The Cat and the Violin

There once was a cat
who was really quite fat
his likes were pets, food, sleep
but of music, not a peep
when he saw the violin case
he ran away, as if in a race

Dear Kathleen, your delightful limerick had me grinning, such a lovable, chunky feline with strong opinions on music! I’m curious… did that violin case send him running or inspire a dramatic nap? LOL! your humor and charm shine through! Winter Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

He definitely ran, but I'm pretty soon there was a nap after he realized I wasn't going to play it right then! Thanks for your kind words!

The cat did not like the violin, not even one bit!

No he does not! I actually play pretty well, but he wants nothing to do with it,!
