All To Be Nice To a Cat
Shark my cat is
Sneaking up ….
He pounces.
On my leg.
Ouch!
I heard him
Already.
He has this
Happy yelp
He makes when
He sees me.
I am allergic
To him.
He knows not this.
Only that he wants
To rub up against
My leg,
This means I can
Sneeze my way
Back into the house.
But I am not
Ruining it for him.
He gets little
Comfort from
Humans. Our
Grandchildren
Give him a pet
Once in a while.
But he scares my
Husband, and
KERCHOO!
I am sneezing now,
And my eyes are turning
Red. All to be nice to
A cat.
