                           What would we do without you,
                           Our precious,furry friend?...
                           Part mischief,but all blessing,
                           and faithful to the end!
                            
                           You look at us with eyes of love;
                           You never hold a grudge....
                           You think we're far too wonderfull
                           To criticize or judge
                            
                           It seems your greatest joy in life
                           is being close to us....
                           I think God knew how comforting
                           Your warm,soft fur would be.
                            
                           I know you think you're human,
                           but we're glad it isn't true...
                           The world would be a nicer place
                           If folks were more like you!
                            
                           A few short years are all we have;
                           One day we'll have to part....
                           But you,our boy will always have 
                           A place within our hearts.
