Samuel L.Clemens,also known as Mark Twain,started off his writing career(事业)in 1865 with his big hit story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County—a story-within-a-story told to a listener by an old California miner (矿工).From that day on,the works of the great humorist always had different animals.
Some members of Twain's literary animals were based on real animals,such as the Clemens family's named pet cats.Some were imaginary,like that celebrated jumping frog.
As a boy in Missouri,he got pleasure from knowing the animals of the woods;in old age,he felt a deep relationship with the animals large and small that he met in his travels.His cats,family dog,horses,donkeys,and calf also won his three daughters' love at their Hartford home.On March 22,2018,to mark this part of Twain's personal life,The Mark Twain House & Museum opened a new exhibition,Tails of Twain:How

Animals Shaped the Man & His Work.The exhibition was rich with exhibits from the museum's collections.
The king of the animals in Twain's world was the cat,“the only creature in heaven or earth or anywhere that don't have to obey(听从)somebody or other,including the angels.”He was known to be the proud pet parent of 19 cats during his childhood.As an adult,the Clemens home always had a named cat.Even on vacation,the Clemens family borrowed cats from locals to live with them.Dogs were considered second-class pets,but Twain liked them.Twain once wrote an ode(颂诗)to his dead dog Burns:“She lived a quiet harmless life in Hartford...”
In true Twainism,humans were not as loved as the“Higher Animals”.Even the most low-down animal,however,was superior in Twain's eyes to “the human race.”After all,he did write once“Of all the animals,man is the only one that is cruel(残忍的).”
