A Cat For The Family
We need a new cat
To take the other’s place
He’ll be a member of the family
And enjoy many days
We think a tabby good
Either yellow or gray will do
With it understood
A grand cat scratches too
He will catch some birds
At our feeder filled with seed
And mom will be disturbed
To find feathers of the deceased
There are lizards everywhere
That he’ll have to control
Whether little skinks
Or green anatoles
We need the cat to purr
And let us pet him some
No matter if he is disturbed
When his tail is pulled for fun
At times he’ll be aloof
And ignoring us in fact
And we’ll want him even more
To come meowing back
