My Cat Jethro

I am thankful for my cat Jethro.
So much love between us.
Following me wherever I go,
he has the personality of a dog.
Fluffy, friendly Maine coon
who looks like a big raccoon.
He likes to chew my Dad’s shoelaces.
I love his loud purr.
We talk to each other.
I am so glad Jethro is ours.
