Looking After You. I deliver the meal that was carefully timed to coincide with your arrival. You sit in your favorite armchair, its cushions plumped to perfection and settle, thoroughly exhausted, from your nighly roaming. I watch as home comfort gently soaks into your soul and I smile and tell you that I love you. I gently stroke your brow as you drift into sleep. Even knowing that come darkness, you will again be overcome by your instinctive urge to wander. Unable to resist. Yet regardless of your independence. I will forever continue to feed, nurture and care for you. Because with cats, thats just the way it is. by Ven. |

So cute, so true. We are only put on earth here to serve our cats. (at least that's what mine tells me, and hey, I believe her!!) If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I knew you were writing about a cat! I have to agree with Tracey...cats rule, whether we want them to or not. Great write. |

I'd rather have a dog any day, but I appreciate the selfless sentiment and the vividly unpredicted punchline. -MVS "Learn to let go of fear, doubt, and disbelief..." --THE MATRIX |
