Knew him a year,
Cared for him nine months,
His human in January was going to put him down,
Boots had cancer,
The vet said he’d outlive his cancer I had no idea what that meant,
Oppinionated,
Loved eating,
Had become a fast eater,
Grew stronger,
Was even fun,
Still played even in old age ,
I believe bodues change,
But within we remain still children,
Boots was nearing seventeeen,
A Black and white,
Tuxiedo cat,
Found him last night gone,
His human asked how!
I didn’t say it but think it now,
It was just his time,
