Eulogy to a Cat

Snaggletoothed drooler,
constant conversationalist,
unconditional lover,
Caddy the Cat.

Black as night with a single snow white whisker,
hunter of green beans,
Bald headed baby,
Caddy the Cat.

The boy beaten by women,
world's worst mouser,
Chance Chickadee catcher,
Caddy the Cat.

Death out of selfishness,
Scared and alone,
Sterile vets office,
The end of Caddy the Cat.
