I’m here to say I love my friend
And on this day to her I send
A ton of love and what is more
She’s always been one I adore
Behooves me now with joy to say
I hope she has the best birthday
A break from all the toil and work
Is quite the favoured birthday perk
But often round her feet have scampered
Cats expecting to be pampered
I think they owe her, on this day
Respect her space, stay out her way
Her meals be lovingly prepared
No effort on this dare be spared
Her back massaged, her hair be brushed
From task to task she not be rushed
And at the end of day she curls
Under a sky with stars like pearls
In downy bed with all the space
No furry butts or paws in face
Her life all year her comfort’s spurned
A day as cat she’s justly earned
For people love to be spoiled too
And it’s the least that they can do…
