Cat owners often debate whether it is best for cats to stay in or go out. Some believe you should keep your cat indoors at all times. Others think your cat should be allowed to go outside when it wants to.
Owners who think your cat should stay inside argue that it is too dangerous for cats to roam outside. Allowing cats outside also increases the chance that they will be exposed to diseases like feline leukemia. In addition to being concerned about the health of their cat, these cat owners do not like the uninvited guests outdoor cats may bring home. For example, fleas can jump on a cat outside, hitch a ride inside, and multiply once inside your home. Outdoor cats also have a tendency to bring home “treats” for their owners—a dead mole on the doorstep or worse, on your pillow.
But people on the other side of the issue argue that it is cruel to keep a cat indoors. How many hours does an indoor cat spend staring out the window, watching birds or the cars on the street? These owners say it is unnatural for animals never to go outside. They also claim that without exercise cats will grow fat and lazy, sleeping on the sofa. Once cats get a taste of the outdoors, they usually are no longer content to stay in all day. To these owners, this proves it is wrong not to let cats go outside.
If you do decide to let your cat outdoors, there are steps you can take to increase its safety. Try to bring the cat in at night, when it is more likely to be hit by a car or attacked by other animals. And all cats, whether indoor or outdoor, should wear a collar with identifying information in case they get lost.

A. it is most important to keep their cat safe

Why is Nyla worried about taking
care of the class pet?

In the first panel of Persepolis, Marjane Satrapi marks her narrative as an autobiographical coming-of-age novel: “This is me when I was 10 years old. This was in 1980” (3). The author also chooses to refer to her childhood protagonist with the nickname “Marji” — a diminutive form of “Marjane.” By differentiating her childhood self from her adult self, Satrapi suggests that her novel will pay close attention to the processes of childhood development and identity formation. How does Satrapi represent her protagonist’s process of identity development? How does Marji begin to discover who she is and what she believes?

PLZ PLZ PLZ HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST - SHARKS' TEETH
Langston Carter

The day we found the sharks' teeth was foggy and cool. Moisture hung in the air so thick you could almost see it sparkling in the dim sunlight. There were days, early in the summer like this one, where it seemed there was more water in the air than in the bay. We had beached the boat and stepped out on the recently cleared spit of land. The ground had a light dusting of white sand over an under layer of dried black mud. It looked like a recently frosted chocolate cake, though the frosting was spread a bit thin for my taste. The ground was solid, but we knew from experience that it was full of fiddler crab holes, and would be underwater at the first super-high tide. Mysteriously, to us anyway, someone wanted to build a house there.

We often came to these spots to look for artifacts. Our beach, our summer home, had been a fishing camp for as long as anyone living could remember. The oldest stories told of travelers coming down to the edge of the sea, lining up to fill their wagon beds with salted fish to take back home. Old decaying cabins still lined the beach. Rotting nets, hung out to dry in the last century, decorated their weathered walls. Their broken faces spun stories in our minds. The fishermen who, tanned and wrinkled from sun and salt, hauled their nets full of splashing mullet in to cheers from the waiting crowds. The bounty of the sea lightened everyone's hearts, and the smell of roasting fish filled the damp air. Women fanned themselves from wagon seats. Children splashed in the shallow edges of the bay. It was a scene we had acted out as youngsters, building an imaginary bridge to a life we would never fully know.
