This Old Cat by Rita Cockrell Wood, Founder of PurrEver Ranch (A Sanctuary For Senior Kittizens)
Imagine this old cat as a kitten Bright eyes, alert & playful Scampering thru the house Without a care in the world This old cat was loved
Snuggling up to her mistress Whiskers safe in a warm palm Motor purring, arm and tail as one Without a care in the world This old cat was loved.
Headbutts, kisses and eye hugs Warm dishes of milk and plates of tuna Little ways on special days Without a care in the world This old cat was loved.
Back of a hand strokes the face Looking like no other lover Cloudy eyes knowing without seeing Without a care in the world This old cat was loved.
Cold. Alone. Empty plates Howling in the night she searches Strange, rough hands tossed in a box Without a care in the world That this old cat was loved.
Imagine a heart breaking in heaven Promises broken from a life she had given Too busy in a brand new house Without a care in the world That this old cat was loved.
Cowered in a cold corner Stainless steel in a bed of hell Eager humans rush to pretty kittens Without a care in the world That this old cat was loved.
No tears are shed, they tried their best No one wants an old, used cat She purrs and pleads to ears unheard Without a care in the world That this old cat was loved
