Cat Curiosity

Curiosity perhaps killed many a cat
For a cat it is an inquisitive brat

All life poor thing it shall rummage through trash
Spring on the dinner table and the diner might bash! 

Famous might be a Tom cat for those famed nine lives
but not much help is that if in every danger it dives! 

It's feline curiosity to crash-land it in trouble
for it tends to explore every kind of rubble.

Mr. feral puss  for a fight and a wild-goose-chase.
Why forever look forward to yourself amuse and amaze? 

In a cat basket he's likely to be struck with ennui
Perhaps his caretaker thought only of his fengshui? 


His meowing screeching resonates in the valley
as he tussels with rival cats in the alley

Mr. Tom cat I tink I'll call you Mr. Sossy
but with feline femmes you're way too bossy

Wild and rough, with macho feral pride
I watch you tease and taunt in your typical stride.

No way is he kitty soft paws
Mr.sossy sure has the sharpest claws.

Sossy the tabby and fishy leftover fish pie
kissed the feline females and made them cry.

But my fav is my own cutie pussy darling so soft
even if she may raid the loft that's aloft

They are very curious, about everything; it's part of their charm...I have a very clumsy one though; she gets into way too many rough situations, so I have to keep a close eye on her, at all times. Great piece of work and I enjoyed it.

I like how you joyfully entertain us with your wit and play on words, Zaynub! Curiosity kills the cat, but only after it has lived life to the full!! All the best. // paul

Wonderful poem. Sometimes woman- cat sharpens its claws on a trunk tree...don t hapen to see? I enjoyed at first sight. It has a special light, humor and wonderful playful rhymes, like a game with life. It reminds me a page from Cannery Row... as well as my Brown or Schordinger Cat.
