Empathetic Faerie Teaches Ebony Cat a Better Way

Ebony Cat went from person to person demanding love
He hit them, smacked them, scratched them, spit from above.
The more he tried for attention, the more annoyed they got.
He stayed in a kennel so long, he thought he would rot.

An empathetic faerie who had a love for cats saw this.
When she came to help him, he met her with a mean hiss.
You have a lot of love to give, she said. Let me show how.
By the time she was done, he was adopted with a happy meow.

Some children need to know that a better way makes it easier for them.
