He Can Handle the Kittens

Oh, sure, Mr. Ruff can handle these kits, the Mama Cat said.
She gave him all kinds of credit and kept her dog-sitter well fed.
Mr. Ruff did his best, he really truly did, but they got the best of him.
He was too easy on the kittens, who were full of vigor, vinegar and vim.

I can relate. We had a batch of kittens one time and they were all over the place. Talk about trying to herd cats!
