Treat Me Like Your Cat

 Treat Me Like Your Cat

Gregg Metcalf (June 11, 2018)

Chorus:

So, just treat me like your cat

And I’ll be happy with that

Feed me till I’m nice and fat

Just treat me like your cat

Verse 1 – Shelter

You brought your little kitty home

Now he sleeps inside with you

Protected from the wind and rain

Sheltered from the late night dew

Verse 2 - Food

Three times a day you fill his dish

His tummy is filled with yummy things

Like lamb and beef and sometimes fish

He doesn’t know the pain hunger brings

Verse 3 - Healthcare

Your little guy never needs to fear

You have a healthcare plan for him

His vet will care for him its clear

No lack of treatment or medicine

Verse 4 - Love

House and home food and care

With no worries he is so secure

All that’s yours you gladly share

The good life is his for all his tenure

Verse 5 – The Homeless

I have no shelter from rain or cold

And I am hungry most all the time

No health care to help me grow old

Loved by no one, few who are kind

Verse 6 – The Plea

So, I have only one thing to ask

I don’t want special treatment man

If you only treat me like your cat

I’d be far better off than I am

Chorus:

So, just treat me like your cat

And I’ll be happy with that

Feed me till I’m nice and fat

Just treat me like your cat
