Pets
So what's new in my life,Batman the pussycat.
Four years old,
Kidney failure.
Vet's don't have overnight,
So have to travel to vets.
Then take him to his overnight,
At eight pm do paperwork.
Home by about eleven,
Pick him up at seven am.
Back to vets that don't
open until about eight am.
When I asked how much,
For overnight facilities.
Was told transfer fee,
around four hundred and eighty
Per night, l quizzed " transfer fee?
He doesn't play football and it's me,
Who does the driving from place .
To place, plus it's not my cat".
Three grand later Batman's
Recovering so it's worth it in the end.
