Is that my Kindle? Have they been reading Atlas Shrugged?
Their mysterious, "I rule" attitude will make you think they are there to take over your world, only to find they have taken over your heart.
Having laid down my sleepy head
At the end of such a horrid day,
Knowing each cat had been well fed
And I could snooze the night away,
Is she sucking her thumb??
There did appear in far dark hall
A shadow fluffed and arched up high,
And then that familiar sound did call
To my worn senses... NO, I sigh,
Did you put out my favorite food yet? I've been waiting at least 5 minutes
They surely cleaned half of their fur
From off each other's frame tonight,
I cannot stand it, my eyes a blur
As I crept down the hall with fright,
Bath time
I must tread lightly as I merge
Oh no, I fear it is too late,
To dodge the yak that they did purge
My foot has found its squishy fate,
If I hide behind this curtain, she'll never find me
You look so lovely on the chairCurled up into a soft fur ball,
But up will come your brother's hair
Pulled from his tail while in the hall,
I am so precious this way...she cannot be cross with me
I know they love me, though they're smugTheir soft purrs whispered in my ear,
But how I dread the cat yak on the rug
It makes me shrug and run in fear,
Being entertained by human menial tasks and bird dwellings in the tree
Nestled beside me as I sleepMy heart's been pierced by Cupid's bow,
You live within its walls so deep
I love you kitties, as you know.
Whoever said "dogs have masters, cats have staff" surely were cat owners. Their mysterious personalities, snarkiness, camaraderie, and affection make them treasures, in every sense of the word. They change you. Their relaxed outlook on life relaxes you and helps you more calmly tackle the business of your day. When I am sick, they lie beside me. When I work, they surround me and remind me I am not alone. When I am sad, a gentle paw (with claws concealed) lightly touches my cheek. When I am sleeping and snooze through the alarm, they pounce me and make sure I get up. Their rhythmic motor that increases with rubbing their back, radiates their affection. They are the four-legged members of our clan, who inhabit our furniture and our hearts. We love you!
