I once had a cat, I thought it a he, But it was a she, and then she got fat, had lot of kittens of which I was smitten, Then the kittens had kittens, And I lost my smitten, Oh by the way, would you like a cat, Maybe two, maybe three? I’ll give you a he, But if it’s a she, I’ll swear it's not fat, Hey, what do you say? |

"I know how you can fix the problem" that's the same thing my wife said after the birth of the twins, and I still am having nightmares and fear the snipping of scissors... [This message has been edited by Tim (09-18-2002 02:01 PM).] |

Once? I was one half of socks-- until they needed wash. They put us in the dryer--then? I'm not quite sure which one is lost... (toss me a towel will ya...feeling nekkid here) sigh... purrrrrrrrr.......... (serenity exits, licking her paw, and her other paw, and her eyebrows...and...OH. damn..they were watching. grin. I-didn't-do-dat.)  *sneaking a lick on paw* hiss |

Tim Sounds like Sunshine's solution is a bit too late. I had the same problem once with my kids pet rats...sigh, but that's another story. Loved the smile in this, by the way. |

The dogs killed both of the stray kittens living next door that we were taking care of. Believe me, Tim, snip snip is a wise alternative to two graves. Mike [This message has been edited by bsquirrel (09-19-2002 04:32 PM).] |

The first few lines took me back to a quartet of kittens I once had on the farm... Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail and Peter (don't blame me... my Mother named them.) You might know the one specific-gender named cat just had to be a girl? LOL Peter was the proud mama of the next generation the next spring. *G* Sounds like you need to find you a good vet with reasonable prices. *G* This is delightful! |

I'm afraid LittleLady wouldn't like it if I took one. She gets jealous. She can't have kittens and sees no reason why anyone else should.  I enjoyed your poem.Nan(Pilgrim variety) |

Tim, Great poem. I had the same problem, I thought my kitty was a girl, but then took her to the vet and found out otherwise. So from then on Cloey became Clovis.  |
