My Cat

(This is a true story)

When I had my cat neutered, he didn't seem to want to wake.
He appeared to be lifeless and my heart was about to break.
When he sent him home, the veterinarian said he should've already came 
around.
It scared the hell out of me because I thought I was going to have to bury him in 
the ground.
He wasn't moving and he looked like he wasn't even breathing.
Four hours later he finally woke up and it was very relieving.
This was very scary and I wish that nobody else will have to go through it.
You don't know just how special a pet is until you think you're going to lose it.
I'm very thankful that Sylvester's life didn't end.
He's more than a pet, he's my friend.
