The Contrary Cat

By Joan Riordan

Won’t capture mice

Thinks that they’re nice

Won’t climb a tree

Watches T.V.

No laps- instead

Perches on heads

Likes to get wet

And visit the vet

Allergic to yarn

Stays away from the barn

Chews on big sticks

Learns funny new tricks

Greets me each day

When I’ve been away

At times, I suppose

He’s a dog in cat clothes

The only thing

That’s as it should be?

I like him

                 and he likes me.
