The Cat is laying flat stretched out And cocks a lazy eye A fluffy ball of fat and purrrrs’ He lets the world go by The fireside warmth is all he needs To while his life away A contented house and maybe a mouse To stumble past his way And then the Cat’s electric charged A torpedo made of fur With ears laid back the swift attack His claws a sweeping blur But the slim fit mouse new to this house Runs an aerobics class Beneath the stairs he swings on chairs And drinks minerals by the glass And so he moves with speed and grace To safety and thanks the Lord And the poor fat cat has squashed his face Against the skirting board Now ‘Tiddles’ knows the rules are new He could feel his ego sag So now the cat lies on the mat And eyes a fitness mag Jon Mewett All these moments In time Will be Lost Like Tears in the rain [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 11-06-2001).] |

HAHAHA, this is outrageously funny. I've known a couple of cats like that, but they never had that kind of a challenge. Good post, made me laugh. I'll have to save it and share it with my sister the masochist (sorry sis) who has 35+ cats. |
