What would I do without you,
My precious, furry friend?...
Part mischief, but all blessing,
And faithful to the end!

You look at me with eyes of love;
You never hold a grudge...
You think I'm far too wonderful
to criticize or judge.

It seems your greatest joy in life
is being close to me...
I think God knew how wonderful
your warm, soft fur would be.

I know you think you're human,
But I'm glad it isn't true...
The world would be a nicer place
if folks were more like you!
