Sugar


My cat Sugar is a very nice cat. His name is Sugar because when I was little his name was supposed to be Sherbet because he looked like orange sherbet, but I thought my sister was saying sugar. Eight hours after he was born I took him away from where he was and would try to hide him from my mother. I took him because I wanted him. He likes to sleep next to our stove and on top of my toad's aquarium. At night Sugar sleeps on me. Sugar knows how to go up and down ladders, likes to stalk birds, and catch and use mice like toys. One amazing thing that Sugar did was catch a finch that escaped from its cage. One night our finches escaped from their cage. We caught one of them but the other one we could not find. In the middle of the night he caught the other one and brought it to my mom in her bedroom. She saw him with it and yelled for him to drop it. She thought it would be dead. He let it go with a disgusted look because it flew away. He knew that we were looking for the bird and he was just trying to help. I think he is a great cat.
