Tiger King Meow and His Wives

Leopard Kitty had the pool to herself. She sat on the edge, on the cat-loving shelf. Others saw her there, and tiptoed quickly away. She looked to be in a vile ugly mood this fine day. Oh, let’s go on down, Tiger King Meow said. He was in the mood to swim, in trunks of swim red. Tigress Cat was unsure, so she feigned a head ache. She had seen Leopard Kitty’s other side, for goodness sake! Tiger King Meow and Leopard Kitty got along well. They swam laps, danced a watusi and told others to go to….. Made it a daily thing, this little te’te’te of two. What was the Tigress Cat to do? She finally joined them, and realized Leopard Kitty was not bad. She had listened to silly rumors from her mom and granddad. They were all fast friends now, and there were kittens galore. They watched each other’s kits while Tiger King shopped at the store. He brought home the bacon, the salmon and the kibble. Kept women, which gave the neighbors something to nibble. But neither cared, for they were living the life they wanted now. Both dancing the watusi with their husband, Tiger King Meow.
