I Don'T Know Outside

I don't know outside
Having never been
The couch is my lair
Along with the bed

I sit on the sill
And stare at the scene
Feathered shapes
Flit around so fast

Are they real?
I can't tell there's no smell
So I guess not
I chase a red dot

That catches my eye
Then I eat and lie down
I sometimes sense more
But not sure what could be

My life goes on 
I get my treats and
Wonderful scratches
Just where I need them
