My Cat Xyla

My cat,  
Her name is Xyla  
Now i know what you are thinking    
"Oh like a Xylophone? "  
But stop right there  
That,  
My friend,  
Is not where it began  
   
You see,  
My Xyla  
She is named after a Chinese woman  
I once saw walk into my place of work  
The name stuck ever since  
   
Then one day I get a kitten  
And she is the most amazing gift I could Have asked for  
My first pet  
And I love her dearly  
   
Haha, but she is, in fact a feisty one  
Her anxiety towards people is high  
But she loves her mommy dearly  
She is such a sweet heart in my eyes  
That is my baby girl  
And I would protect her with my life  
   
I love to watch when I call her name..  
Sometimes I will call her  
Zye or  
Zye Zye  
And gosh the way her ear twitches  
Looking up at me  
With her lovely deep kitten eyes  
She loves me  
And I love her  
The name just fits    
   
Even if she is a jerk sometimes  
I will ALWAYS protect my baby girl  
From anyone who wants to cause her harm    
That is in fact,  
My baby girl  
And she ain't goin know where    
   
So there is a lot to say on my cats behalf  
But I should really rap this up by saying,  
I love my baby girl so so SO much  
Watch me protect her with all I got  
Without a second thought
