My Lady

My small cute kitty cat is a lady. How delicately she creeps along the bed! As if to beg my pardon, she apprehensively proceeds until, finding the spot she prefers, she settles, softly purring, on my head. Jan. 11, 2017 For Brenda Chiri-Carroll's "For the Love of Kittens" Poetry Contest (This is true! She loves sitting on the pillow right near my head and she lightly swats at me in the morning to get up and get her food!!)

Reminds me of my old cat Bilbo - whom I really miss. She had a lot of kittens - which we gave away. Nice tribute to our feline friends! Peace & Love Matthew Anish

A real charmer. Yes, kitties have a good idea of the time for food. I have a kitten sleeps with me every night, but come dawn she wanders off toward the kitchen. Love, daver

I think it's great how cats can demand whatever they want with affection. And get away with it! Great poem and good luck in the contest Andrea! :-)

Awwn... this is so sweet. I've never gotten a pet, but reading this makes me long for one. This is beautiful Andrea. And the cat sure knows the position to take to get your attention. Good luck in the contest. A win for sure. #7

I love this. Dear kitty so pretty and daintily precise. Heh, you make me laugh when you're not even nice. But I guess it depends on one's own perception. If your head may be cold you might make an exception. :)
