, but are thinking of it, talk to cat owners, or offer to house-sit for a cat owner. You could visit an animal centre and interact with cats. It helps decide whether you might enjoy their companionship. You may be surprised to discover how wonderful cats really are.

At many Thanksgiving dinners， everyone around the table shares something they are thankful for． As we know， most can do this easily． It's more important to know how to be thankful people all the time．

Be positive（乐观）． No matter what happens， it's best to remember the good things． Find the bright side in bad situations， and push back against negative（负面的） opinions． Also， do your best not to compare yourself to others． But when you're around others， give expression to what you like about them． By keeping good in mind， you'll gibe thanks for it even more than before．

Accept the negative． At the same time， we can't pay no attention to bad things that have happened． We should learn from mistakes． It makes us become strong． Before we know it， we're thankful for negative things， too． Our mistakes can also make us humble（谦逊的）， which is not all bad． Humble people have better relationships and see life's blessings（祝福） much more clearly !

Acts of kindness． Thankful people know that it's much better to give than to receive． When you're thankful， you feel it's your duty to show love to others． Some people volunteer to help people in need． Studies show that volunteers might feel happier and healthier．

Use of time． By spending time with others， you show them how much they mean to you． But being thankful is also better realized by spending time alone． When you're alone ， you can think about the best parts of your day ．You can list them out and think them over． You can find your way to make thanksgiving a part of your life． How wonderful it is! Just enjoy it every day!
