Please Get Well, my Friend

Solo does not know I have hijacked her page to write this.

I took you to the doctor, because I found a lump.
Sitting in the office, I felt my heart jump-jump.
We both were shaking and scared, then they tested you,
they came back and said, "Here's what we will do."
I have to bring you back, Friday is the day,
I have to leave you there, I have to go away.
They will put you under, just a little sleep,
Hopefully you'll just snooze and count some mice or sheep.
But, my girl, please wake fast when they bring you back,
I'm dying just thinking about it, I feel my heart might crack.
They hope your lump is just a lump and that you are just lumpy,
it's hard for me to accept the road to health is bumpy.
My soft, fluffy purrball, my constant bestest friend,
our life is perfect together, and I refuse to let it end.
I have to believe what they tell me, that you're really fine,
you're eating well and running 'round, you sweetest cat of mine.
But I am so nervous, this scary operation,
I don't like you to have to go "under" in this frightening situation.
Just know that you'll be on my mind each minute, as I count them all,
I'll be waiting for the phone, waiting for that call.
I'm trying to gather good karma, as much as I can get from the world,
and send it for your biopsy, my special, special girl.

Treats Treats Treats

Treats!
Treats!
Treats, I love to eats!
I love them from my furry head to my furry feets!

I like them when they're chewy,
and have a tuna taste.
I'll gobble them down right quick,
leave nothing left to waste.

I also like them flaky,
and of course piled high.
When I hear the treats coming,
there's a sparkle in my eye.

I'd like one now please,
that'd be really sweet.
I'd be so fluffed out happy,
if you gave me a treat!

I'm in the bed

I'm under the covers, barely a lump,
but if I sprang up, I'd totally jump.
You can barely see me, flattened out,
but if you crawled in, you'd probably shout.
I'm under the covers, sneaky sneaky me,
you'd search and search and say, 'Where could I be?'
I'm in here all toasty and really quite cozy,
the whole thing makes me sleepy and totally dozy.
It's just so soft, I'm cuddled all around,
I purr in here so quietly as I stay un-found.
Beneath the comforter, twisted in sheets,
I curl my tail all around my head and my feets.
So nice just to close my eyes and rest,
here in the bed, it's just such the best.
Just when you've given up, I'll show my whiskers a peek,
and you'll find me and laugh and call me a sneak.
Then you'll climb in and it will get even better,
as we snuggle down into the warm bed together.

Snow from the Sky

The other day it snowed,
the ground, it kinda glowed.
All around, it blowed.
This stuff, I never knowed.

It started overnight.
And came down really white.
It felt really right.
I bet it landed nice and light.

It nestled in the trees,
it didn't go on my knees.
It'd probably make me sneeze,
it floated on the breeze.

I'd never seen snow before,
but I'd like a little more.
It's usually such a bore,
the heat here is a total chore.

I hope it snows again,
I'd get in the window and then
I'd say hello snowflake friend,
into my life, you blend.

Busy Fizzy

Wow, has time gone by,
you can really see it fly!
So much time has passed
between this entry and my last.
I can't say I've done much,
lots of napping in the sun and such.
I've eaten a few cans of tuna,
and run fast from a balloon-a.
I like to watch the birds,
I like when they're in thirds.
I recently found a roach
it did not see me approach!
I splatted it with my paw,
a better huntress you never saw!
I've gotten even more fluff,
you really can't have enough!
I'll try not to take so long
to purr you another song.

Cat Island

I heard my cat-mahm talking
about this special place.
She's saving all her money,
it's a dream she wants to chase.
It's called "a private island"
where no people come to roam.
Just her and me and company
of other cats to be our home.
There will be no shooting,
no plane crashes or bombs.
Simply waves of water
and shade by tall, green palms.
She says we can have as many cats
as would care to join us there.
She'd pack many, many toys and treats
and all the veterinary care.
We could roam the island
and sleep all day in the sun.
We'd be safe from all the baddies,
protected from everyone.
This place, she says, she's dreaming,
but I bet indeed it's real.
Maybe if I save my tuna money,
we can get something for a steal.
It just seems this world's too nasty,
we'd rather be alone.
So we'll keep on sailing,
till we dock at our private home.

There'll be tuna down the mountain

There'll be tuna down the mountain when she comes...
I'll be face down in that bowl having fun...
she promised to be cooking
and you know that I'll be looking
for that tuna in my food bowl when she comes.

Well she's trying an old recipe tonight...
she's very good so I know she will get it right...
When she dumps the tuna in the bowl
the sauce will feed my soul
Oh, I sure do love tuna with all my might.

She promised me tuna as soon as she gets home...
maybe because I stay here all alone...
but for me that is OK
because I say heck, no way
to sharing any tuna, take a bone!

Oh yeah, there's tuna down the mountain really soon!
I hope you don't think I'm a big buffoon!
But I feel my nose puffs foaming
and my whiskers, they are honing,
as I sing my drooly tuna-coming tune!

A Full Food Bowl is Like Heaven

Oh, to my eyes, when I see,
my full food bowl looking back at me,
it seems like a place so great,
and to chow down I cannot wait.

Giving is Good

They say that giving's good,
it's better than to take,
so this decision,
what better could I make?

I've got stars in my eyes,
those stars are all the rage.
So now I've got a bunch
of stars upon my page!

If you can't give them to yourself,
to really show you care,
then what's the big old point
of them being there?

I want as many stars
as in the constellation,
I am not really sure why
I have this fascination!

Stars, so sparkly shiny,
you wish when one does fall,
oh, my pretty stars,
I want to have them all!

Where I Love to Sleep

That purrfect place for me to sleep,
Not at your head, not at your feet.
Not sure how to explain just what I mean,
All I know is it feels like a dream.
Not under the covers, no, on top,
I sneak in through the night and down I drop.
I snuggle in to the crook of your knee,
We sleep in peace so happily.
“A little brown ball,” is what you say,
when you see me in the light of day.
I know you like when I’m sleeping there,
It says to you that I really care.
Sometimes I’m pushy if I can’t get through,
Sleep in the right position, you must do!
I’ll guard the bed and the whole room,
As night succumbs to the silvery moon.
Pressed up tight where your leg bends,
I dream and dream the night never ends.
