Old Cat
by Mike O'Brien
(Christchurch New Zealand)
If you find an old cat sitting at you door
All skin and bone lifeless and sore
Don't shout SCAT CAT before you think
This poor Cats hungry and needs a drink
It may be lost and have no home
So why your place it chose to roam
Old cats are wise and they seem to know
The safest places for them to go
So if you are chosen by an old stay cat
Please let it in and thanks for that.
