Rescue haven, a stray little cat front leg mangled, fur all matt. No fluffy toy, this poor wee mite eyes full of trust, denying his plight. Minus his leg, fur closely shorn, cuddled in blanket, cosy and warm. Petted, pampered, he thrived and grew soft velvet fur. A Russian Blue. He rules the roost, this regal cat, his lair… my bed, kingdom my flat. Beautiful beast so much adored, faith in this world, renewed, restored. Fills up my life with sparkle bright, just being near holds true delight. My shadow now this ball of fluff, his trusting eyes, reward enough.

wow, I wish he were mine. My two are pampered but they act almost like I do not exist, and I wish for nothing more than a loving cat like the one I had nearly 25 years ago. I really miss her. Great poem on a cat.

Thank you Andrea, he’s a beauty isn’t he. However he’s not mine, I’m a dog person, I have a five year old papillon and he’s my constant companion. Thank you for reading and commenting. Hugs.
