Purrfect Answer

Why do you want me to take you back,
If I neglected you and favored the cat?

Why are you down on your knees, in tears?
Hey there goes Fluffy. Here kitty kitty, come here.

Oh what a good kitty you are. Do you want your ears scratched?
Does that feel good? Wait. What was that question she asked?

Hey. Where did she go? Did she get up and leave?
Ah well. Let’s go get you some tuna to eat!

Reminds me of my late cat Bilbo. I miss her. You capture the essence of having a cat quite well in your ode. Peace & blessings Matthew Anish
