MILKING TIME

MILKING TIME

** Image ID #889703 Unavailable **

Just my luck to be a farmer's cat,
who thinks I'm just a tad too fat;
that I should take a pail or two and
help with the milking he's got to do!

My cousin Sammy lives in the city,
says he eats garbage - that's not pretty!
So I'll do my share and then I'll try
to get the cream - it's do or die!

The farmer's wife thinks its a joke,
calls the farmer a mean old bloke;
She'll pick me up and pat my head,
and feed me some cat food instead.

But I don't mind, I think it's great
that I can try to earn what I ate;
If a cow can stand and not tail-swat,
I'm sure I can get milk fresh and hot!

The moral of my little "tail" is this:
Life isn't all just fun and bliss;
Sometimes we have to earn our keep
before we're full and fast asleep!
