Paw Prints on my Heart

A domestic short-hair breed cat. Lived his life in full. Born July 2004, died of renal failure in Nov 2010.

Tyler, the gentlest and greatest pet I have ever had.
A cat and yet when you look in through his eyes, a soul.

Tyler...
Greets when you come home,
Meows whenever you call,
Says please when he wants a treat,
Says thank you after eating it.
Rushes into your aid when you cry,
Stands beside you 'til tears ran dry.
Scrutinizes visitors, friends and strangers alike,
Approves of them after a while.
Comes to your feet and brushes around,
Gives a relaxing, purring sound.
Poses when the camera is set
A model cat with some antics, you bet.
Sticks out his tongue or gives a wink
When the bulb flashes, not even a blink.

I have the tendencies to become conceited at some times, being the cat that I am. There's a joke that's been going around amongst animal lovers. It goes:

What is the difference between a dog and a cat?
Answer: The dog says to his owner: you love me, you feed me, you pet me...you must be God. On the other hand, the cat says to his owner: you love me, you feed me, you pet me...I must be God.
