Litter box not here
You must have moved it again
Your shoe will be fine.
Humans are so strange
Mine lies still in bed, then screams!
My claws aren’t that sharp…
Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes.
Fear vacuum cleaner.
You never feed me
Perhaps I’ll sleep on your face
That will sure show you!
The rule for today
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.
