Thanks a lot, teachers ❤! Great lesson 👏! I'm a pet person 💯 percent. I grew up with cats and dogs and they' ve always been such an important part of my life. Responsibilities a lot, but love and cuddling moments even more 😊. So, this topic is definitely about my life). Thanks again and have a nice day!

I consider my self as a cat person albeit i didn't grow up with cats however when i was a little i can recall vividly that swarms of cats came to my home in order to meet with onother cat who reside next to my home i mean my neighbour their sound were audible i can hear their sounds freely then fed them as possible as then i can

[@highlevellistening]

Thanks for sharing! Once people get 1 cat, I think it becomes easier to get 2, then 3, then more!

Thank you for this topic~ If I had watched this a few weeks ago, I could have talked with my friend. 😅 They're native speakers who enjoyed talking about dogs and cats, but I'm not familiar with these expressions. I couldn't join their conversation. Next time I can~~ By the way, living with a cat or dog has disadvantages. In my case, my cat is very sensitive, so I can't take him to a pet hotel or hire a cat sitter. Therefore, I cannot travel after taking care of my cat.

[@highlevellistening]

Nice job using the 3rd conditional! We're glad you liked the episode, cats can be quite timid around strangers. I heard something like 3 - 3 - 3 : 3 days to start exploring a new place, 3 weeks to get used to new people and 3 months to feel comfortable. It takes a long time!
