She explained how she didn’t think that she would be able to go through another loss like that again, her husband persuaded her however to go to the ASPCA and look.

Curiosity Killed the Cat After reading the four short stories, the proverb “curiosity killed the cat” seemed to echo through my head. This proverb is meant to teach us that if you are too interested in things you should not be interested in, you may be causing yourself problems by trying to find out things you don't need to know. If curiosity is used foolishly it can result in a negative outcome, for example, Bluebeard’s wife wanting to find what is in the forbidden room in “Bluebeard”, the heroine entering the forbidden room in “The Bloody Chamber, and Sally who is overly curious and wants to know every detail about her husband in “Bluebeard’s Egg”. In comparison, if curiosity is used wisely it can result in a positive outcome, for example, the woman in “The Key” presents curiosity as something positive in her seminars and encourages the women not to settle for the unknown but to fight for the truth. In the short story, “Bluebeard” by Charles Perrault, curiosity gets Bluebeard’s wife in a great deal of trouble.
The Corrupting Power of Women The portrayal of women in Of Mice and Men is limited and unflattering. We learn early on that Lennie and George are on the run from the previous ranch where they worked, due to encountering trouble there with a woman. Misunderstanding Lennie’s love of soft things, a woman accused him of rape for touching her dress. George berates Lennie for his behavior, but is convinced that women are always the cause of such trouble. Their enticing sexuality, he believes, tempts men to behave in ways they would otherwise not.
Within the novel, Of Mice and Men, the author, John Steinbeck, uses flashbacks, interaction of characters, and symbols to foreshadow conflicts later on in the novel. The past of Lennie and the death of and insignificant characters can be easily overlooked, but are key in foreshadowing eventual conflicts. For example, back in Weed, Lennie had gotten into trouble for grabbing hold of a girl’s dress and not letting her go when the girl was screaming. Instead, Lennie held the girl even tighter because he was scared and did not know what to do (11). Now, Lennie thinks Curley’s wife is pretty.
Many people believe that because of cats’ independent nature, they should be allowed to roam free. This allows them to satisfy their hunting instincts and to function within cat society, one that has its own rules and structure. Some people assert that free-roaming cats are happier cats, living a life closer to that intended by Nature. This is all true, but it is not compatible with modern life in suburban North America. Roaming cats are susceptible to attack by other animals, to trapping by angry neighbours, and most of all, to traffic accidents.
To understand why cats tend to claw furniture and wood work may help you understand them better. One reason is to sharpen their claws and the other is called “kneading” a behavior that is also called “milk-treading”. By kneading the cat is taken back to the good old days when they would knead at momma’s breast to make her milk come down. It is believed they only do this to people they really love. It is perfectly natural for a cat to claw and knead.
Step 4: Simulate the Cross in Step 3 Repeat step 2, except for two mice that are heterozygous for fur color and eye color (BbEe). If you simulate breeding using cards and sticks, both partners need to make cards and sticks that represent the alleles for a heterozygous mouse (BbEe). Don’t forget to simulate ten offspring.

Steinbeck wanted to share what his story was based off of through the title to the readers. The title Of Mice and Men shows how everything can have an end. The title represents this because in the story has many things that don’t go as planned. Many times there is an incident where something makes it so that things take a turn for the worst. When George and Lennie were back in Weed, Lennie grabbed a woman’s red dress and made the girl think that she was being raped.

I hadn’t even noticed the cat coming in until I hear Ashley shout "Mine black cat, Stacy.” Vivian later told me that the cats name is Stacy.
