“How we behave towards cats here below,
Will determine our status in heaven.”
Robert A. Heinlein
June is ‘Adopt a Shelter Cat Month’
Cats make such truly wonderful pets
There are so many, in need of our help
We have much work to do for them, yet
Far too many of them, are being abandoned
Far too many, never get spayed or neutered
Far too many, are unwanted, and euthanized
Far too many, today, have little reason to purr
Far too many adults are left behind, in foreclosed homes
Far too many tiny kittens, forced to fend for themselves
Far too many cats of all ages, starving and without hope
It is we humans, who have caused their modern day hell
Cats were once considered ‘gods’ by the ancients
Today, so many humans, ignore their dire plight
There are far too many felines, without any hope
Far too many, are wandering our streets, each night
And sadly, America’s shelters are also overflowing
With felines of all ages, sizes, colors, and dispositions
The month of June, is a wonderful time, to adopt a feline
Please help us, to bring their modern day plight, to an end
