The Purple Cat

by Cornerstoregoddess

I had a lovely purple cat,

Her name was Miss O'Learia

And when she wanted time alone

She hid in the wisteria.

(She's not hiding now and can be found here and here.)

A Tale of Two Littermates

Said kitty to his littermate,
"I'm ready for a Twitter date.
I see a critter as my fate...
Someone to share my glitter crate."

Replied the kitty's littermate,
"Please don't fall for some spitter date
Who drools inside our glitter crate,
Or one who flitters at the gate."

At last the two fine littermates
Both lined up two twin Twitter dates
They cast their luck to critter fates
For good things comes to those who waits.

Littermate kitties here and here.

The Cats of KilKenny

There once were two cats of Kilkenny,



Each thought there was one cat too many;



So they fought and they fit,



And they scratched and they bit,



'Til, excepting their nails,



And the tips of their tails,



Instead of two cats, there weren't any.



Many CHARMing cats remain here, however.

There Was a Black Cat...

There was a black cat, name of Inky
Whose personal hygiene was stinky.
He slept in a bed with a gnawed-off mouse head
And slurped it like it was a binky.

 There was a black cat, name of Mo
Whose shedding was designed to show
That if you wore white he could fix it up right
'Til it looked more like crow than like snow.

There was a black cat named Denise
Who refused to desist and decease
With her howling and yowling and her late night prowling,
She gave all the meeces no peace.

There was a fine shop with some kittens
To pay for the feral cats' mittens,
Their shots and their fixes and and all their cat sickses
Because their cat lady was smittens.

Curled Up Cats

Curled up cats

With all their charms.

Wonder where they

Keep their arms.

When Irish Cats are Purring

When Irish cats are purring,
Sure, 'tis like the morn in Spring.
In the lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the tabbies sing.

When Irish cats are happy,
All the world seems bright and gay.
And when Irish cats are purring,
Sure, they steal your heart away.

 

Have your heart stolen here.
