My favourite animal is cats. They are usually small with soft fur. Most of them are orange, black or grey. They have sharp claws and big, bright eyes. Cats are good at climbing and jumping. They can catch mice. They can also move quietly. It’s so amazing. I love them because they are cute and playful.They are gentle and lovely, always bringing warmth to our lives.

范文欣赏
Animals are our good friends. My favourite animal is a lovely cat, Mimi.
Mimi is an important part of my family. She is only three years old. She is quite a beautiful cat. She has white fur, two big eyes, a small nose, a small mouth, and a long tail. She is both cute and friendly. When I am at home, she always likes running around me and playing games with
me. She is so clever that she can take good care of her babies. However, sometimes she is playful and she makes my room untidy, but I don’t mind at all.
I like my cat because she can make my daily life full of fun. What’s your favourite animal?
