Cat Rescuer

Cat Rescuer

Comfy Room and comfy chair

Can improve your savoir faire

And a list for toys/debris

And a dose of TLC

Aahh–and here’s a Purr– and you

Truly NATURE’S Payment Due

Then a True Home gets much Truer

Thanks to Cat…and Cat Rescuer.

This page was done especially for my friend Missy Pruitt, who has devoted a great deal of her time and energy to that noblest of causes, that of finding loving “forever homes” for forsaken felines. She is conducting a gala event in the Valley of the Sun this weekend devoted to the furtherance of her cause, and she asked me to compose an acrostic poem for the occasion. It was she who supplied the title that forms the “bookends” of this double acrostic.

Friends, a fine way to reduce suffering and increase joy in our suffering-saturated, joy-starved world is to provide a home for an abandoned cat. Don’t do it on a whim, for it is a lifetime commitment. But I urge you to do it at least once in your life. I did, long ago, and my life was ever after enriched.
