One that's by your side 

Day and night

The purring he never stops or tries to hide

He's happy when I come in sight

To visit or spend time with me 

Hours on end 

 

He meows when he wants mt attention

So I give him a hug and kiss

As I pet him

And in return he gives his loving affection

 

Tops has brough me joy

And will always

He will stay in my heart

Forever and until my dying days

He's so precious from my mind he won't part

 

Everyday I go to work and call his name 

He comes running my way

He's so funny when I play the string game

Tops is truely a great friend

I tell him that everyday

I will love him till past the end 

 

I will never forget

How he curled up in my lap to fall asleep

Thank you God for a special friend I met

He means so much to me 

 

I wish I could keep him forever

I don't want to set him free

But no matter what we are in our heart

We are together 

 

He's my best friend

I ask of you God to protect

And make sure he gets all the love I send 

Because He's my friend

One that's purr-fect
