PostSubject: Something the cat dragged in   Tue Sep 07, 2010 8:13 pm

...
Something the cat dragged in
A plastic tube, a piece of string
A butterfly with just one wing
A dead bumble bee, still with sting
And an unidentifiable thing

Something the cat dragged in
A bunch of keys, on a ring
Half an earthworm, long and thin
Remains of salmon in a tin
A tie-wrap and a safety pin

Something the cat dragged in
Wondering each day, what she will bring
A pork chop, or a chicken shin
Or simply a potato skin
Treasures gleaned from next doors bin

Something the cat dragged in
A photo of Martin Luther King
Half a bottle of Gordon’s gin
Absolution from original sin
No just herself and that Cheshire grin.
...

That is one busy cat, Steve. She wouldn't leave you much room to live in the end.

the pork scratching
and the cable tie
the chicken bone
she gave to Ry
not understanding
he could choke and die ....

the list is endless
goes on and on
when we take them away
so does her sad song !!

Thats true Eunice, but luckily our bin men call too... so most of her collection is carted off on a wednesday. Her latest trick is collecting giant hawk moth catepillars from the Fuchsia's.
Very Happy

Well it could be Karen, but in this case just our awkward cat, no deeper meaning intended.

I loved particulalry the last verse - if only cats would bring soemthing valuable we could use. We get voles and mice a plenty - and even a dragon fly !) I suppose they are presents but sadly not much appreciated by us. Sometimes they are accompanied by loud miau's advertising the catch. Does your cat do this? A lovely portrait of your cat, Steve.
