Childhood memory

Childhood memory  I'm always an animal lover even when I was little. I remember that there were always stray cats wandering near my house. I used to buy snacks on the way home from school and feed the cats. I loved how they "mew" at me, seems like that they're talking to me. Feeding them became my habitual activity everyday after school. One day I walked home with a handful of food as usual, however, I didn't see any of the cats. I waited and waited until the sun fell down, still no one familiar shadow. when  I turned around ready to go inside the house, I saw a huge, macular dog in front of me, he barked at me like a dreadful monster. I suddenly realized that the cats are scared away by that hostile  dog next door. Since then, I have never seen cats around the neighborhood. It all became my childhood memory.
