HORSING AROUND

 

"Your moggy wasn't happy

behaving like a cat.

It hardly ever said 'Miaow',

and slimmed when it got fat.

​

It rarely touched a drop of milk,

and never caught a shrew;

so when you told us all the truth,

we kind of really knew.

​

Your pussy hated cat-life

and wished to be a horse,

copying Black Beauty

to be a star of course.

​

It wanted hoofs to gallop fast,

much faster than 'Red Rum,

and be the nation's favourite

to show this could be done.

​

New surgery was possible,

but saving up was tough.

It only saved 10 'Whiskas' tins,

and this was not enough.

​

The cat remained a cat throughout

its life which it did curse,

but sometimes dreams aren't possible -

even in a verse!
