text: Brendan loves cats. He owns 8 cats. He has 7 girl cats and only 1 boy cat. Brendan brushes the cats' hair every day. He makes sure to feed them every morning and evening and always checks to see if the cats have water. Sometimes he feeds them special treats because he loves them. Each cat gets 3 treats. He doesn't give them food like chips and cake and candy, because those foods aren't good for cats. He likes to play with the cats. The cats like to chase balls of paper that Brendan makes for them. Some of his cats have orange fur, some have black fur, some are spotted and one is white. The white cat is Brendan's favorite. She is the first cat he owned. Her name is Snowball. When he first got Snowball she was a kitten. His other cats are named Fluffy, Salem, Jackie, Cola, Snickers, Pumpkin and Whiskers.
