Interesting perspective written by my 14 year old.

From the time I was young I can remember our oldest dog, Chipper.  People claim that cats and dogs are sworn enemies.  Well, Chipper is living proof this statement is dead wrong.  One of my earliest memories is of Chipper, two cats named Marvin and Millie, and me sleeping together.  I was woken up by the sound of purring.  As I opened my eyes, I saw that Chipper was lying on his side with his paws on either side of the two young kittens.  They were happily purring as they drowsed away to sleep.

 

Now that I’m older, I think back and imagine if only humans that think they are sworn enemies could along like this.  What a wonderful world it would be.  There would no longer be a need for war, for that matter there wouldn’t have been the Iraq war.  We as the United States wouldn’t have even thought about Saddam having weapons of mass destruction.  In fact, Weapons of Mass Destruction wouldn’t even exist.

 

If only the world was like the truth about cats and dogs instead of like the myth about them.
