ex ma cat
I am looking for a home for Ma Cat. Technically she is ex-Ma Cat since I took her to the Humane Shelter a year ago and had her fixed. Since I could not keep her (and still can't) I released her back into the wild. She disappeared during wintertime but come spring and now summer she has reappeared and desperately wants to be loved. She waits for me outside my door, has no fear of others and wants nothing more than to sit on my lap and be petted (contrary to the poem she is not bony and doesn't yowl like a turkey and is actually very quiet). I do not know if she is litter trained but I will pay for all her shots; my only concern is that she finds a nice home with someone who loves cats. I would certainly take her back if it didn't work out, she is too loving a soul for someone to take to the shelter to be destroyed … a fate I am afraid of when I finally sell my house and move to Grand Rapids.
If anyone is interested or knows someone who is interested please contact me at: zachary [dot] jean [@] gmail [dot] com. Thank you!
There is a cat with my noisy stutter.
There is a cat with my bony body.
There is a cat I will steal all her fur.
There is a cat yowling like a turkey.No, muse of poets and daemons, your purr
is the song of comment. Your caterwaul
made my Orpheus weep blood. No, lesser
godling, you come when called. Rain and nightfall
made you slim. The sun fattened you. Yes, squint
as if to say, “I am so brief; are you
mine?” As if to say, “do not go away.”There is a cat with a callused paw print.
There is a cat that coughs, a stonewall mew.
There is a cat; a stray, a stray, a stray.
