My cat, whose name is Corcho, is seven years old and has an extraordinary personality. He is quite possessive and does not want other cats to be near his human friends. Actually, he slaps them - especially his sister cat Greta. Even though he is not too friendly with other cats, he is incredibly sweet and affectionate with people. He chases almost every person who comes to visit the family home, and does not go away until he has received (and given) a huge amount of demonstrations of love and great care. Not only that, he also enjoys jumping up high furniture, such as the bookcase, the TV and the cupboards in the kitchen, from where he does not want to go down at once! Finally, I should mention his sleeping habits. He likes changing his bed every now and then. If he sleeps on a bed for a few months, he will fancy sleeping in a box or on a jacket for another while - as well as on the newspaper!
The text states "Robert needs an education, and so do you, but you can't be educated in the same way." The dad is saying that an education is very important for both of them.
