I LOVE MY LITTLE KITTY
I love my little kitty, she makes my house a home
She always is my best friend, I never feel alone
She makes me smile, she makes me laugh,
She fills my heart with love.......
Did some breeder breed her, or did she fall down from above?
I've never been a breeder, seen life through their eyes,
I hold my little kitty and just sit and criticise.
I've never known their anguish, I've never felt their pain,
The caring of their charges, through snow or wind and rain.
I've never sat the whole night through, waiting for kittens to be born,
The stress and trepidation when they're still not there by dawn.
I've never felt the heartache, of a life within my hands,
This darling little baby, who weighs but 60 grams.
Should you do that instead of this.....or this instead of that,
Alone you fight, and hope one day, he'll grow to be a cat.
Bring joy to another household, and make a house a home,
You know it's all just up to you, you'll fight this fight alone.
Formula, bottles, heating pads, you've got to get this right,
Two hourly feeds for this tiny guy, throughout the day and night.
And in your heart of hearts you know,you're sure to lose the fight,
to save this little baby, but God willing.......you just MIGHT.
Day one he's in there fighting, you say a silent prayer,
Day two then three, he's doing well, with lots of love and care.
Day four and five....he's still alive, your hopes soar to the heavens,
Day six he slips away again, dies in your hands on seven.
You take this little angel, and bury him alone,
With a aching heart and burning tears, and an exhausted groan,
You ask yourself "Why do this?.....why suffer all this pain?"
But see the joy your kittens bring.....it really self explains.
So when you think of breeders ,think what they endure
When you buy our kitten, we have to be sure.
When you buy our kitten, and we have to part
Remember, We pay with our heart.
