Been out of the link for a while, bit under the weather
back up to speed (or at least as much speed as I can get up to these days!)

My cat, passed on a while back, and so this poem.

Ode to a Cat

Black faced
Shorthaired royalty
With a tri-color coat of regal shading
Attitude, all attitude
And enough kitten to entice you
Twelve years in her reign
or eighty-four in her years
yet, it was not enough
so her passing was rough
so there was and will be tears
but we had to stop the pain
as only love would let us do
so I say it wasn’t easy dude
and the memories are far from fading
for the depth of love you see
sets memory’s pace

Sorry to hear your kitty passed on, it was best to not let the cat suffer.

Hope you will return to hail health soon.
