I Have a calico cat very quiet and shy
He disappears when my friends stop by They tease and ask, does he meow or cry Are we ever going to see this little guy
His toys are scattered around on the floor I have padding on every corner and door
When you are here in his invisible presence
Things to know to make your visit pleasant
Sit still and be calm so he can get to know His instincts will tell if you're friend or foe He'll grab at your foot from under the couch Then grab the other before you can say ouch
Time has passed and my cat’s doing well He now wears a collar with a little bell So when he hides he’s not so hard to find Such a blessing cause he hides all the time
I don't let him out to play in the warm sun It’s hard for I know he would have such fun He bumps into chairs and walks into the wall He doesn't know which way to go when I call
I've had my cat now for quite a few years When he leaves I will shed many tears He has been a handful but I don't mind My precious little calico cat is totally blind.

A poignant write Eileen.
Hello and thank you for reading and commenting.

I have never had a blind animal, dog or cat, but I feel that because of your masterful writing, words and rhymes, I can relate
thanks
Good day , I have two cats that are over ten years old, neither one is blind. I just seem to write many poems about many things to do with cats because I love my two so much. Thank you for your always wonderful input.
