Laura, sorry...

Ian Anderson wrote a song called Old Black Cat. It's a beautiful, touching song. The song is available on you tube. [I didn't post it because it's a tear jerker. I don't want add to your burden.]

The Lyrics by Ian Anderson :



My old black cat passed away this morning
He never knew what a hard day was
Woke up late and danced on tin roofs
If questioned "Why?" answered, "Just Because"

He never spoke much, preferring silence
8 lost lives was all he had
Occasionally sneaked some summer dinner
He wasn't good and wasn't bad

My old black cat wasn't much of a looker
You could pass him by, just a quiet shadow
Got pushed around by all the other little guys
Didn't seem to mind much, just the way life goes

Padded about in furry slippers
Didn't make any special friends
He played it cool with wide-eyed innocence
Receiving gladly what the good Lord sends

Forgot to give his Christmas present
Black cat collar, nice and new
Thought he'd make it through to New Year
I guess this song will have to do

My old black cat
Old black cat
