"Unlikely Friends"- these TV shows confirm- How animal acceptance helps us learn. _by Poet Don't care if I'm a horse, and you, a cat; no matter that I'm big, and you are small. We both have heads and noses each can pat; I'm brown and sleek, and you, a gray puffball. No matter that I'm big, and you are small, I feel your love while we rub head-to-head. I'm brown and sleek, and you, a gray puffball, though you're a barn cat- I'm a thoroughbred. I feel your love while we rub head-to-head as friendship flows within our beating hearts. Though you're a barn cat- I'm a thoroughbred; such lasting comfort our display imparts. As friendship flows within our beating hearts, we both have heads and noses each can pat. Such lasting comfort our display imparts; don't care if I'm a horse, and you, a cat.
