A Cat Lady In Cincinnati

An old lady in Cincinnati
is mean, vindictive and chatty
She has fifty-three kittens
She calls them all Mittens
It’s no wonder she’s frazzled and catty

Heck, I knew a lady who insisted to have 13 (she said a lucky number), hairless cats and a kitty. Man I thought she was absolutely nutty! Robert your Lim is so clever and funny!...ab

I wish I could make a limerick flow like this one, Rob. I can get the syllable counts, but somehow, they never read right. This is fine! Funny!

Gosh! What happens when OL from Cincinnati calls out 'Mittens?' Are her arms just scratched? -- or bruised and bleeding too? Thanks for the chuckle, Gershon
