CAT PHILES

Memories and Friends

Herding Cats

They say you cannot herd cats!
Yet I do it every day and have never lost a one
I will tell you how

In the morning the kitties gather round
Freddie on the foot of the bed, Inky in the corner,
Tommy sits by the door watching the kittens race about

"Come along children" starts the parade
Down the stairs we go, one cat before another behind,
The kittens frolicking underfoot

Pad, pad, pad, thumpa, thumpa, thumpa
Down the basement stair
Meow, meow, meow. Purr, purr, purr.

Breakfast Daddy, what are we having for breakfast?
