Crazy Cat Lady

There is an old lady with over a thousand cats.
They are so cute they take your heart, forever playing about the house
with a stuff mouse.
She is known as the Crazy Cat Woman.
In love with cats their close to her bosom, treats them like they were human.
Everyone thinks she is Looney as a bat,
but around her house, there isn’t a rat.
All so spoiled and fat, they all have their own mats.
She's given the cats the run of her home.
They are never allowed out at night to roam.
However, you can bet that they all dream of mice and rats.
Her home doesn’t smell like a rose,
to get close to it you have to hold your nose.

When time to feed them, they all go into a feeding frenzy.
With a loving smile and her gentle touch they all fight for her attention.
All starving for affection, she brings such satisfaction, I have to mention.
They're so many and counting, all under foot she is in a world of ecstasy.

Cheryl Hoffman January 15, 2018 at 8:36 PM Love the humor in your crazy cat lady poem Eve; especially the part about getting close to her home and holding your nose…so funny! Good luck in the contest!~Che :)

Sara Kendrick January 13, 2018 at 3:53 PM Well, enjoyed reading your contest entry. It seems like a good contender to me..Way to go for the contest. That would not be how I would want to live. One cat is plenty really too many.Thanks for the visit to my page..Sara

CayCay Godwin January 13, 2018 at 11:01 AM I have had and still have true love for many special cats who shared/share my life, but that many - just looking at that many, had an ill-freak effect on me. Something about it is just wrong. And stinky. Good to know that she truly cares for them and loves them. I get one cat's name confused with my son's, I wonder how she does it! An enjoyable read - and obviously most thought-provoking to this reader! Blessings, Eve, not cats, Blessings ... CayCay

Andrea Dietrich January 12, 2018 at 7:19 PM Very well done on your crazy cat lady poem. Some I have been reading are so wild, they make MY crazy lady look very tame by comparison (I have not posted it yet though)

Harry Horsman January 12, 2018 at 9:08 AM Don't know about the old lady, but the poetry is wonderful.

Richard Lamoureux January 11, 2018 at 8:24 AM My oh my, heaven for one would be hell for many other. Perfect picture as well.

Demetrios Trifiatis January 11, 2018 at 7:26 AM I know some people like that but not with so many cats but the same effect ! A good honest writing my friend, Eve!

Silent One January 11, 2018 at 6:33 AM Damn sounds like a lot of cats.. Would be a nightmare to clean though..
