She was small and gray, and had a tiny squeaky meow. She liked to sit in a hole in the shed wall. Ratona lived for a long time. Eight months ago, she died. I'm not sad anymore, but I think about her often. One day, MamÃĄ was setting up TÃa Teresa's ofrenda, a special altar, for Day of the Dead. Teresa passed away when I was a baby. "MamÃĄ, can we celebrate pets?" I asked. "This is mostly for family, though I suppose Ratona was part of ours," MamÃĄ said. "We can celebrate her the day before," I suggested. Later, MamÃĄ and I went to the market in Puebla. We got paper banners, sugar skulls, and marigolds. On October 31, my friends came over. Adriana brought her dog, Sal. or Salt. She had a photo of Sal's sister, Pimienta, or Pepper, who died last summer. Gloria had a picture of RaÚl the rooster, a pet she had lost. We set up the banners, marigolds. and photos where Ratona used to sit. "Once, Pimienta stole a pound of cheese from our cooler. She got into the trash and ate it later! I have cheese for Pimienta," Adriana said. "My mother makes pumpkin seeds for my great-grandfather's ofrenda. RaÚl jumped up and ate them! My mother was so mad. I brought some for RaÚl," Gloria said. "If someone had ice cream, Ratona went Squeak! Squeak! until you let her lick the bowl. I have ice cream for Ratona," I said. I gave Adriana and Gloria sugar skulls before they left. I thought about funny little Ratona. On the last day of celebrations, my family walked to the graveyard. Everyone from the area came. There were fireworks and even a band. TÃa Teresa's gravestone was piled with flowers, sweet bread, and candles. MamÃĄ smiled to herself. "One day, MarÃa, your TÃa Teresa heard a tiny squeak coming from the grass. It was a little gray kitten. Teresa named her Ratona," MamÃĄ said. She continued, "When Teresa died, I took Ratona. You loved her right away. You reminded me of Teresa." Everyone was laughing and dancing. I was too young to remember TÃa Teresa, but we had both loved Ratona. That made me happy. MamÃĄ took my hand. "I think it's time to dance!" she said.What Pet Should You Get? Introduction. Almost every kid has wanted to have a pet. Pets can make good friends. But how do you decide which kind of pet to get?
