Pretty In Pink

Fancy feast
In my best china dish
How she loves to be finicky
Wearing nothing but
Her pretty pink rhinestone collar
As she tiptoes across the room
Slinky and sleek
With a regal air
Ignoring silly bipeds
Life is grand
Prancing around
She owns the place

My god! You've written a poem about my cat! Her favorite food: "Fancy feast"; her collar is: "Pink"; yep she thinks she owns the place...and the people, too. Had to favorite this one, it's so perfect.
