Cat's Catastrophe

If you’ve ever had a cat for a pet, you’ll be able to relate to the poem for today. It is amazing how these sweet, cuddly bundles of loving fur can also be so independent! The purring and the tenderness comes with "their" conditions.

There seems to be strings attached to the affection and if, you as the cat’s “master”, don’t live up to your end of the bargain, the cat WILL get even! After all, the cat’s doing you a favor to be living with you. Today's photo was found on the internet.

Enjoy the poem…..

***********

Yes, I’m upset with a good reason to fret!

As you can see I’m disgustingly wet

What you see is the sorry aftermath

Of one angry cat that just got a bath

 

I should have been wary when I awoke

By the sugar-coated words they spoke

Sweet-talking me into a good mood

Before I got bathed and shampooed

Eyes glaring, teeth bared, thoughts obscene

Claws a scratching, it’s not a pretty scene

With back arched, I resist with all my might

Not going in that tub without a serious fight

 

Yes, I sure did make one heck of a fuss

But my keeper is such a stubborn cuss

Of all the people habits, baths are the worst

Next time? They’ll have to catch me first!
