Crazy Kitten





Around and round she went

Chasing her toy she stopped
For her little cat-nip mouse
In front of the dog kerplopped!

Cautiously she looked at him
A great golden mass of fur
The retriever drowsily snoozing there
Didn’t even stir

The tiny kitten gazed at him
And blinked her big blue eyes
The huge dog dozing there
Was about nine times her size

Cautiously she raised her paw
And sent that mouse a skittering
Right straight into the doggie's nose
That set his eyelids flittering….

Oh, Ohhhh…….





(This was written about a hypothetical kitten but based on the antics of several I have known through my life as a Cat Lady – have included a photo of two who could definitely fit the bill. I have never been blessed enough to have the above stated “golden” although the one mentioned vaguely resembles my neighbor with four paws named Duke, who has two kittens of his own.)

This is a great little picture of images that we know, but your vivid descriptions which are full of love make everything come to life. It fills the heart with smiling warmth.

Yours, Christofer
