You can't do it. So don't judge one bit. You are more inclined to go about your rat race or stuff your fat face. Oh a double rhyme there. Damn, I'm good at my lair. But what am I going on about? I guess I'll just have to give it a shout.
Left to right it goes.
Depending on how the wind blows.
Or would that be arm?
Either way, keep it out of harm.
For it must remain high.
Otherwise it will be scratched on the first try.
Once it catches my eye.
I have to make the thing die.
Why do you torture me?
Just let the damn thing be.
Be so much easier to gulp down.
If you didn't keep moving it across town.
Making me run down the hall,
Bouncing my head like a ball.
But I will not give up.
Like some easily distracted butt sniffing pup.
I will catch you and that thing.
No matter where you let it fling.
Up and down and all around.
I'll tackle it without making a sound.
If your leg or arm should get in the way.
You won't have a very nice day.
Maybe a scar to show off though.
If you like that sort of thing at your show.
You're the dumb one,
That made me run.
If only you'd given it to me.
I would have left you be.
But oh know.
You had to make it go.
Just couldn't let me eat it.
So shut up and take the hit.
Let the blood flow.
And just know.
I always win.
So next time just drop it next to my food bin.
Don't make me chase the damn fuzzy ball.
Bouncing it on a string up and down the hall.
I already know I can jump through the air.
A fact you are also aware.
So just give me the damn thing.
I like to eat string.
I promise to chew,
Not letting anything bad come due.
Drop, stop and go away.
Let me play.
I don't need a dirty human to help.
Oops, I scratched you, go give a good yelp.
Why you humans make us chase fuzzy balls or mice on a string. Yeah, I know fuzzy balls sounds like some gutter thing. But why you make us chase them is beyond me. Then you sit and laugh at what you see. Or get all glum because I scratched your bum. Too bad there lad and lass. You've just been taught not to mess with my little rhyming ass.
Later all, have a nice fall.
No.#1
ReplyDeleteIt's still fun!
Hank
And again
DeleteBeating many to my den
You think it's fun
ReplyDeleteTo chase the fuzzy one
If you need it
Why don't you keep it
Don't throw it back
And laugh to expect
It in your hands
And have me then run again
What do you gain
From this game?
I'm real tired
May have you fired
You'll then not own me
And I'll be free!
Hank
The cat tries
DeleteBut Pat yanks it to the skies
And throws it all about
As I jump in and out
Exercise I suppose
As I leap from my toes
One,two three again
ReplyDeleteWith some gains!
Hank
Putting all the shame
DeleteWith your 3 game
haha...i make mine chase yarn or string, leave it laying then give it a sling, he gets a little crazy but it keeps her from getting lazy...and truth be told its for my own comedy....smiles.
ReplyDeletehaha yeah that it is
DeleteA human comedy biz
The cat eats the string though
Which is no good you know
I trained
ReplyDeletemy human
says Fang
to Orlin
she tried
that once
with me.
I left her
bleeding,
shouting,
screaming,
so drop
the thing
she did.
Through lidded
eyes I
looked at
her
my face
a smug
repose.
No more
would she
torment me,
the Queen
of all
I see.
I did try this once with Fang and she seemed to be having fun and then she caught my hand with her claws. Because she's lived her life outdoors and has had to hunt for food, when she plays, she doesn't hold back. She's so much faster than the two housecats we have and she packs a wallop with her arm. What's play to them, is survival for her.
She does ask to come in every night now and she sleeps right beside my head on the pillow. I adore her.
haha not going to take any strat
DeleteFrom you at your mat
And being part wild cat
I also squash the body parts of Pat
Scratching them up with ease
Whenever I please
Looks like Fang owns you now too
As she takes over your zoo
She still can't cope with the other two cats though. She's had to fight cats outside for so long that she's scared of them. The Spawns cat is this huge Maine Coon and he wants to be her friend, but she just feels threatened. She loves the dogs though and rubs up against their faces purring away.
DeleteShe really is a perfect kitty and she can own me as much as she likes.
Sure she will come around
DeleteTo more than just each hound
But than again Orlin hates cats too
And makes them all shoo
Tis the Christmas season so I thought I would share:
ReplyDeleteIt was Christmas Eve and everyone was feeling Mary.
But mary had to leave.
Then they jumped for Joy.
But, she hadda go, too.
So did that just leave Holly?
DeleteI bet she made all feel rather jolly.
You forgot Ivy! :)
DeleteWell we can't be greedy
DeleteThat would be rather seedy
It really is true, that hall is the best place to chase a ball!
