My cat is entertaining
As he bolts and rolls
I smile and shake my head
My laughter I am not restraining
Lying on his back
And pawing the air
As though rolling an invisible ball
Now he’s racing as though on the attack
Leaping to the couch and soaring
To the rug with a half twist
Landing on all four paws…
I'd rate that a ten if I were scoring

This made me laugh out loud, Theresa! We have 8 cats AND hardwood floors in a huge house where my cats entertain us every day - slipping, sliding, and hiding in many obscure places! Thanks for posting this very funny poem!

Inky was a special cat Although she was more than that. For you see she could retrieve (This you must believe.) When a green bean from the fridge was selected For her alone, (it was suspected) And tossed across the oaken floor A goodly distance and much more, She in hot pursuit would go Catching it as it slid toward the door, Then in mouth she would kindly grasp And return to the sender (Oh so fast) As if to say, in a Cat's special way, Throw it again so we can continue to play! But when she tired of this game Her response was always the same, Ignore that pesty bean and let it lie (But always keeping it in a cat's eye) So that if you attempted To pick it up, she'd saved Just a bit of energy, all the same And was ready to restart the game. s
