Shady Cat Can’t Can
Shady Cat woke up hungry
So she went to the kitchen and cried for food
But no food came…the house was empty,
and so was her poor stomach!
Shady Cat did not give up.
She jumped up onto the counters
searching for food where sometimes it was left
“Ahah!” she cried, “A can of cat food!”
But the can was closed tight.
Shady cat scratched at it.
She threw it off the counter to the floor.
She threw it against the wall.
She threw it outside down the stairs
and jumped on it and bit it.
She rolled it about and pounced,
clubbing it with her paw.
Shady cat was starting to have fun!
But her stomach still growled with hunger
And the can was not opening.
But Shady Cats are clever and she knew what to do.
She took the can in her mouth,
carrying it like a kitten,
to the sidewalk outside her house.
She put the can at her feet and
Started yelling at every person that passed-
“Mraoowww!! Mraooowwww!! Mraowwwwwwww!”
Until finally someone stopped to help her!
This human is not so bad, she thought
as they used their hands to open up the can
and placed it directly under her nose.
“Nope!” Cried Shady Cat, yelling at the human,
“I don’t like this kind!”
