Hi there, andres spitzer! You've got the right idea. But the challenge is asking you to do the same thing but without adding the is_hungry as a parameter to the __init___. You've overthought this and added a default value for an argument.

def __init__(self):
     self.is_hungry = True

Hope this helps! :sparkles:

andres spitzer your answer shows expanded thinking! It is only the narrow scope of the checker that prevents your code from passing. Full marks! 💯
