"Just a Cat"

From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a cat," or "that's
a lot of money for just a cat." They don't understand the
distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a
cat."

Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a cat."
Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a cat," but I did not
once feel slighted.

Some of my saddest moments have been spent with "just a cat," and in those
days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a cat" gave me comfort and
reason to overcome the day.

If you, too, think it's "just a cat," then you will probably understand
phrases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise" or "just a promise."

"Just a cat" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and
pure unbridled joy.

"Just a cat" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better
person. Because of "just a cat" I will rise early, take long walks and look
longingly to the future.

So for me and the folks like me, it's not "just a cat" but an
embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond
memories of the past, and the
pure joy of the moment.

"Just a cat" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from
myself and the worries of the day.

I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a cat" but the
thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a person."
