Buttermilk Saloon

Ralph the garbage rummaging raccoon, found Nipper the cat at Buttermilk Saloon,
he had been suddenly sadly jilted and bleeding heart was extremely wilted.
Decided to stay out with the toms all night, to avoid a cat lover’s feline fight,
she saw him with her cousin in the alley, witnessed them fondly dilly dally. 

Ralph being the friend that he was stepped in to aid the love sick cat because,
he adopted Nipper at a very young age, found him under thick forest dry sage.
Ralph toted him to the beastly clinic; he was expiring mighty quick,
drank the house of buttermilk twice his size, he passed out, four paws to the skies.

His paunch was pumped of rotten stench, Ralph was sure his waist lost an inch;
from buttermilk he got really loaded, leaving his small belly hugely bloated. 
Ralph was a big brother to Nipper that day, a definite superhero to his fiancé,
who came to her prompt female senses and apologized for her brash offenses.
