To be held, to be stroked, to play around with, to spend your days with,

to be loved-

not by someone doing it out of sympathy,

not by someone looking for occasional amusement,

not by someone who would eventually get bored or grow tired of you,

(but) to be owned by someone who genuinely loves you

whom you mean the world to,

however fat you are-

however proud and cold,

however moody and irratic,

however random and excitable,

that (to me),

is what happiness means to a cat.

-------------------------------

today,

happy cat.