ReplyDeleteYeah the hall is nice and big
DeleteTo snap that string like a twig
It's funny how every cat likes to play with string
ReplyDeletemust be an evolutionary thing.
Yeah has to be
DeleteThey even try to eat it at each sea
Ha ha, a dog has more sense than to chase a fuzzy thing
ReplyDeletebut throw them a squeaky ball and they feel like a king!
Have a great day...fuzzy things and all in your bay!
Yeah each have their vice
DeleteBut both can chase down mice
My cats chaseme most of the time. As well as pistachios...
ReplyDeleteChase you away
DeleteThat must make their day
And then they'll get hungry... and come and beg me for forgiveness.
DeleteWell have to have food
DeleteNo matter how rude
ha nice..so much fun...and i'm glad that they allow us dirty humans from time to play to play with them..smiles
ReplyDeleteYeah the dirty humans can play once in a while
DeleteFor they aren't always so vile
Maybe the cat should get a laser pointer for Christmas (insert evil laugh here). ;-)
ReplyDeleteGot one of those
DeleteBut they just make the cat doze
Oh, btw, I saw The Hobbit movie last night, and it was rather disappointing. But let me know what you think, that just my opinion.
ReplyDeleteFigures that is what it would be
DeleteI guess I shall see
You could just act all aloof
ReplyDeletelike you didn't see the spoof
but no, you can't help yourself
chasing the ball along the shelf.
So we humans take advantage of your addiction
and enjoy as you entertain as your affliction.
haha.
Yeah I suppose
DeleteCould also bite your toes
And make you drop it right there
That would stop such things at each lair
Socks likes to bite my toes and fingers
Deletebut he's gentle and rather ginger.
Kinda cute in a way,
this fetish he has at my bay.
Doesn't do it to any of the men
I guess mine smell better to him.
lol....
Or maybe they smell worse
DeleteAnd he's trying to break the curse
By adding his smell
To make them swell
No, I'm quite positive my smell better
Deletein any and all kinds of weather.
lol....
mine...is what I meant to type. ha.
Deletehaha screwing up once more
DeleteSo fun to see at my shore
This is a great set of poetry as usual Cat, I love this post a whole lot buddy. This gave me a whole lot of joy, if Pat was not around that would indeed annoy. Awesome post mate.
ReplyDeletesuck up....
DeleteBig suck up indeed
DeleteToday at my feed haha
Cats are mercenaries, the cool kind though,
ReplyDeletebut dogs are for show!
Yeah they will get it down
DeleteWearing the mercenary crown
It's funny to watch a cat
ReplyDeleteChasing fuzz balls, or anything at that.
xoRobyn
Yeah as they jump high and low
DeleteWatching where the ball will go
Chasing balls is for dogs, not cats!
ReplyDeleteFuzzy balls on a string
DeleteAre their thing
Running and chasing the fuzzy ball is fun for humans,
ReplyDeletenot for the pets or cats though ~
Wishing you good night Pat ~
Yeah fun for the humans to do
DeleteShould hit them with something eww
Hehehe... My ferrets chased fuzzy things on strings too... Oh they were so silly...
ReplyDeleteYeah seems to be an appeal
DeleteWith the fuzzy thing deal
It's only 8:00 here and I'm knackered so I'm off to dreamland.
ReplyDeleteNitey Nite Cat.
I'll be there in a bit too
DeleteAfter I hop around for a few
It's so amusing to watch a pet chase after a toy . . . though more fun for the humans, I guess!
ReplyDeleteYeah I suppose that is true
DeleteAmuse away we do
Wait, what do you do here? It has been a long time. Oh yeah, hilarious posts that flow. Good to see you still excelling Pat. Also, seems I owe you a book review. Better get to work on that...
ReplyDeleteSurely has been a while
DeleteBut I still go the rhyming mile
And excel I will
Here at my hill
lol Could be worse. Could be a laser light.
ReplyDeleteCould be that
DeleteWhich is boring to this cat
I like to bat at things that are pretty
ReplyDeleteAnd the Human says, You're such a good kitty!
And I feel like a chump or a sell-out
But then I think, What's that about?
I'm having quite a bit of fun, no kidding--
And the Human, well, she's just doing my bidding!
That is another way to think
DeleteAs humans try to bring us to the brink
They are still under out control
With their fuzzy ball stroll
Haha! Clever and funny!
ReplyDeleteClever as can be
DeleteHere at my sea
