I am very thankful to the cat and it always makes me think of the time I was with him.
Five years ago, when my father was dying. I travelled a thousand miles from my home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away, I stayed alone in his apartment. There were so many things to deal with. I was lonely and I hated the silence of the apartment.
But one evening the silence was broken: I heard crying outside. I opened the door and found a little cat on the floor. He was thin and poor. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then soon fell asleep.
The next morning I asked the neighbors and learned that the cat had been left by his owner. His owner had moved away, so the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the apartment, I tried to work out what to do with him. I had something else to do, so taking care of the cat seemed like the very last thing I could do. But as soon as I opened the door, he ran to me and lay by my feet. It was clear from that moment that he didn’t want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father’s best friend.
From then on, things grew easier. With Willis, time seemed to pass much faster. When the time finally came for me to return my home, I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was no way I would leave without him.
It’s been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said I was so nice to save the cat. But I know that we saved each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.

Want to make a difference in your community? Becoming a zero waste volunteer is the way to go!
Join a community garden
So many people don’t know where their food comes from. Growing food by yourselves teaches you the true value of food. What’s more, there is no need to pack the food you grow in the garden. Offer your time to help support a garden in your neighborhood. You’ll get to meet all kinds of people there, and possibly begin a conversation about zero waste lifestyle.
Lead or join a neighborhood clean-up
Usually, litter left unattended（无人看管的） will pollute our water systems. Even worse, any litter （in the ocean or on the ground） can be eaten by animals. This causes them to die of hunger slowly and painfully. Getting a group together to pick up trash（垃圾） around the neighborhood is a great way to combat this problem.
______________
Going to a town hall meeting is a great idea. Because you can see and hear the problems in your community. Besides you may even be able to speak at a town hall meeting as a guest speaker telling other people about zero waste lifestyle.
Organize a zero waste meeting
It’s so important to have a support group filled with people who also love zero waste lifestyle. Although online community is great, it cannot compare to real life support groups. If you want to gather people in your neighborhood to talk all things about zero waste, consider organizing a meeting. Just choose a place to meet （a local cafe works well）, choose a date and time, and put up a notice on the Internet. You’ll get surprises!

①teach himself or herself the true value of food by growing food
