DOGS AND CATS

Fat had a cat. His name was Fluffy. Fat loved him very much. He went with Fluffy to the park every day. They usually walked in the park in the afternoon.

It was Thursday. It was time to go to the park but Fat didn't go.

"Fat, it's time to go for a walk with Fluffy," his mother said.

"I can't, mum. I'm still doing my homework.

I have got a lot of homework today," said Fat. "OK, go later," said his mum.

It was seven o'clock in the evening when Fat's homework was ready. He took Fluffy in his arms and off they went. They came to the park and sat down on the grass. Suddenly Fat saw Clever. She was with her dog, Dolly.

"Hey, Clever!" shouted Fat. "Come here! Let's play together!"

Now Clever saw Fat. But at the same time Clev- er's dog saw Fat's cat. Dolly was very angry. She didn't like cats. In fact, she hated cats. So she barked and ran to Fluffy. Fluffy wasn't silly. In fact, he was a very clever cat. He ran fast to the nearest tree and climbed it up.

Now Fluffy sat in the tree and Dolly jumped and barked under the tree. Clever and Fat were under the tree too. They didn't know what to do.

"Take away your dog!" cried Fat.

"I can't!" cried Clever. "She is stronger than me! Do it yourself, please, or climb up the tree and take your cat down."

"I can't," said Fat. "Your dog is very angry and she is barking. She can bite me! I'm afraid!"
