As the Cats Celebrate Christmas

Came home early and what do I see
but two bad kitties in a knocked over tree!

Looking so innocent off they run
and now the clean-up has begun.

I can't stay mad at them for long
but the broken ornaments-that's just wrong!

Love this Deb! My cat used to try to climb up the middle of the tree. Got to love those felines. Best wishes in the contest. Kim

LOL This happened in my home so many times. My late husband used fishing line to tie the trees to the ceiling. Instead of a star at the top of the tree, we'd see a frightened kitty that wanted to get down. Such a cute poem, Deb. Best wishes in Brian's contest. Merry Christmas, Carolyn
