My cat Smokey is quite simply,
The stupidest cat in the world,
He ate one of mums HRT pills,
Now he's more like a girl.
He sometimes sleeps on the wardrobe,
One day I heard a thump,
And couldn't stop laughing when I realised,
He had forgotten how to jump.
When it's time to put him out for the night,
He makes me chase him around,
Shifting all the furniture,
Into one big messy mound,
Which he then sits on top of,
Lord of the livingroom,
While I stand swearing and panting,
Giving him looks of pure doom.
When I was pregnant he was great,
Though he's a heavy fat lump,
He got all paternal,
And started sleeping on my bump.
When Lily was born he was curious,
Came and sniffed her hair,
Then she moved and made a noise,
It took a week to coax him out from under the armchair!
He really is perfect,
He's patient with Lily, too,
When she's pulling his tail or climbing on him,
He just sits there like a pile of furry goo.
He curls up behind my knees,
When my day has been rather impaired,
And I feel like my world is ending,
He lets me know that someone still cares.
So he's stupid and entertaining,
A lummox, a messy lazy slob,
He's cuddly he's cute and he's friendly,
Best of all he's MY furry blob.

He sounds like a really sweet pussycat and maybe smarter than you think! He's got you where he wants you, after all.
