Cat Crimes and Misdemeanors

Cat Crimes and Misdemeanors Five cats came into town in a 57 Chevy To rob Bank of America with AK-47s They blew in through the doors with a meow Demanded attention…now! No one would pet them Patrons cringed in fear and fell This was no ordinary crime All five were charged with trespassing among other things And that was just the beginning Detectives figured out quite quickly Cats don’t drive old cars, especially kitties Who have no licenses or opposable thumbs So they could not pull the triggers Old widow, Mrs. Peabody, the driver of the Chevy Took her kittens with her for the drive A deposit, the only thing on her mind Thank God it was not a capital or high crime But she and the cats were fined Charged with misdemeanors As for the AK-47s They were toys strapped to their sides for fun Cats only meow. They don’t shoot guns They don't commit crimes That is, not at this time
