    In line 4, Cat.java, replace the ")" with a "}". New code looks like: File 2 : Cat.java public class Cat extends Animal { public String noise() { return "meow"; } }

    I think you also erred here:: public String noise() { return "back"; } Shouldn't it be... public String noise() { return "bark"; } ?
