The Stray Kitten

It arrived on my door step,
sweet, innocent,
hungry and sad,
mewing away for some love,

I brought it inside and 
gave it a home,
fed it and pet it
giving it a warm bed,

It showed me affection
curled in my lap
licked me and kneaded me
showing its gratitude,

Time went on
It ate and ate me out of
house and home
taking everything it could

It shredded 
the toilet paper
bit and scratched
and peed all over the floor,

I finally had it
Made my decision to
fix it and declaw it
as soon as possible.
