My Black Cat

Did you know,
cats are smart.
Black cats are extra smart,
with a sixth sense.
We know to stay off the streets,
black cats on the streets mean trouble for people.
Black cats need extra love and rubs,
we are very independent.
Don't disturb us while napping or sleeping,
you will get a huge hiss.
We love play time,
we need plenty of toys and catnip for us to enjoy.
Make sure our litter box is changed each day,
we like nice smells around us.
Remember black cats need extra rubs,
it's time for some of those extra rubs.

Congratulations, Paula!! What a fun poem! My parents now have 5 cats, so it can get a bit crazy over there! However, none of them are black. The funny thing is that I have had many black cats cross the street in front of me while I'm driving over the years! Coincidence? Hmm..LOL! God bless and much love...Meghan!

Had a black cat in my 20's. It was super-smart, super-sensitive, and super-sweet. ~ Rub-a-dub-dub

Thanks for your note. It was good to hear from you. No cat should be picked on. Just loved. I do not have any cats now. I did many years ago. I have also had dogs. Love them both. Have a great/blessed day..............
