Animal 'Mini-Limericks'

     Zebras are clever little horses with stripes
       They know how to discharge without having to wipe

     They say pigs roll in the mud so as to get clean
        My wife keeps trying mudpacks if you know what I mean 

     A cow’s tail is a very effective fly-swatter
        Remember to first ask the butcher to slaught-her

     When I saw in the kitchen-sink a whale of a snail
        I called the Doc – Never mind our daughter looks pale

      “Honey, you promised to kill that June-bug, remember?”
        “Oh, yeah… You asked me last June, and now it’s December”

      Dog rhymes with hog, which in turn rhymes with frog
         But only one lives on a lily in a swamp called a bog       

      My vet told me my new cat would have up to nine lives 
         A Queen Bee snatched ‘em all when she flew out of her hive
