Christmas is Coming.

Christmas is coming
And Bonzi’s getting fat
He stole a piece of chicken;
He’s good at doing that.
He’s teaching to that Izzy
The tricks he’s learned to do.
And she is keeping busy
Learning things anew.
Keeping cats at Christmas
A right old pair of thieves,
They’ll steal the milk from porridge
Without a by your leaves.
I wouldn’t be without them,
The pesky rotten pair
Keep me warm in winter
Perhaps they really care.

Thieving cats

When you have a breakfast bar....
And you cook some chicken
Put the lid on the pan
When you leave it to cool
Otherwise a ginger tom
Dips his snout into your dinner

But watch him sit and try to wash his mouth
When he discovers that you like vindaloo

I love it! Is Bonzi going to

I love it!
Is Bonzi going to demand equal time and do one about you, from his perspective?

Keeping you warm

As the old saying goes there is more than one way to skin a cat and there is also more than one way for a thieving cat to keep you warm. Hat, gloves, scarf, slippers, or a nice bowl of hot tastes like chicken soup.
Only kidding,

Although I would question the use of the word "Nonsense" - it makes perfect sense to me - creatures of the canine variety have also been known to get up to the same tricks as your felines...

Oh, and if anyone acquires a gluttonous breed of dog, especially a labrador, keep them well away from ponds / lakes. Not so much because they'll dive in, but they'll spot all the breadcrumbs lying around on the banks, and assume not that they've been put there for their exclusive benefit. Even if they've just had a slap-up meal, they can rarely resist the temptation to hoover up as many breadcrumbs as possible before they go to waste (e.g. being consumed by what they obviously regard as a lesser breed of creature than numero uno.)

Our pets - how they entertain. :-)

Now, if I could manage to take the dog for a walk (instead of a drag)... (Hmm, you think when I stop pretending to be a guy outside in town this dog'll stop being a drag? I'd hate to think his slow walking was do to my cross-dressing as a guy.)

You may be receiving a phone call from Andrew Lloyd Webber:

If the area window was found ajar
And the basement looked like a field of war
If a tile or two came loose on the roof
Which presently ceased to be waterproof
If the drawers were pulled out from bedroom chests
And you couldn't find one of your winter vests
Or after supper one of the girls
Suddenly missed her Woolworth pearls

Then the family would say, "It's that horrible cat!
It was Mungojerrie or Rumpleteazer!"
And most of the time they left it at that

So, are Bonzi and Izzy Jellicle cats?
