Although he is not moving, this cat represents acceleration in more ways than one. Let me first introduce him. This is Max; he is my very overweight yet adorable fat, grey, pear shaped rascal of a cat. He loves to run around my house just for the fun of it. By doing this, Max is accelerating in a positive direction. He is gaining speed as he starts his running exploit and then he is accelerating in a negative direction when he gets tired and decides to stop running and sleep for a little while until he is spritely and ready to take on the world. Max's acceleration vs time graph would of course, look like a straight line because the units on this graph are meters per second squared. His v, t graph would look like a squared graph because he is gaining speed quickly.

I liked the analogy that you used, it was clear I could picture it well. Your cat is super cute also :) Good Job!
