Sometimes I say ‘Hello little girl’.

Other times I call her ‘Sweet Pea’.

But when I say the name she arrived with,

she takes no notice of me.

 

She responds to me when I ask ‘Are you hungry?’

and begs me for Dreamies as her dessert.

I empty her litter tray twice daily,

but when I clip her claws, she goes quite berserk.

 

She lets me carry her outside to her Catio,

which I erected as a surprise.

I win her over in there, when I brush her,

until the devil arrives in her eyes.

 

She certainly isn’t one to be cuddled,

and prefers her Dad, because he sits and reads.

I am merely a servant to both of them.

but love them to bits – they fulfil all my needs.

 

Sometimes I call her ‘Little Madam’.

Other times I tell her she’s a curse.

And when her Dad gets very possessive with her,

sometimes I call him  something far worse!

 

In the end we all gel together,

and exist in our own separate ways.

And our rescue cat, formerly known as Lucky,

fits in nicely and brightens our days.
