Tigger

I was lonely living in a cats rescue then my destined family came along how wonderful that day when I met you knowing then to you I wanted to belong, when I arrived at my future new home excited, strange smells, now I must explore an whole house, big garden for me to roam this couldn't be better, I couldn't ask for more, by the way they kept my name, it's Tigger I'm a tabby, got a bit of a cheek not very big in fact I wish I was bigger never mind I've got some bedrooms to peek, now I'm in my new home I will decide which family member to please, adopt first find a nice warm place to sleep and hide cosy cupboard or wardrobe if unlocked, oh I will make them adore me, I'm cute will allow them some love and affection but only if I'm in the mood, I'm no brute I'm a pussy cat, could say perfection, now I'm settled in, set the boundary they know where they stand, they know all my needs fuss me if I want, then there's no quandary just take care of me, I eat expensive feeds, I like to go roaming during night-time hours they don't know where I am, or where I've been but they know they’re mine, under my powers now you know, Tigger is the undisputed QUEEN. 9/2/2018 Personification Poem Of A Pet, Wild Animal or Insect Sponsor: Tania Kitchin.

Thanks Tom, I’ve only had two cats, had dogs when I was younger but love how cats are so independent and very affectionate when they want to be, thanks again for your support my friend. :))

I love this, Roy, and I love cats and I find it so funny and appropriate that your last name is "Pett". lol A loving cat can make a wonderful "pet".

Thank you so much Carole love the comparison, Tigger is our cat and she is so adored by all the family, we got her from a cat rescue centre after our other cat passed away at the age of 18, thanks again for your support my dear friend.
