22．Dear Kimmy,
　　Guess what, we have a class pet! It's a hamster. Miss Lee showed us how to take care of our new furry friend, Tobin. She explained that her own hamster had given birth to three pups and Tobin is one of them. Needless to say, we were delighted and promised to be responsible pet owners.
