The Cat Wants Out

The cat wants out
he keeps knocking on his door,
he head butts it profusely
"Whatcha got me locked in for?"

He enjoys his carry cage
a towel warms his feet,
after coming in from outside
he enjoys having a treat.

Me meows when he wants food
and when he wants a drink of milk,
he loves having his attention
doesn't have any guilt.

We leave his cage door locked
so he doesn't overrun the house,
you can tell when he's napping
most times he's quiet as a mouse.

He snores loudly when he sleeps
no need to scream or shout,
he knocks on his door profusely
"Excuse me humans, I want out!"

I got the idea to write this, after our cat was tapping on his carrier door with his paw, to let us know he wanted out of it. He head butts the door too, when he knows his door is locked.
