NINE CANS IN THE CUPBOARD

(As opposed to “Pennies in the Fountain”)

Nine cans in the cupboard

Of cat food sit waiting…

For adoption papers

And celebrating!

–

A litter pan in the bathroom

With a slightly used scoop…

Waiting for the “joy” of

Cleaning kitty poop!

–

Finances are wanting

For even a “shelter” cat…

When in an apartment,

There’s little chance of getting around that!
