Mr. Stubbs by Dale

Cat

Mr Stubbs you were so funny

when I brought you home so long ago.

You talked all the way home

while eating and when using the litter box.

Then when your Mom

Miss Cynders came to live with us too

you didn't seem to have much to say again

until we lost her two years ago.

I almost lost you six months ago

but you pulled through and

I thought we were going to make it for a while longer.

You were almost like a kitten again

playing turning into a veritable shoulder kitty loving and warm.

I guess your heart just couldn't take it anymore

because it finally gave out.

I miss you terribly.

Sleep gently dear one.

Dale
