Transcendental Sonnet #608:
God Bless the Housecat

for Freddie Noodles

To eat and excrete
To be the top cat
To land on his feet
No more less than that

Plenty of cat food
And plenty of rest
Always a good mood
And always the best

Not so much to ask
For one so steady
So firm in his task
Of being ready

God bless the housecat
God knows I mean that

AMEN to that! God bless all my house cats, and my Angel Bart!

I am glad to see a poem about Freddie, such a good boy deserves to be the subject of a few poems!

Love,
Dara

Thanks, Dara; I'm petting him right now, and giving him your love.

I wish you could meet Fred, and I wish I could meet all your animals. Someday we will all meet, I'm sure of that.

Freddie Noodles and I send all our love to all the housecats out there, along with all who love them.

haha your so right my cat died last week.. my old baby was 14... aww it brings tears to my eyes thinking about him. but god call him and he had to answer i guess.

I miss my lil pookie soo much ( Pookie Derbalo was his full name) and I miss him so much its not funny, But before he left, that ol stud muffin left the nabours cat with some kittens... so I still get a lol pookie derbalo Jr to keep his rep!

Thank you for a great tribute to cats! its beyond words!
