I have no trees to scale and climb, The shelves in the living room do just fine. I leap from the TV top to the coffee table. I'm glad my legs are strong and able. I make my way to get a drink, Which I get from the pond in the kitchen sink. My den lies underneath the bed, Which is my favorite place to lay my head. A pen cap serves as my entertainment. I have played with almost anything, you name it. |
I nap all day and play all night. I like it best to give my owner a fright. I've never encountered any other creatures Except for my owners dirty sneakers. I have not tasted any mice. My chicken flavored cat food is just as nice. I've never been outside, you see, The life of a house cat is fine with me. |
