Ode to Spot

Felis catus 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 aid in locomotion, It often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

O Spot, the complex levels of behavior 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.

Or maybe Data had many cats all at the same time, all named Spot, but only one at a time was ever on camera.

My wife and I spotted your username and we have to wonder: are you aware of the character named Nougat from the game "I Was a Teenage Exocolonist"?

She is adorable, and if you are not familiar you should look at some of her scenes. Your day will be cuter.

I am not aware, but I will have a look.
