Warning

WARNING

When goblins go begging for treats,
some monsters don’t go after sweets.
They try to hurt cats,
snatch them just like that!
Keep cats in, curled up in your sheets!

You're right, those people are monsters. Good advice to the cat owners, Jennifer. Do you have a cat?

You must be very good to your cats to have one live to age 16 and one to age 20. I'm sorry you've had to say goodbye to both. Putting down a pet is such a sad day.

Thank you John. I always had cats until this year when I had to put down my two elderly ones due to kidney failure. One was 16 and the other was 20. Thinking about a new one, though.
