Now in a slouch,
Sleeping on the back of the couch.
A trip to the Vet
Abner was now Abnette!
Can't imagine that,
A hell of a name for a cat.
A sweet girl from the start,
So far not even a fart!
An outdoor cat we thought,
But not what we got.
The best digs from Omaha Steaks,
Dismissed with the season breaks.
When the temp went below,
She came in on furlough.
In to a case by the fire place,
And a dose of Frontline just in case.
It's history as they say,
She humors us each day.
She's a high flier,
Dusts cupboard tops with no wire.
Her eyes are Emerald dust,
Her coat, light mid-west rust.
Rings on her tail and toes.
Everyone meet sweet Rusty Rose!
