The Mind of a Cat Doctor

"For the Cat You Love"

For the cat you love I will be kind,
I'll give her kisses to ease her mind.
I'd stroke his head to make him purr,
and brush his tail and call him "sir".

For the cat you love I'll stay all night,
to make him better, to make him right.
I'd hug her close and keep her calm,
and hold her kittens in my palms.

For the cat you love I will be here,
and comfort you when the time is near.
A witness to pain, grief, guilt and despair,
a witness to love and how much you care.

a poem by ME, Dr. C!
