I know how this kid feels because I used to believe in monsters hiding underneath my bed, and being afraid of the dark. The way you explained the cat in detail was good because it gave the reader of the exact type of cat, not just telling us there was a cat in the house. You are good with details and allowing us to visualize what is going on in the story and we can put ourselves right in the middle. This story was realistic and believable because parents usually don’t think their kid sees monsters. Well..this kid did. I liked how you brought the monster into the story and explained what he looked like because I have read so many stories where the monster appears but is never explained.
