A Tribute To Our Faithful Feline Companion...

On December 31, 2009, we had to say goodbye to Joe, our nearly 3 year old kitty, who had been with us through thick and thin. Here's to you, little buddy - We will miss you dearly :(

  1. My cat, my dear and gentle friend,
    As you lay sleeping quietly,
    I think of all the times we spend
    In true and happy company....

    How much joy you bring to me,
    Like sunshine to a winter's day,
    What greater pleasure can there be
    Than to watch you as you play.

    When troubles seem to grow apace
    I tell you of my fears and pain,
    You rub your head against my face,
    And suddenly, all is well again....

    I look at you with grateful heart,
    As in the fire's warm glow you lie,
    The simple joys that you impart,
    No money on this earth could buy....

    My cat, my dear and gentle friend,
    As you lay sleeping quietly,
    I thank you for the time we spend
    In true and happy company....
