Something for the cat lovers, a friend sent me:
'Oh, what unhappy twist of fate has brought you, homeless, to my gate. The gate where once another stood, to beg for shelter, warmth & food. For from that day I ceased to be, the master of my destiny, while he, with purr & velvet paw became, within my house, the law. He scratched the furniture and he shed, and claimed the middle of my bed. He ruled in arrogance and pride, and broke
my heart the day he died. So if you really think, oh cat, I'd willingly relive all that, because you come, forlorn & thin... Well... don't just stand there, come on in!' --Francis Witham--
