Shadow's Song

I would not be just a nuffin'
My voice all full of snuffin'
My nose all feeling ow.
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-berry
If I only had a meow.

Shadow cat, my little Sammy Kitten (who isn't so little any more) would
like to ask permission to use your song, too. He has no meow. All he can
manage is some soft, short squeaks.

Dan

That's great! Roxy can join in with her little squeaks.

I could walk across the room
Not feeling all this doom
Feelin' very proud
I wouldn't be a'runnin'
Bonnie wouldn't seem so cunnin'
If I only had a meow.


I'd stand up to ev'ry kitty
I'd be all hissy-spitty
In anger or in wow

With the meows I'd be voicin'
I would be rejoicin'
If I only had a meow.


Oh, I could tell you why
Shamrock makes me cry,
I could meow of things I never meowed before
And then I'd sit and meow some more.


I would not be just a nuffin'
My voice all full of snuffin'
My nose all feeling ow.
I would dance and be merry
Life would be a ding-a-berry
If I only had a meow.

He says yes and he is feeling better knowing there are others like him.

I know for a fact that Sammy is capable of a lot more than just soft
squeaks - when I trapped him last July his "help, he's got me, he's
going to kill me!" screams must have been ehard in the next county. But
now that he is settled in as part of the family, all we hear are the
squeaks. Even when he gets really excited about something, all we hear
is "squeak-squeak-squeaksqueak".

Lindy squeaked all the time for about the first year or two. She would
come in from outdoors and run through the house going "yik-yik-yik"
until she found me. Now she has a meow and seldom "yiks" I miss it.

Shadow is incapable of meowing. When he had the feeding tube incident
almost two years ago, the vet mutilated his throat trying to pull the tube
out through his throat. It was supposed to be able to be pulled through the
stomach wall and the flange on the inside should have just collapsed while
it was pulled, but that didn't happen. As a result of her many attempts,
his throat is all scar tissue. I feel bad for him with Bonnie because he
tries to scream at her to leave him alone but nothing comes out and she
must think it is fun to terrorize him. One time I heard him vocalize since
then. He was singing along with Bette Middler to "Wind beneath my wings".
lol He loves that song.
