Do you want to know what pets do when their owners leave for work or school each day? That's the question The Secret Life of Pets tries to answer.

The cartoon movie is mainly about Max, a sweet and loyal dog. He lives inside one of the high buildings in New York. Things are going well until his loving owner, Katie, decides to bring home Duke, a careless, untidy dog from the dog pound　 where lost cats and dogs are kept until their owners come to take them home.

Actress Ellie Kemper plays the role of Katie. “She decides to bring home a new dog because he needs a home but she's very worried，” said Kemper.Instead of welcoming each other with open paws, the dogs can't get along well at first. When the two dogs find themselves on the mean streets of New York City, they have to team up and work together against a cute but criminal(犯罪的) rabbit named Snowball.

Kemper doesn't have any pets in real life. But she says she would like to have one if she has free time. She said, “I don't want to speak badly about cats, but I feel like you can play with dogs more.”“The story is really funny，” Kemper says. The movie also has an important message. “Animals have feelings too，” she says. “That sounds corny(老生常谈的), but we should be kind to animals.”

The Secret Life of Pets hit theatres on July 8, 2016.
