Ode to Spot


Partiste querida Spot... anjinho laranja que me acompanhou incondicionalmente durante tantos anos... privilégio ter usufruido da partilha de ti minha querida gatinha aquática... tanta coisa haveria para dizer... quão especial era a nossa íntima relação... a pureza da tua lealdade... o chão sujo de patinhas molhadas... o olhar... por muitos anos que viva, querida Spot, nunca deixarei de te recordar com toda a intensidade de cada momento que vivemos juntas... tantas saudades pesam no meu coração...

Felis Cattus, is your taxonomic nomenclature, an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature. Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.
I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations, a singular development of cat communications that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.
A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents; you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance. And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion, it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.
O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array. And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend, I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.
