I lay here musing,
Oh what a week
A dad lost and found
What a relief
And then I find out
My sweet 'lil bit
Is missing cross country
I just can't stand it!

Ingeen I'm no tomcat
I'm a regular guy
With a big orange head
And funny scratched eye
But you, my sweet Ingen
You're my soft furred sweet friend
And my heart is beating
Will it never end?

Adventurous by nature,
Maybe not so
Did Jen tell you? Did you want to go?
Did you dream of mountains,
Or microsoft mouse?
You dissapeared in a motel
On your way to your house!

And Catster friends mobilized
As Catster friends do,
The stripped and the calico
Black, Russian blue,
Old furts and youngsters,
Those elderwise,
Because no one could stand to think of your cries!

And my heart was breaking,
My heart was in two
Because you're my little Ingen
And I know I love you,
So I willed and I chilled and I breathed into the night
With power of the paw to make it be right

And now the words come, ah yes she's been found!
Cowering between boxspring and matteress
Not at the pound!
Ah what a blessing,
Ah my heart's joy
I purr and chase Smokie
and play with my toy!

So Ingen, our cat friends will get you to Jen
Across many miles-you know I trust them.
Ingen, please tell me, when you're all over this...
Could this Pirate Orange Ruffy
Be deserving a kiss?

And now as I climb back to the couch back once more
Anticipating my supper on a plate on the floor
As I sit and I groom and I think as cats do
Of you, Little Ingen for we all love you.
