A happy ending?

He used to hang on my every word
Do everything I asked
Be in bed before me
Seems like those days are past
And now I lay alone wondering
What did I do wrong
When did she get him mesmerised
Was it her chirpy song
Cos I catch him looking speculatively
Whilst she preens and pampers all day
I’m surprised she’s not gone bald
The effort that she makes
I suppose I should be pleased
My cat has made a friend
But I feel a tad uneasy
when I think how it could end

 

Last minute shopping blues

I am here when I should be there

Bagging some last minute Christmas fayre

If I put it off there’ll be nothing to scoff

And the cat won’t survive on fresh air

The Cats Tale (Part Two)

I’m so fed up with these new rules
Put in place by the human fools
I used to stretch against the door
And drag my claws down to the floor
But since they threw against MY wall
This stripey stuff
(Forgot what it’s called)
If I even sniff at it
The girly one she throws a fit
And tells the man to keep an eye
on what I’m up to all the time

But when she’s out
He falls asleep
I do what I want
I don’t hear a peep
I sniff and scratch just where I want
Though I do prefer my usual haunts
And when he wakes all bleary eyed
And sees the gouges
Etched with pride
I know he’ll fetch the marker pen
And then they will be gone again
