He blesses us all every day with his presence
Never worrying about causing mischief or messes
He teaches us all about a cat’s carefree life
He also loves, is protective and growls with might

His name is Icarus and he's the third cat
With his paws and agile nature, he fears not even the swing of the heaviest bat
He has the energy of a hurricane or some other storm
Despite his independence, and wanting to escape
His love and constant attention will keep you warm
He's Icarus the Japanese Bobtail so make no mistake
Dependable and loving, I know he watches me until I wake
