Cats!!!!!!!!!!!

No one has ever had a full title or deed to a cat
If you are nice, some of their time you will get
They only like certain things to eat
You think that you are the boss, need to re-think that
They will let you know who is the boss, so don't forget
You favorite chair will become their seat

A cat has a soul you will never claim
They are as independent as a hog on ice
And a mind that belongs to no one
After having one, you will never be the same
Spoiled now,they used to catch mice
Can make you madder than anything under the Sun

They will let you pet then when they want to
They will scratch you when they damn well please
They bathe themselves, water is the foe
Forget about orders, they are going to do what they want to do
They do lazy with the greatest of ease
When they want something, they will let you know

Not like an old dog that always your best friend
In his eyes you can do no wrong
But still people have a  cat around the house
And that can be a battle to the bitter end
They think that is where they belong
Not at the barn, catching a mouse
