My Girlfriend is a Coon Cat

I’m dating a coon cat

She likes me and I like her

What’s the matter with that?

Just because my girl has fur?

 

**

 

She growls when she is upset

And when she’s happy she purrs

She’s my girl, not my pet

Because I know my heart is hers

 

 **

 

When we walk down the street

I proudly hold her paw

But when my girl is in heat

is the scariest thing you ever saw

 

 **

 

When I look into those eyes so big & green

She let’s out a soft purr

I’ve heard some say it’s obscene

But I just want a girl with fur

 

**

 

Blondes are always fun

But I know felines are better

I’ve known this cat is the one

Ever since I’ve met her

 

**

 

She is not the domestic kind

And she can get pretty wild

Yeah, next to my coon cat I find

That every other girl is mild

 

**

 

We show each other affection

Just please don’t ask me how

We’ve made a real connection

I love how she wispers, “meow.”

 

**

 

So you can say it won’t work out

You think we shouldn’t date

I’ll say this so loud I’ll shout

DON’T MESS WITH FATE!

Author notes

Ok, before everyone thinks I need to be committed, let me explain.

I wrote this after my aunt got confuse as to whom I was bringing with me on a family trip. I was dating a girl named Daisy. Which is the same name as another family members pet coon cat. So, my aunt suddenly said, "Why is Ryan bringing a cat?"

My aunt is a bit naïve. So, we actually went along with it. She was a bit relieved when I showed up with a girl.

    These lines are so cute, and clearly written by someone who knows cats, and also understands what it means to be owned by a cat!

    Reading this with my cat settled in my lap makes me feel slightly perverted. Yay!!! thought provoking. Just dont' tell her she resembles a coon cat. She's cocky enough. Great rhyme, thanks for entering and good luck

    This made me chuckle. I was slightly worried that you were being serious, but the authors notes help calm my rapid heartbeat . This was so cute and in many ways, you can compare a woman to a cat. Never want to see me getting catty anyway. Though god knows why men are called the pussies...

    Nice inspiration. Write simple but stunning. I love the way you expressed this - with humour but still with hints of the affection you have for her not the cat.

    Haha, this is odd, but I still find it funny.Quirky. The rhyme just adds to the appeal of this cute poem.

    "It’s the scariest thing you have ever saw"

    the correct verb would be seen, I know it would mess up the rhyme, but I just thought I would point it out. Very cute :]

    Well it brings more images to mind than even I would care to admit. I love the cheeky humour in this as well...very well done. Cute cat by the by. It looks just like my boyfriend's cat...thank goodness my name's not Taffy haha.
    Anyhoo...before this comment gets any creepier, good luck in the contest

    Very nice piece, very funny. I love it, though the rhyming seems a little bit forced.

    Cute. You could do a lot worse because that breed of cat does have a certain something. On the other hand, how do you know she won't dump you for one of her own kind.

    Nice write.

    Ihave often been intrigued about coon cats. When I first heard of them I assumed they must be black with crinkly fuzzy wuzzy hair but now it seems they are fluffy. It just shows how PC has wrecked the pet world.

    Great

    I like the whole "She's different but you must accept her" message in it.
    And it is also funny, so well done and good luck.

    ha ha. so i didn't catch the fact that it was a humerous poem at first, and i was a little wiered out that you liked gurls with fur etc. Then i realized it was humer. so great job!
    lol.
