Cats are mammals that do not like mice. Cats eat lots of food including dry cat food, wet cat food, mice, and lot's more. They often eat their pray such as chicken. Cats will mate throughout the year as the breeding season is running as early as February and as late as December, although the average season is from March, to September. Cats have several needs that require humans.
Aside from needing food and water, cats also need litter boxes, scratching items, toys, and safe snuggly sleeping spots. There are many kinds of cats. There are: tigers, lions, leopards, cheetahs, bobcats, and panthers. I like cats. I like dogs too. Ashleigh

Stingrays are a type of fish that are found in the shallow waters. They bury in sand to hide from predators. Their flattened bodies are joined with there fins their head and with their tail trailing behind. The stingray's eyes peer out from its sides and the mouth is on its belly. Many rays have sharp teeth to eat clams, oysters, and mussels.
When stingrays move, they flap their sides like wings. The stingray's spine, can have a sharp point which includes venom. Venom can be deadly to humans, and which can remain deadly even after the stingray's death. Though if you pet the top of one you will be fine. Just don't touch the tail or the belly. Ashleigh Ducks are birds that can swim in water and walk on land. Most wild ducks eat underwater plants. Some ducks will eat small fish and insects. They also eat grain and seeds. Ducks are freshwater birds.
They like places where the food is easy to get. Ducks make nests which help protect them from dangerous predators. Ducks spend most of their time in warm water. Ducks live in different countries, depending on the species. I think ducks are cute. Ashleigh Squirrels are mammals that climb trees. Squirrels are only five inches long from nose to tail. Others reach sizes to those who are only familiar with common tree squirrels. The Indian giant squirrel is three feet long. Like other rodents, squirrels have four front teeth that never stop growing.
Tree squirrels are seen gracefully scampering and leaping from branch to branch. Other species are ground squirrels that live in burrows where they hibernate during the winter. Ground squirrels eat nuts, leaves, roots, seeds, and other plants. They also catch and eat small animals, such as insects and caterpillars. These small mammals must always be aware of predators. Sometimes groups of ground squirrels work together to warn each other of approaching danger with a whistling call. Ashleigh Jaguars are mammals that eat meat. Jaguars are the largest of South America's big cats. They once roamed from the southern tip of the north to the U.S.-Mexico border. Today numbers of jaguars are found only in remote regions of South and Central America particularly in the Amazon Basin. These beautiful and powerful beasts also lived in Native America.
Unlike many other cats, jaguars do not avoid water. They are quite good swimmers. Rivers provide prey in the form of fish, turtles, or caimans. Jaguars also eat larger animals such as deer. They sometimes climb trees to prepare to jump and kill their prey with one powerful bite. Ashleigh Leopards are powerful big cats that are mammals and closely related to lions, tigers, and jaguars. They live in northeast Africa, Central Asia, India, and China. Female leopards can give birth at any time of the year. They usually have two cubs with barely visible spots. Cubs live with their mothers for about two years.
The mother hides her cubs and moves them from one safe spot to the next until they are old enough to begin playing and learning to hunt. The leopard is so strong and comfortable in trees that it often drags its prey that is dead into the branches to eat. Leopards can also hunt from trees, where their spotted coats allow them to blend with the leaves until they jump out at the animal they want to kill. Most leopards are light colored with distinctive dark spots that are called rosettes, because they resemble the shape of a rose. Black leopards, have black spots that are hard to see. They are called black panthers. Ashleigh Wolfs are mammals. Wolfs have sharp teeth for eating meat. Wolves live in the woods and the forests. A lone wolf howls to attract attention of the pack. Some wolves also howl to send territorial messages from one pack to another.
Wolves are the largest members of the dog family. Gray wolves are the most common of all the wolves that live in all of the Northern Hemisphere. Though they almost never attack humans, wolves are actually one of the most fearsome animal. Wolves live and hunt in packs of around six to ten animals. They are known to roam large distances. About 12 miles in a single day. Ashleigh Chimps Apes and any other species of Monkey are mammals. Bonobos, chimps gorillas, and orangutans do not have tails. Monkeys do. Monkeys live in South, America, southern Asia and Africa. Monkeys most often live in rain forests, such as the Amazon.
Monkeys mainly live in trees. Monkeys hang upside down on vines, and branches. So do chimps. Chimps use rocks to crake nuts open. They also use twigs to get ants in ant holes. Ashleigh |
