I loved this :)

When I was just a kitten,
My Mother said to me;
"Someday you`ll have a human pet,
They`re cuddly and they`re free."
She said,"They`re awful clumsy,
They stumble, trip, and fall.
They cannot even see a Cat,
Sleeping in a hall."
"They act as if they own the place,
They`re bossy every day."
"You`ll learn you must ignore them;
It`s just the human way."
So, I took my Moms` advice,
I got a human pet.
I have named her Ginny,
Ans she`s cuddly as they get.
Owning Ginnie`s been some fun,
And usually we are friends,
She can be a handful though,
I`m glad she wasn`t twins.
Humans really aren`t too bright,
Their brains are small I guess.
While trying hard to train her,
I`ve not had much success.
She doesn`t seem to understand
How things are supposed to be.
She insists on being headstrong,
Not mellowed out, like me.
She hasn`t learned to lick herself,
To keep her body clean.
And when it comes to purring,
She isn`t very keen.
She plays on her computer,
Just wasting time away.
When playing with a ball of string,
Could really make her day.
She seems content to sit there,
Banging on those keys.
While I inspect her ankles,
Checking them for fleas.
When my neighbors visit me,
We sneak out to the bushes.
We laugh about our human pets,
While sitting on our tushes.
Ginnys` getting up in years,
And becoming rather slow.
There are a lot of cats out there.
Who`d say she has to go.
But, I`m inclined to keep her,
I`ve considered this a lot.
Why train another human pet
When I love the one I`ve got...
