Pretty Pets

I've had many pets in my life. Right now two cats and I abide In my small house the size for us, But I can't let this pair outside. They're feral cats that I rescued When wild coyotes invaded nests. Wild coyotes on our rich farm land Have become real cat-nab pests. A neutered tom and spayed kitty Have the full range of my loved home. Their antics keep me entertained And none of us now care to roam. They run and play amicably And gladly share their lives me. 11/16/2014

Hi Joyce, Congratulations on your interesting poem and win. Sounds like it is pretty dangerous for pretty pets outside. Very entertaining. Have a great week end. Take care. Earl

Well Joyce, I have to say, you wrote this in such a way, that Dorian got to seeing them as dogs (maybe she just isn't a cat person). Perhaps not your intention, but a power nonetheless. I didn't like cats until I owned one. Congrats to you and thank you for sharing.
