Every day is Christmas at the Foster... by Amanda
She said she would volunteer
To help the animals far and near.
Across the valley to the shelter she went
To care for the pets and she said what she meant.
Soon enough, they followed her home,
The fostering begins, with "Uno," all alone.
A while later, his wounds healed, so back he'd go,
To be adopted by a happy family they know.
The spare room wasn't bear, not even a day,
Because Madison and 7 kittens had their say.
The day they came to foster care, Lisa got her new name:
We called her The Cat Lady - Full of Fame.
Across the house and down the hall
All of their names, we'd hear Lisa call.
Vegas, Sydney, Niagra, Diego, Portland, Victoria, Kona .
They each developed their own persona.
They grew and ate and played around,
Down the hallway, up the pole, and on the ground.
They stayed until they each found a new home
All except Victoria, at Lisa's foster care to always roam.
The first greyhound, Disciple, was a long time dream,
But the overall lifestyle didn't fit in the current scheme.
In comes Atlanta the greyhound, so save the day,
But he jumped the fence and had to go away.
There will be a time when life settles down,
And the greyhounds can return to this side of town.
A warm and caring home they will share,
In the life of the Animal Lady's care.
Maggie the lone kitty needed some care
So some alone time she came home to share.
She healed and ate and grew even cuter
And a family she found just to suit her.
The yet Unnamed Skinny Kitties are thriving on milk
They cuddle up, warm, calm, soft as silk.
Their day will come too, the future is near
And a new home they'll have, no fear.
Madison came home just before the holiday
To share more time, this time to stay.
The family she joins is surely a lot .
Boona, Rusty, Martini, Ditto, Victoria and whoever fills the foster spot.
In a house of the foster they share
The spirit of giving, loving, and care.
Every day is a holiday, so hold them near -
And have a Merry Christmas with all you hold dear.
To help the animals far and near.
