Cat's Day Out


Cat purrs and stretches in nine directions

There must be something wrong with him

I take it to the vet for his protection

The doctor puts him to sleep....

Temporarily...This poem is G rated

Don't want to kill a little kitty

Doc gives it a shot of whiskey

Cat-nip I think

The cat will be back on all four feet

Real soon he will be ready for petting

The cat...not the vet...(for clarity)

Gold fish make better pets

They don't take drugs or purr

You don't have to buy them clothes

Put them in a bowl of water

And let them swim in circles

Fish go glug

If they gurgled it would be terrible

The cat loves them to death

No one is perfect

I smiled as I read this. We have fish, but we don't exactly have a strong bond with them. Our cat on the other hand, is a member of our family and therefore is really nurtured. Visits to the vet when he is unwell, treats, and of course that all costs money. More than we spend on the fish. And our cat too loves to sit and watch the fish with an eager eye. We get a lot more loving from the cat, but the fish do look pretty. Thank you . I enjoyed reading your poem
