The Kitties Under The Stairs-an ode to Rescue kitties- everywhere by Orange Ruffy

A blistering NY day here
The air conditionings on
I stretch out on the floor
The pawrents are gone
And I'm thinking deep thoughts
As an Orange cat can
For we're deep and special
In Mango Cat land

And the Cat House cats wake in their place
Are they less worthy,
Do they have less grace?
I know if mom and dad could bring them all here
they would never know uncertainty, longing or fear

As a little stray, I had a big head
A small skinny body, I was rarely fed
Then I found my mom, and I found my Dad
And in a matter of moments my life turned glad

But why are those felines that get rescued and saved
By shelters and people who are caring and brave
Why are they treated as though they did wrong
As poor step cat children who just don't belong?

I have always been cared for with the best by my vet
I didn't like being there, but They are the best yet!
I know that they see me as more than a cat
I'm a spirit in fur and you can't beat that!

And my rescue friends, in the LIC heat,
You are my Kind, you're in from the street
You all so matter, you're my brothers in Fur
and this orange cat believe miracles occur.

We'll find a new Vet who will see you as you are,
Cats with survival skills, cats that go far
Cats who can do things, Cats they honor with time
Because Elderwise cats, they age like rare wine.

So little kitties, sit by my spot
A story I'm telling to keep you out of the hot
A tale of courage and cunning and fame and renoun
Of formerly ferals who once roamed the town
And found a home of their own, thats special and true
You see little kitties they're a part of you

For we're all furry legends,
we're royalty in fur
We're mircales of nature
With whiskers and purrs.
As Cats we're mysterious, as cats we once roamed
Through Egypt, Atlantis,
The Stars are our true home

Yes, whiskered wee ones,
I watch your eyes close,
In the cool of this room it's safe to doze
Send out your best purrs, send out your prayers
Send out good energy
For the Kitties Under The Stairs
