For the cat lovers.


The New Cat

The new cat
Taking soft steps
Inspects every room
Finding the right chair
In which to take a nap


  Siamese Cat

Mysterious oriental eyes
Flicker in the dark
Baby blue by day
Fluorescent madness by night

Dead cat
Stays in one chair,
No others needed,
No balls of hair.

No catfood to buy,
No smell from the litter,
No unwanted kittens,
Dead cats are much better!


(This poem was sent to me from LongJohn, he was having access problems and asked me to post it)....I think it's deplorable...don't you?......Some men have no heart at all!

Septsong....I think this was delightful...personally, I love cats, they're so sweet and cuddly and cute...

Now, Toe... we know you were just doing a favor for a friend... but that kitty-kicking sailor's server is just fine. *G* He just wanted you to get all the flack! LOL.

Enjoyed the poem, Septsong!!! And love those feline critters! *S*

For LongJohn

Show me a man
Who will allow
A cat to sleep in his lap

Show me a man
Who will stroke it's fur
And listen to its' purr

Show me a man
That a cat adores
And you will have found
A real man.

I enjoyed these and thought I'd send along two of my cat haikus
