Last Monday my cat Gabby (12) passed away from Hepatic Lipidosis.
My mom wrote a book of poetry that I liked to read to her as I was feeding her and I'd like to share 6 poems from the book. The poems are from "Snapshots Along the Way - A lifetime of Poetry by E.V.Melotte"
Here is #1
A kitten comes calling (Sugarfoot #1)
A kitten came calling, all scraggly and thin,
she cried at the door ‘til we let her come in.
Once in she went running and searching about,
found the dogâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s dinner, ate it, and wouldnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t go out.
So we made her a litterbox, gave her a dish,
stocked our cupboards with small cans of chicken and fish,
and tried very hard to convince our friends that
it was our own idea, adopting a cat.
