Oh Kitty Oh Kitty

Oh Kitty! Oh Kitty! Our relationship has soured Our love is hitting the skids I know you love presenting me with your mouse gifts But why do you insist on eating the heads? But Oh, lovely, Lovely! Lovely! O the heartfelt rubs you have given to me Patting me down, like a nest Filling me with happy days Oh Kitty! Oh Kitty! See your cat food? Please eat it, and give up your hunting ways This is the third time I have stepped on a part mouse barefooted. Since you insist on hunting, Can’t you please find favor in hunting these feathered mice? The pretend mice cats are guaranteed to love in TV commercials Lovely Kitty! My true friend! You turn me upside down with giggles when you try. You have the power to make my bad days good. Please give up the hunt, so we can be together. My Kitty, you have a terrific purr. You are full of giddiness and love. An animal who uplifts me and makes me laugh. Rejoice O Shores and Ring O bells! And follow me to the larder Where we will chat as we munch Salmon sandwiches, giving up those damned mice.

All cats do it. My cat used to bring me ground moles, voles, and anything else she killed. She was ferocious. But, with me, she was a sweetheart. I loved her.

Ours is named Shark and it is extremely appropriate.

Somehow I've lost my appetite for mice. Inexplicable, really. lol. Sigh. Caren, you continue to amaze... Cheers, Gershon

Thank you Gershon, this was supposed to be a parody of Captain, my Captain.
