Bailey Cat

Like Christmas in July! You're getting your Friday limerick early this week...because it's MY Friday (woohoo!) and because I'm just too giddy about this one to let it sit in scheduled status for another 12 hours.

To the tune of "My Favorite Things" from The Sound of Music

Tissues and fingers, not cat toys or feathers;
Claws digging deep into couches of leather;
Crumpled up papers and laces, not strings:
These are a few of my favorite things.

Black beans and chicken and eggs and white cheeses,
Wide open windows and cool autumn breezes;
Mewing while stalking God's creatures with wings:
These are a few of my favorite things.

Back scratches, ear rubs, but not hugs or cuddles,
Splish-splash in my water, I'm makin' big puddles;
That magic appliance and tuna it brings:
These are a few of my favorite things........

When the door slams! When it thunders! When I'm feeling sad...
I'll pounce on your stomach while your fast asleep, and then I won't feeeeeeeel soooo baaaaaad.
