Boots is Big


We had a cat named Boots. The kids really loved him. They snuggled him and petted him. They had a song about him that went like this: ♫ Boots is big, Boots is big, but he is not fat. He is a big cat!♫ Some times he would climb up a tree and not be able to get down! He would meow, then put his front paws out, then the back paws, and then tumble down headfirst! He would meow on impact and start purring. But one day he went off into the world and never came back. We asked if our neighbor had seen him, but they hadn’t. We sure do miss him.
