FELINE HAIKUS

Fluid grace and poise
Infinite patience and calm
Until something moves!

Nocturnal hunter
Silent as a falling leaf
Fears Vacuum Cleaners!

The bird's so lonely
In its cage. You should let it
Out to play with me!

Christmas time is great!
Piles of deep wrapping paper
To slide and hide in

You don't leash a cat!
It's against our nature and
You don't like to bleed!

Superb night vision
Wrapped in sinew and plush fur
Noisy late at night!

Up high in my tree
Big, dumb dog not looking up
Pushing off!.... BANZAI!!!!

Flat face, azure eyes
Perpetual motion that
Curls up in your palm.

Cats don't beg like dogs
We sit and gaze until we
Get what we desire!

That's a cute haiku, Jack, thanks.

Here is one that isn't mine, lol.

You never feed me.
Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.

I need a new toy.
Tail of black dog keeps good time.
Pounce! Good dog! Good dog!

The rule for today:
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.

In deep sleep hear sound;
Cat vomit hairball somewhere.
Will find in morning.

Grace personified,
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.

Blur of motion. then--
Silence, me, a paper bag.
What is so funny?

The mighty hunter
Returns with gifts of plump birds--
Your foot just squashed one.

You're always typing.
Well, let's see you ignore my
sitting on your hands.

My small cardboard box.
You cannot see me if I
can just hide my head.

Kitty like plastic.
Confuses for litter box.
Don't leave tarp around.

Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes
Fear vacuum cleaner

Want to trim my claws?
Don't even think about it!
My yelps will wake dead.

I want to be close
To you. Can I fit my head
Inside your armpit?

Wanna go outside.
Oh, no! Help! I got outside!
Let me back inside!

Humans are so strange.
Mine lies still in bed, then screams!
My claws aren't that sharp...

Cats meow out of angst
"Thumbs! If only we had thumbs!
We could break so much!"

Litter box not here.
You must have moved it again.
I'll poop in the sink.

These are great Jack! "Feline Haikus" make my Mondays a little brighter.

Nocturnal hunter
Silent as a falling leaf
Fears Vacuum Cleaners!

Ain't that the truth. When Motley sees the vacuum come out of the closet and get turned on, her ears go back, she gets low to the floor and makes a beeline for under my bed.

Lion cubs are just the cutest.
