door and empty milk cartons all over the floor”. This is effective as it diverts the way of thinking of the reader. These lines are effective as he ensures that he uses words that create a depressing and gloomy mood throughout the poem then at the end creates irony and.

This creates humour as the reader once again thinks about the many similarities between people and cats and how they had a stereotypical idea from the
phrases.
