Nine Lives

Nine lives are bestowed upon a cat to live, In this world full of danger we travel through. None may escape the final time appointed to them, Even the cat has it's last moment to breathe. Living a life of adventure, demands some extra chances, It's the curious cat, trapped, who really needs it. Vain cats cleaning themselves on a slim, lofty ledge. Excitable cats trying to catch the mysterious red dot. Silly cats flipping their tails at a dog pack. For the "Nine" contest.

The last 5 lines are great--giving the reason a cat has 9 lives is that it lives 'on the edge'. I like this a lot! Great write!
