I Am Your Cat...
by Donna Norris for Lelani
Do not think of me as an object to bring
you fame in the show ring.
My most prized trophy is a gentle touch from you.
Do not expect from me a new family
of babies every four months.
I love my little ones and want them with me so I may teach and play
with them for many months as a good
mother should.
Do not
keep me confined in a cage.
I
am a free spirit.
Let
me live with you in your home.
Do not think of me as an unknowing, uncaring or an independent being, for I need you.
Accept
me as I am, care for me, love me and be my friend I will give you in return:
A soft touch of my paw on your cheek when
you are troubled,
A
companion when you are lonely,
A
clown when you are depressed
A
trusting, loving, purring being,
Content
to share your happiness and sorrow.
Let
me be with you in our small part of this world for He has created you and me.
Do not think of me as a simple creature,
for I can see angels you cannot see.
I can feel the vibrations and wonders of the Universe you can not feel. And when
the time comes when I will have to leave you, remember, I will always be with you for our spirits are One.
Love me.
Cherish me. Care for me.
I am your Cat - Love me as i am.
