Mr Meow Our Kitty Comic

Mr. Meow Our Kitty Comic While talking to our neighbor one day Our cat Mr. Meow rubbed up against my leg “Oh there is Saffron.” our neighbor said “No, No, you must be misled That is our tabby cat, Mr. Meow” The neighbor shook her head and raised her eyebrow “He has lived with us for about a year We call him Mr. Meow since meowing is what we constantly hear He followed my husband around the yard one day We thought he was a stray and decided to let him stay” “No, he was born next door With several brothers and sisters on the shed floor” Just then mama kitty walked up to Mr. Meow and they rubbed noses Our yards were separated by a few trees and a bed of roses “We got all his shots at the vet” “We did too the day after we met” We started laughing and our neighbor said, “What a little comic mess Saffron alias Mr. Meow, the little con can be your cat I guess” Mr. Meow, we discovered was a comedian My husband and I were his biggest fans To get our attention he would do a little prance A hunched back like a Halloween cat dance Many a day he brought us gifts, birds and rabbits Without success we tried to break his serial killer habits Laughing at him was what he liked most Of course, he could be distracted by a piece of pork roast During his sixteen years he learned to sit on command He seemed to realize our dog Boodro got treats if he obeyed demands We can't help but smile as we think of him Our beloved tabby comic who always made us grin

A lovely poem, Shirley, congratulations. I'm in a similar situation- my Cat Celeste has a boyfirend who comes each morning for breakfast, snoozes, occasionally fights (and loses, even though he is older and bigger than she) then wanders off. We call him Smokey. I have no idea where he is from or what his real name is. All I know is, he's crippled my cat treat bill. Viv x
