Your kittens and puppies templates should each only have an h1 and p elements. You need to move the common (duplicate) code into the application template (the script tag that has the <!-- MOVE THE DUPLICATE CODE HERE. --> comment). You'll also need to "Ensure that the application template renders the nested resources."
