Games of a Much Loved Cat


Another poem I wanted to share which I wrote

My favourite games are simple and sweet
I am happy with a ball of wool or string
Chasing it across the floor
Trailing like a mouse’s tail.

A toy on a pole is brilliant fun
Flying high above me
I want to catch it!
Because it is my prey!

Ping pong balls rolling around
Trying to escape from the brave hunter!
Feathers tickling my paws
Waiting for me to pounce on them!

A cardboard tube, maybe hiding something
I’m sure there’s a mouse in there!
Cardboard boxes for a quick nap
Maybe there’s something in there!

My old favourite, a catnip mouse
Sat waiting to be hunted
The killing bite is all good fun
But you’ll never guess what my favourite is!

My favourite toy makes all others alive
Scurrying across the floor
Hiding in things
Trying to hide behind things.

Have you guessed my favourite toy?
It’s not my mouse or my ball!
It’s not my string or feathers!
My favourite toy is you!
