The Neighbor's Tabby (Limerick)

Folder: 
Limericks

I like this cat we have next door.

It's SO fat it wobbles as it walks the floor.

When she sees a mouse

BOUNCE goes the house

and when she meows it's a ROAR!!!

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Satirical limerick.  I'm thinking of obese cats right now and what I've heard about them...

My feelings are mixed about this poem. I like it because it's cute and funny in a way, but mostly it alarms me because I know some fat cats and their health is in great danger when they're that big. I don't know that we have a right to really being laughing at the expense of a cat's health, especially when we teach our children not to make fun of people or animals.
