A Cat With a Knack

I have a cat 
A real fat cat
My cat is all black 
My black fat cat 
It is a cat with a knack
A true fact about my cat
My fat black cat 
She has a knack to catch a rat
My all black cat brought me the rat 
This is why my cat is a fat black cat
So rats watch your back 
From  my cat with the knack
Or you will become a snack for my fat black cat

Clever writing, Colleen. Did you have in mind your cat saying this warning. It sounds like a fat cat to me. I have a bunch of fat, black cats who would undertand. I like this one. Congrats. Love, daver
