I prowl the alley on dark nights, looking for trouble spots and fights
And hissing, spitting, yowling, loud, my claws and fangs splitting the crowd,
So don’t be fooled if I look fine: wildfire is in my feline line–
My zoot suit is as cool as ice; my blood, though? Hot, not cool; not nice–
I’m fast, I’m fine, the cat that has searchlights for eyes, wild stripes for jazz,
A heart of iron, soul of steel, and toughness that’s dead deep, for real–
I’m fuzzy, but I warn you that I ain’t no prissy pussycat;
I’m lean and mean; I’m slick and sleek. But sweet? I’ll kick you to next week!
Get me riled up, it won’t be pretty–Bad Cat, yeah, but never Kitty–
All the same, at home a tub of cream is nice; a belly rub;
I’m tiger tough, to say the least, but hey! I ain’t no senseless beast–
Don’t cross me, ’cause I’m fierce, although I’m not an animal, you know!
This was amazing, made me smile… Thank you dear, have a nice weekend, love, nia
I’m glad you got to visit with a cat over here, since I so often get to see wonderful ones at your blog!! Good that mine made you smile, too, my dear Nia.
Love,
Kathryn

The cat sure is mean and cool. Nice drawing.
I’ve met quite a few cats with a bit of his attitude! Glad you enjoyed him. 🙂
I adore this feline with attitude to spare!
Cats can be quite inspiring sometimes, when it comes to being boldly individualistic–at least some of the cats I’ve known. 🙂
That’s one scraggly yet neatly bedraggly cat you drew into existence.
