Date Posted: 00:22:41 02/01/08 Fri  Funny how I kind of knew, I looked into your beautiful eyes, They still had their sparkle, Yet there was an overriding sense, You Seemed weary, frail, Unable to see the door, Bumping your way through, Skidding on the kitchen tiles, Never once did you give in, Everyday you came to me, Sitting, purring, nuzzling, We became inseparable, My old ’Scruffbag’ cat, Then came the call, The vet was solemn and calm, ‘Feline leukaemia’ He told me, I knew exactly how the story went, Now I sit stroking you on my lap, Gauging your ’Quality of life’, Watching for the tell tale signs, As you purr contently at my love, The next time we travel it will be the last, In a moment of administered drugs, Your head will fall, body limp, No more the smiling, welcome eyes, I will walk home alone, With only memories of a true companion. © Paul Osborne 2008  .
