They train us professionally, to do all sorts of things
Some patients say, they're sure we have wings
They even have a place, where we can interact
It releases all of our stress, as a matter of fact

When you have nasty tests, when they are done
There are so many in pain, it keeps us on the run
It gets confusing, on where we should be
So many are hurting, we're running to see

We're empathic, to all the pain you're going through
We'll give you comfort, we know exactly what to do
We'll follow you out, when you walk in the hall
We'll be on hand, in case you should fall

We're trained to be the best, and we'll do our very best
We are ready to be by your side, after every test
Did you see that spirit, I know what I saw
Coming to comfort a patient, I'm so in awe

Cats are trained to help in so many ways in
the Cancer Hospitals and many other Hospitals.
They comfort and prolong lives everywhere.
They're trained to do their very best, and they do.
They're a must for hospitals that can afford them.
