Cats’ lives are ninefold / Or so it seems —
One life is for real / And eight in their dreams.
.
They prowl through the night / And play their games
Teasing the dogs / Restrained by their chains.
But if dog’s a stranger / And beckons cats on
Beware of the danger / Or one cat life is gone!
Eight lives then are left / But what is nice
Teasing a dog / Was well worth the price.
