As the human carried me into some den, I clung to her with all my strength and claws.
I knew this place was where she often chose to be, for the smell - her smell was very strong here. It was overpowering even to my immature senses. But I felt I wanted to be here Pleasant drifts of an overwhelming peace and unrequited love were immensely welcoming. I soon relaxed and could not help but release a quiet purr as she placed a fresh container of fish before me. My favorite, I loudly purred. The human then bared her teeth at me, but I felt no threat for I remembered when my mother had told me that this is how they themselves purr. With belly full, I tried to now decide where I should reside. Was it to be in front of the dancing heat that the human had suddenly brought to life or was it with her. There was no comparison So I jumped on to her lap and gave the loudest purr ever. I was overwhelmed by her response, For a sparkle of love radiated in her eyes. THANK YOU , I meowed as I drifted into the best sleep that a homeless kitten could ever have. I love you !
