This essay, overall, compares and contrasts cats to dogs in several ways that is thought provoking to the reader and keeps the reader interested into finding out more.

She makes funny statements such as “We are literally going to sleep our way to the top.” She makes these statements to be firm however tells them in a funny way. I can personally see the relation between sleep and success in my own life. I believe she has good reasoning behind what she says and firmly believes what she is saying.

Overall, she talks about an interesting idea in a way that comes across as fun and interesting.
