I wish you could just see my cat:
She's a darling, there's no doubt of that:
So soft, and so sleek, and so fat.
Her eyes are a beautiful green,
The brightest that ever were seen:
Of cats she is truly the queen.
She loves to lie stretched in the sun
But as soon as my lessons are done,
She is ready for frolic and fun.
My kitty has two sets of claws,
Tucked away in those velvety paws:
She can use them, too, when there is cause.
I cannot thin what I should do,
If, my pussy, I ever lost you:
We're so happy together, we two!
I call her my bundle of fur:
Hark! now she's beginning to purr:
Kit loves me, and oh, I love her!
