Moose Oozed Love
Headbutts and Purring His Specialty
Moose was known for his face. Everyone thought he was grumpy
He just had a resting bitch face
As a kitten he survived a stomach infection that required surgery
Nursed back to health in a house full of kids it was hard to believe he did not run off
This was where we bonded deeply
Our love affair was not as big as his love affair for Bernie our Groodle
My ex always said a house was not a home without a dog
I always thought there had to be a cat to complete that house + animal equation
Moose proved me wrong as he needed Bernie
Time proved that their love was mutual
Although it appeared Moose was running the show as he lined up for Bernie
Bernie groomed his back like Moose was corn on the cob
Marriage went sour and more dogs moved in after Bernie passed
Moose and his buddy cat Andy were relegated to the front porch
Moose hung out and watched the cars and the foot traffic
His fanbase grew and some kids nearby stopped to talk to him and called him Crookshanks
Many other people saw him on Instagram where Moose spoke about politics
He would come to the front of the house when I drove home
Or his love for chasing balls of paper and fetching them….
Moose the lactose intolerant exotic
Your drooling purring headbutts will be with me always
