A Wicked Cat Hater

It must be a wicked cat hater, more capricious than a little bear, who hung you on that long, white hook... how much pain is reflected in that sad look! It must be someone so heartless, not having a bit of kindness... ah, poor cat needing pet's care, I am hoping you'll hang in there! Do you want me to be your caring friend? I'll wash your dirty fur with Baby Shampoo, I'll even get a pink band for your cute hairdo, and spoil you with clothes you never had! Why is the door locked from inside, I hear her laughing as if she were on a joy ride.... forgetting your hunger pangs that to her don't mean a lot; oh, how you crave some canned food on the largest plate! I will knock on that door ten times and moan like a grizzly bear, and demand that she come out and explain her heneous crime: why she has hung you as a puppet that can't breathe and smile; and if her heart is made of stone...it will melt as I say, " Hang in there! "
