Liam the Everyday Cat
Saturday is Caturday
And cats are sure to have their way
They’ll stretch and loll and reach and roll
For daily languishing their goal
But if there’s moment that you catch
Them just off-guard, on arm they latch!
Their teeth sink in, their claws will slash
They’ll scar you with an inch deep gash…
Then just as quick, release and run
Left mauled, in pain, they’ve had their fun
They’re heading for their favourite place
And off to dream of mice to chase
In sunny spot of warmest room
Until again they need to zoom
Their yowls and cries are ever heeded
You’ll pet and cosset them when needed
Oh pampered puss, oh furry terror
May we live like this forever
You on velvet throne, adored
And us, just waiting, to be… ignored
