Oh yes, I heard them talking,
just the other day.
They thought I couldn’t listen,
to what they had to say:
“She sheds too much; she cries at night,
then sleeps away the day.
We’ll drop her off out somewhere,
get a kitten that will play.”
So now I’m cold and hungry,
struggling to survive.
Without some food and water,
I doubt I’ll stay alive.
I wish someone would rescue me,
and I could hear them say:
“You’ll live your life with love from me,
until your dying day.”
