The largest country in the content had a tradition. To show you were ready to command the household, you must show gentleness, tenderness, and care through raising a cat. You reared it while it was young, slowly feeding it milk. Than you help it grow.
You watch it till it dies of old age.

Past the corpses of some guards and nobles.
No human he sees is alive.
He hunts birds in the meantime. Ravens and crows scavenge the dead. The cat, unmoving. unbreathing, without smell to alert the birds or foot falls. It hunts like it body tells it to. It leaps, claws out like countless daggers digging into the large crows flesh. The cats mouth bites on the neck. But that is where instincts stop. Its mother never taught it how to kill.
A strange new feeling. Like water running down its throat. A odd feeling of feeling something rush through the body. The cat does not panic, it is new, but not painful. The feeling rushes out. threads of awareness connecting to the dead. It ignores them as well. The cat bites the neck of the bird harshly, and feast.
Without rest. He hunts the empty fields. Without mercy he kills and consumes, littering the gardens and grand roads in the castle. Corpses of birds, squirrels, rats, other cats, small dogs. Anything his claws and teeth can end, the ground has a body of that animal.
The world grows cold, but he does not feel the bite of the wind.
The wind grows warm, and he sees a human for the first time, in what feels a very long

The atmosphere becomes eerie as Nick, the narrator, notices a “silhouette of a moving cat” (5). A silhouette of a cat is almost always the beginning to a mysterious night.
After her mother was executed Elizabeth's life became drastically different. She was more than likely to young to be very affected by her mother's death but her life still changed dramatically, when her mother and father's marriage was annulled she was stripped of the title "princess" and she became Lady Elizabeth. Aside from the rough start to her life she was very bright child, she declared "how haps it governor, yesterday my Lady Princess, today but my Lady Elizabeth". Within a couple of days of her mother's execution Henry VIII married Jane Seymour, [who was Anne's maid of honour] who finally gave Henry VIII what he was asking for a son (Edward).

The creature is essentially human because he has feelings and emotion just like any other human. When this creature first speaks out about his early life he claims to be "benevolent" and that his "soul glowed with love and humanity" (83). The creature states that when he became alive he showed love and kindness just like any human being. The creature shows various human traits.
He is aware of his otherness and knows that he is “shut out from intercourse” (84) with the people he holds so dear. It can be argued that this is the point where the creature’s humanity is the strongest throughout the course of story. He has a basic understanding of human societies, he speaks and reads their language, shows compassion and, most importantly, seeks their company and friendship. In his knowledge that social belonging is the missing component to his own happiness, he confronts the people he secretly observed only to, once again, be met with fear and anger (94-95). He comes to realise that he
The story continues with an event that is unfortunately far more terrible and unexpected than the previous events. The narrator allows his increasing anger towards the second black cat to lead him to killing his wife. His temper and hatred that began with the second black cat eventually ended up impacted him and his wife. The narrator states, “I withdrew my arm from her grasp and buried the axe in her brain. She fell dead upon the spot, without a groan” (Poe 5).
The author increases the feeling of anxiety in the story by using foreshadowing. For example, after the narrator obtains the second black cat, he notices that the white patch on the second cat’s chest is forming into something. When the narrator realizes what the shape of the patch on the beast chest is, he states, “It was now the representation of an object that I shudder to have—and for this, above all, I loathed, and dreaded, and would have rid myself of the monster had I dared—it was how, I say, the image of a hideous—of a ghastly thing—of the GALLOWS!” (Poe 4)
When the creature first awakens, he is welcomed by strange sensations and emotions he doesn’t understand. He states that it took “‘a long time before [he] learned to distinguish between the operations of [his] various senses (Shelley, 90).’” The creature relates to a child there because
Thus leaving the creature with no guidance and no knowledge about life. The creature is curious and does not have anyone to teach him about what was happening. He is left to figure out such an immense task on his own. One of his first encounters with other human beings, is not a pleasant first learning experience, “...I had hardly placed my foot within the door before the children shrieked, and one of the women fainted. The whole village was roused; some fled, some attacked me, until, grievously bruised by stones and many other kinds of missile weapons, I escaped…”
The creature’s account of his early life shows the extent to which his dreadful encounters with humanity affect his development

Stage 1 English Pre-Studies Close Reading 1. Tim Low, the author of the article Cats: Scoundrels or Scapegoats, talks about many different issues that have arisen over the years concerning the way cats are viewed. Low talks a lot about the fact that cats prey on native birds, however, so do a large amount of other animals. “Birds are killed in forests too, by a whole gamut of predators including snakes, goannas, falcons, butcherbirds, quolls, Dingoes and even spiders.” Low presents his answer to the question throughout the entire piece by giving examples of how and why cats are viewed as scoundrels, but then backing those examples up with why he believes they are scapegoats.
