Feline RDP Friday: Feline Tool

Posted in Ragtag by

I carry my tools
wherever I go
They are attached to my paws
And that you must know
Your human ignores you?
She thinks you’re a bore?
Just put out your tool
And scratch on her door
Some call them claws
Keep them pointed and sharp
If you scrape them on wood
they sound like a harp
They are multi purpose and versatile
between my toes they are attached
Very useful for irritations
you have a flea, then you can scratch
Beware of the vet
He likes to cut them short
Luckily they grow again
Keeping them sharp is a feline sport
We felines would be lost
Without our claws to leave our mark
If you scratch them on some metal
you can even make a spark

Feline RDP Thursday: Feline Compromise

I do not do compromises
That is plain to see
We felines are made for better things
and determine how it must be
In meow the word does not exist
There is nothing more to say
It has to be the way I want it
To discussion I meow nay
And now just leave me on my chair
I will sleep, it’s my decision
There is no meowing, I determine what I want
I do not indulge in revision

Feline RDP Wednesday: Busy Feline

I am always busy
I really have no time
Imagine the energy I spend
To keep it all in line
I have a bowl of food
A task I have to beat
I usually begin in the middle
To ensure that I can eat
And after this work of love
I have to take a rest
My jaws are so exhausted
from the energy I invest
My next work is recycling
I must paw to cover it all
Mrs. Human empties my tray
For this work I am too small
An then inspect my territory
Oh the work I must endure
Life is hard for a feline
Of that I am very sure
At last at the end of the day
I make an effort to summon my powers
And now the best part arrives
I sleep for twenty-three hours

Feline RDP Tuesday: Feline Drop

Thinking about going out
the window is open and ready
The weather is good, no raindrops about
And everything is steady
On the other paw I feel so tired
I should sleep another hour
And now the sky looks as it it might drop
I am sure there will be a shower
The best laid plans of mice and cats
Often go astray
I think I will now postpone my walk
Tomorrow is another day

Feline RDP Monday: Waiting Feline

I am a patient feline
Really I can wait
Although there are exceptions
So let me get it straight
When I’m hungry,
That is quite often
I want my food at once
My impatience does not soften
If the door is closed
I can get annoyed
Until the human opens it
Anger I cannot avoid
Feline commands are to be obeyed
through the day and through the night
Always at once, immediately
and instantly is right

“Mrs. Human, this is downright embarrassing.”

“I find it quite an amusing photo Tabby. Just when I was ready to take a photo you began to lick your nose. ”

“And you find it amusing? I am now the laughing stock of the whole feline population around my territory. “Picking your nose Tabby?” or “Making sure it is still there” are just a few meows I got from the other felines. And then they began to snigger behind their paws.”

“They found it amusing. Now and again you have to laugh. A shame that I only got the top half of your face, otherwise I could put it on Pawbook to show the other felines and my friends.”

“That does not come into the question. There are certain aspects of a feline life that should be kept private. How would you like it if I took a photo of you with the handkerchief wrapped around your nose and show the Facebook world?”

“That is not a comparison Tabby and not very funny, but your tongue licking your nose is quite amusing. Where are you going?”

“In a place where you cannot find me with your camera. I have some personal cleaning to do in certain places and that will be kept away from your camera. I would like to protect my private sphere.”

Feline RDP Saturday: Feline April

April was a busy month
I think I slept all day
Closing eyes and opening them
It was a tiresome way
In between I had a wash
to make sure I was clean
Of course I had my food to eat
Maintaining a level of protein
In between I went for a walk
but had no energy to leap
And so I returned to my nice warm home
to catch up on my sleep
Up to now it has been a stress
I had so much to do
A feline life is packed with work
I must rest, not overdo
Tomorrow is another day
full of trials and action
I think it is better to think it over
Another chain reaction
