Animals , especially cats and dogs , are often kept as pets and they can be very good friends of humans . Here are two true stories about a cat and a dog .
At Jesus College , Cambridge University , concerns are growing for the safety of a pet cat which has gone missing .
Students and lectures of the college have not seen college cat Benson for three weeks . The 600 students at the college have been asked to search their rooms and keep an eye open for him . The grey and white cat has become an institution at the college . He is officially a member of the college , an honor which includes dining right . He is well known for wandering in and interrupting tutorials .
A spokesman for the college says appeals for help in tracing Benson have not produced any information . He urges anyone who might see that cat to contact the college .
In Lexingtong , Kentucky , a dog , named Jo Jo , was hit by a car . His master Steve Ford searched frantically (疯狂似地)for him but Jo Jo was nowhere to be found . Ford called the local animal hospital to tell them that Jo Jo had been injured and that he was going to bring him in if he could find him . That’s when he found out Jo Jo was already there .
“ He just cheeked himself in , I guess ,”Ford said .
After the accident , Jo Jo apparently(显然) ran about a mile from Ford’s home to the animal hospital . He suffered bruises (淤伤)but no broken bones .
