Too many stray cats in Austin!
Emancipet spays and neuters-yet still they breed!
So we pilgrimage to the Town Lake Animal Shelter
to see if we can relieve one cat from execution.
GINGER a legend,LOVECAT our last-
so we stare at loving ginger kittens ,generic tabbies
seek one with charisma and panache!
In the corner of a cage,desolate ,unloved
a scrappy generic street cat stares with ferocity at our staring
THIS IS THE ONE!We take her home-
she fights and bites all the way.A rough life
We keep her inside to play.Slowly she comes to know
she is loved,and does not have to attack.
World of wars outside like that-this cat becomes calm
Over time,she purrs and talks to us.We listen
If this can happen to one street cat
why cannot this happen
for every unloved human?
