WITH APOLOGIES TO DR. SEUSS on National FERAL CAT DAY 2022
There are zillions of cats who have no home.
Some just hang around, while others like to roam.
Some are just lost and others are found,
by humans who leave kibble and chow on the ground.
Some live in barns, some live under houses,
some chase through fields after fat, juicy mouses.
Some are so shy they won’t come to eat,
and need to be tempted with tidbits of meat.
These cats all make kittens – dozens or more.
And the kittens they’ve made just make more who make more!
We call these cats “feral “--cats who don’t have a home,
cats who live in the street, cats who go out to roam.
So we trap ‘em and take ‘em all to a VET –
That’s an animal doctor who takes care of your pet.
The girl cats are spayed and the boy cats are neutered,
Before they’re returned, they’ve had shots and are speutered!
We build shelters to house them or find homes in a barn
So they’re out of the weather and kept safe and warm
Your support is essential, so we just want to say,
WE THANK YOU, as we celebrate, FERAL CAT DAY!
