No wait, is that cream on her lips,
whiskers and tail at the tips?
All cheese she has eaten
plus eggs shelled and beaten.
Smugly from fridge she now skips

curls up near the heating and steams,

Cheesy smell- was that a dream?
She's licked up the last of the cream.
Sitting there purring,
the heating still whirring -
her fur looks clean and pristine

then nature called,
she retched a fur ball
- signature, soiling the floor

then bought an igloo
for moggy and me.

An Inuit of frosty renown,
Found her igloo had melted all down.
A polar bear did it,
He had to admit it;
His pee was all over the ground.
