    Felis Catus 
    is your taxonomic nomenclature 
    An endothermic quadruped 
    carniverous by nature 
    Your visual, olfactory, 
    and auditory senses 
    Contribute to your hunting skills 
    and natural defenses. 
    I find myself intrigued 
    by your sub-vocal oscillations 
    A singular development 
    of cat communications 
    That obviates your 
    basic hedonistic predilection 
    For a rhythmic stroking of your fur 
    to demonstrate affection. 
    A tail is quite essential 
    for your acrobatic talents 
    You would not be so agile 
    if you lacked its counterbalance 
    And when not being utilized 
    to aid in locomotion 
    It often serves to illustrate 
    the state of your emotion 
    Oh Spot, 
    The complex levels of behavior you display 
    Denote a fairly well developed cognitive array 
    And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend 
    I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.

    As someone who grew up in a conservative family in a religious town and is now liberal, there is a wide spectrum of bigots. Some of them would happily enact halocaust 2, and some of them just get nervous when they see a black person on the street at night. I have a number of family members that fall in that later category.
