Question

said, \aha! they must be fattening fast! they will soon be as fat as i wish them to be. aha! what a good thing it is to be patient.\
at last, one day she thought, \surely, now they must be fat enough! i will not wait another day. aha! how good they will be!\
so she climbed up the tree, licking her chops all the way and thinking of the fat young birds. and when she reached the top and looked into the nest, it was empty!!
then the spotted cat sat down on the branch and spoke thus, \well, of all the horrid, mean, ungrateful creatures i ever saw, those birds are the horridest, and the meanest, and the most ungrateful! mi - a - u - ow!!!!\
in which point of view is \the patient cat\ written?
first person
objective
third person limited
third person omniscient

Explanation:

In third - person omniscient point of view, the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all characters. In the text, we know what the cat is thinking (e.g., "they must be fattening fast! they will soon be as fat as I wish them to be", "Surely, now they must be fat enough! I will not wait another day. Aha! how good they will be!") and also the actions (e.g., "she climbed up the tree, licking her chops all the way"). This shows that the narrator has access to the cat's inner thoughts and outer actions, which is characteristic of the third - person omniscient point of view.

Answer:

Third Person Omniscient
