Our Cat Stole My Wallet

My wallet was missing, A common occurrence, That seldom causes panic. We were getting ready to go to the market, But still I did not panic, As I had no doubt, it was in the house, And my wife had cash. Upon our return I renewed my search, And just when I needed to sit down, For a rethink, A long way yet from a panic you understand, I felt the urge to look in the cat's Latest cardboard play box, Which was about a couple of feet from the kitchen table. And there it was, The cat denied it of course, But I will be keeping a closer eye on her in the future.
