    I wrote a poem dedicated to everyone whose cat has passed.

    They tip toe into our lives
    We are unaware of how deeply they affect us.
    Slowly they weave a web around our heart
    Until it is completely theirs.


    What is it about 10 pounds of fur
    That makes us so happy?
    How can those little sounds
    Be such music to our ears?


    Their whole entire life
    Be it short or be it long
    Is devoted to the human
    Who showed him unconditional love.


    We grieve so deeply
    When our friend needs to leave,
    We wonder why now?
    Can't we hold him just a bit longer?


    But you will always hold him
    in a place in your heart,
    A place so special, that would not even exist
    If it were not for the love of your cat.

    Oh Jen, not only are a wonderful Meowmie, but you're talented too! What more could furkids want??

    That's just purrrutiful!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Oh! I'm sitting here crying now. So touching, Jen!
    I'm sometimes asked "Why do you spend so much of your time and money talking about kindness to animals when there is so much cruelty to men?" I answer: "I am working at the roots." -George T. Angell, reformer (1823-1909)
