Two Cats
Do you have pets, she asked,
during our chat.
Yes, I replied,
we have two cats.
My wife turned
and said with a laugh,
Dogs have owners,
cats have staff.
Over the years,
we have found,
that cats are purr-fect;
we're not kitten around.
We're lucky to have them,
they're so soft and furry
and yes, of course
they're very purr-ty.
Don't misjudge a cat's intelligence;
it's often first-rate.
They can't read books, but they can read your mind;
they're very litter-ate.
Our younger cat is so mischievous,
she's no bystander;
but the elder one in our house
is the supreme commander.
With fur-ends like these,
no matter how you spin it,
it's a cat's world
and we're just living in it.
