A little furry stomach, dropped off at my door,
“There’s no way that I’m keeping her!”
I’ve said it all before.
She was mischievous and curious from the very start.
She got into everything… yes, even my heart.
She brings me presents all the time – whether live or dead
and just to show her love, she leaves them on my bed.
She can bring smile out anytime. She is such a hoot.
She’s orange with four white feet. Of course, I named her Boots.
Author notes
True story… She’s older now but just as mischievous (LOL)
