Our Pets

Our Pets

 

Our animals share a history

As our dearest pets

Sharing our home as they live

With toys we often get

 

Our cat doesn’t hunt

But lounges ‘round the house

With everything that he needs

From toy bird to plastic mouse

 

He also has a scratching post

And uses it some each day

With his claws sharp and strong

To scratch us as we play

 

Our dog is an inside pet

And really is quite spoiled

With chew toys of all sorts

That he readily destroys

 

Our dog does not mind our cat

And they share plenty space

The cat sleeps and purrs

And we pet the dog all day

 

There is a parakeet

That sings all the time

And sees himself in a mirror

As an enemy sometimes

 

Our friends really like our pets

And say that they are fine

And they want animals too

As family in their lives
