Don't ask how many cats I've loved.
For me the number is countless.
My heart grows daily for each new one I meet.

Some tiny babies, some slowed from age.
The spoiled, the forgotten
Those turned aggresive from a life time of abuse.
Even a pedigree or two.

I've been angry, cried tears of joy.
I rejoyce for each new home.
I will miss some forever, but I never forget even one

Some say I'm crazy, most just smile and laugh.
They don't understand, why I should give so much.
None of that matters.

Each tear,
Each shout of joy has purpose
Each furry little face will look upon love at least once in a life.

That's beautiful -- thank you so much for sharing it. I especially loved that last line -- so true, so true.

BTW, did you write this poem? If so, I'm mightily impressed.

Actually, yes I did. I had it sort of rolling around in my head yesterday & on my lunch break today I sat down & wrote it. Thanks.
