Some men like dogs best．They give them food and water and beds to sleep in．Dogs love to take walks．Most dogs can learn tricks, like catching a ball or rolling over and so on．
Most children like cats best．They like to play with them．Cats like sleeping very much so they spend much time on sleep．Especially after people keep them as pets, they don’t have to look for food themselves and even some of them are scared of mice．
