Meowwwww !
~*Marge Tindal*~

This poem has a purpose
that will become clear to you.
Though it's written as a spoof
some may take it to be true.

When someone hurts your feelings
and you're itching to scratch back.
Remember you are just a little cat,
then your claws retract.

For you truly are the 'cat's pajamas',
but the 'cat's meow' if you're bitter.
So turn around, go to the box
and relieve yourself in the litter.

Then when you are done,
go to your scratching post.
Claw to your little heart's content,
for there is no need to boast.

Throw a royal fit !
Meowwww to your heart's delight.
Someone will throw a shoe at you
if you continue to howl in the night.

When your tirade is over,
and you're sleeping by the rail
You will awaken with a fright
when someone steps on YOUR tail.

M e o w w w w w !

What, no cream?

And are you just putting this out here so our resident kitty-kicker will be tempted to come in?  

THAT's what it's all about, right?  This is just a guise at teasing him to come in so we can all jump on his poetry when he starts to bash kittie-lovers....

THAT's what this is....

LOL...

I MISS my cat!  I LOVED my cat!  WHO IS THE CAT KICKER?  Good for you Marge, you bait him and I will bag him, but just a second here...don't you have birds?  Hmmm, and you LIKE cats?  Something tells me this is just a big bunch of kibble with a ton of advise in it!  Oh I so enjoyed this, but I do miss my little calico, she was a nut case.

If I made you smile today then I did my job!
