Felis Cattus is your taxonomic nomenclature,
an endothermic quadruped,
carnivorous by nature.
Your visual, olfactory, and
auditory senses
contribute to your hunting skills
and natural defenses.
I find myself intrigued by your
subvocal oscillations,
a singular development of cat communications,
that obviates your basic
hedonistic predilection
for a rhythmic stroking of your
fur to demonstrate affection.
A tail, quite essential for your
acrobatic talents;
you would not be so agile if you
lacked its counterbalance.
And when not being utilized to
aid in locomotion,
it often serves to illustrate the
state of your emotion.
Oh Spot, the complex levels of
behavior you display
connote a fairly well-developed
cognitive array.
And though you are not sentient,
Spot, and do not comprehend,
I nonetheless consider you a true
and valued friend.
