3．
I found the black and white cat on my front doorway．He was crying like a human baby．Where did he come from？I noticed he had no collar （項圈）．Who would be so careless？
I went inside and brought out a can of fish．The cat hungrily ate it up and then walked right inside the house．
I wanted to get him out，but I hesitated．Our family never owned pets，but I had always wanted one．
Just then，the cat meowed and jumped up onto my leg．Well，he seemed to like me!Maybe I didn't have to give him back after all!
The cat kept me owing a lot．I knew I had to go to the store and get some cat food．
On my way out，I saw a sign on the telephone pole：
Black and white，very friendly．If you find him，please call us at 617-58463302．We are worried sick．
"Hmm，"I thought．"If you were so worried about your kitten，maybe you should have taken better care of him!"
When I walked into the pet store，I saw a group of kids hanging up notices about this same cat there．
"I can't believe I lost my cat!"a little boy in a wheelchair cried to his parents．"I couldn't get to the open door in time!"
I looked at the notices on the wall．It was surely the cat I had back at home．
Then the truth of the situation hit me：I had stolen a little boy's cat!
Now I realized there was a lot I didn't understand．I tried to explain why I should keep the cat by convincing myself the owners deserved to lose him．Now I saw that it was all a big mistake．
I walked to the little boy．
"I have your cat，"I told him．"I'm sorry．I just found him and fed him．He's at my house．"
The little boy began to cry with laughter．He blew his nose and gave me a great big hug．"Thank you so much!I was just about to put a new collar on him when he ran out of the door．I couldn't chase him!Because of my…you know…my legs．"
"I'll be right back，"I told him．I ran home to get the cat and reunite owner and pet．
