Cruise Cat Tastrophy

Cicely Catherine Charlotte, Child of a cosmopolitan century, Captain of the cruise vessel Cooling its boilers in the cove. Cicely dispensing catnip creates crazy feline cuckoo climbing, jumping with crack me up comedy, provided free. Conjuring cat creativity catnip can’t cleverly control; calamity aboard a cruise ship. In crystal dreams of cat-hood colors writhe in catnip fields containing cat-antics, a cabal of cat’tastic conjuring cats. Consequentially, the not-so-cute problem cast upon the ships crew causes a great cleaning bill cleaving its way into my cruise line capital when, cute catnip filled kitties cast cat-cookies and crap on the carpets. Cleaning is by no means cathartic; coughed up catnip-furballs, neither. Even worse when cats like eating Cajun food; coloring the ships carpets a saffron red. Crafty cleaners, I suppose could create some conquering detergent but, the cost could easily run sky high, for calamity cat’s cursed ills, so cruise ships might best consider not allowing cruises with cats.

As I said before many times, you find themes that others miss..a sign of a true artist..cruise is not the place for a cat no matter how beloved by the owner..great imagery in your story, MLK.

This is hysterical cats and their owners that travel with catnip - should not be allowed on cruises - the rolling of the waters won't help much either! I'v seen my sons cat after he had catnip, so cute and crazy Love this poem - a fav. Hugs, Jennifer.
