Another Recent Christmas Pet Story,

In Which I Was Able To Participate;

About Another Compassionate Man,

And a Kitten With a Much Better Fate.

 

 

“The value of a man resides in what he gives,

And not in what he is capable of receiving.”

 

Albert Einstein

 

 

 

I recently received a telephone call

From a Good Samaritan I did not know

Someone informed him that I could trap cats

Would I perhaps help him with one in the snow

 

He told me that his business would soon be re-locating

And he had been feeding several cats in his parking lot

The mother and most of her babies, had sadly perished

Now, there was only one left - a very tiny, frightened tot

 

He didn’t want to leave this one starving orphan behind

But he didn’t know how he could catch her, in the snow

I quickly told him that I would bring him one of my traps

Off on yet another rescue mission, I would happily now go

 

It wasn’t very long at all, before this tiny, frightened, feline was caught

The man was ecstatic and thanked me, and he decided to name her ‘Noel’

I wished him and his adopted white kitten, a most Happy Holiday together

Rejoicing in the fact that one more orphan now had a home in which to dwell

ǁ

Please Do Whatever You Possibly Can,

To Help Homeless Pets This Christmas;

So Many Of Them, Are Still Out There,

Without A Home, Or Any Holiday Bliss.

ǁ

Noel is a nice name for the season, but his cat friends will pick on him for having a sissy name so just reverse it and call him Leon...though with her being a girl, well, it was the best I could do...its early in the morning for me...;-)e
