Barn Cat Starts Therapy Practice, Specializes in Livestock with Anxiety and Guilt
Ma brought Sheep in with silent shame,
“She’s weepin’ over wool and blame.”
Pa said, “Pig’s been feelin’ weird,
Ever since he skipped last beard.”
Barn Cat purrs, then scribbles notes,
Prescribes two naps and herbal oats.
Cow confessed she fears the dark,
And dreams her milk turns into lark.
Chicken flinched from sudden clucks,
Rooster’s snore gives her the yucks.
Goat’s on meds for biting posts,
While Duck sees ghosts and boasts of toasts.
Preacher joined to heal the herd,
But left mid-session, deeply stirred.
Barn Cat’s calm with tail and tea,
Says “Guilt’s a worm, just let it flee.”
Now livestock line up, week by week,
For feline Freud with a prairie beak.
