Watch Out!

I am black and white,
I am a smell, not a sight,
I've got a tail,
It'll aim well,
And I have quite a bite.

Some say I carry rabies,
Some think we are all babies,
But we are not,
A rabid lot,
We are not all just crazies.

Once in a while we'll get the disease,
That makes our brains work without ease,
We get a thirst,
That seems to burst,
Until our heart beats cease.

But most of the time we're a stinky pack,
You'd better always watch your back,
One more time I'll say the same,
The black and whites have a good aim,
Spraying stink is our knack.

But I just wanted to warn you,
That spraying is not all we do,
We are not,
A rabid lot,
We're God's creation too.

Watch Out!
