Our Feline Friends
Smokey is being pet by a classmate. A classmate's Dad is holding the kitten. Smokey is dark grey and very active. He runs away from you when you try to pick him up.
A classmate is holding Cuddles the kitten. When Cuddles is awake sometimes she is active and sometimes she is calm. This classmate got Cuddles and Smokey at the Humane Society. Click here to see her Global Art Sense of Caring artwork and story about these two kittens and other classmates' artwork and writing about caring for their pets.
Sometimes Smokey and Cuddles like to play very actively! Sometimes when one of the kittens isn't looking, the other kitten will pounce on it! We were petting Smokey and Cuddles nicely and gently. Cuddles and Smokey liked that.
Smokey is standing on a classmate's Dad's shoulder. Everyone laughed when Smokey climbed on his shoulder.
