Big Cats and House Cats
This is a tiger. Tigers are incredibly strong and dangerous.
This is a lion. Lions are beautiful to look at, but they are very big and scary.
This is a leopard. Leopards are dangerous and scary, too. They live in the woods and can attack easily.
All of these are called big cats, and people should be very careful around all of them.
They all live in the wild, and they do things that any wild animal does.
They climb trees and sit and look around.
All big cats hunt, too. They look for animals to eat, and they chase them.
This is why big cats are so dangerous. They are always looking for animals to hunt, and to kill and eat.
Their teeth are all very big and sharp.
House cats are a little bit different. They are not as dangerous as big cats.
They like to lay with people.
And they eat from a bowl. They don’t have to hunt to eat.
House cats are lazy too. They lay around a lot.
House cats climb sometimes, though.
Some house cats are dangerous. Be careful around an unhappy cat.
If they go outside, they hunt. But they don’t have to.
And sometimes house cats are scary.
House cats make good pets.
Big cats make bad pets. It is a bad idea to have a big cat as a pet.
