Shelter Moms take to their hearts Those hungry, wondering strays.
Those voiceless little creatures Someone else has thrown away.
They care for them, then give them love They hug them every day.
But sometimes they're beyond her help And quietly slip away.
She keeps their little faces Tucked away deep in her heart.
And one day many years from now From this world she will part.
You've heard the thunder in the skies While the sun is shining brightly.
Or it may be in the winter When the snow is falling lightly.
That was not thunder that you heard But a thousand little feet.
Running across the Rainbow Bridge Their shelter Mom to meet.
They rush into her waiting arms She hugs them everyone.
While the world stands still and questions
Why there's thunder with the sun

(I found this poem online and thought I would add it...along with a photo of my Ferret shelter mom Donna...this is the photo I took of her and my Cali the day Cali left her to come and live with us "forever"...
