MY PECULIAR KITTY
I have a little kitty,
Just as cute as she can be;
But my! she is peculiar!
For she eats her catnip tea!
After every meal she eats
She tidies up her head,
And washes carefully enough;—
But she never makes her bed!
I’m told a kitty cannot talk,
But my kitty every day
Tells me that she loves me
When we are at our play!
Yes, she tells me very plainly
And I will tell you how,—
I ask, “Who thinks a lot of me?”
She answers, “Me! Me—ow!”
