At the Hospital
After 24 hours
of hard core pain,
I finally got
the medicine
I needed,
but no matter
how stoned
they get me,
sending me in
for a CT scan
still did not
convince me
to take
medical advice
from a cat.

Computer Aided Tomography has now been shortened to CT
Apparently many patients thought a feline scanned them
Which all felines do when they meet you
Assess you for what you may be used for
In this case, it was an emergency
A cat would not do
Only machinery
Let us hope
You are well

I've learned that in fact felines are not pets but rather beings that you invite into your life to coexist and share a space. I have a special fondness for all felines, whatever their topology. As it was, it was the feline running the CT scanner who was the most helpful, so I guess you could say she was a cat's cat. She's the one who noted my hairball.
