Cat Haiku

[katladyd]

It is July Fourth
My people have a party.
New laps to jump on!

This one's allergic
To my awesome kitty fur.
Up we go to love!

[RICHARD]

An august heat wave
I can spend the day napping.
At night? I wake up!

I love the night time.
I watch my outdorr friends then.
Dad will never know!:D

[katladyd]

Smoke fills the blue sky
Our eyes water all the time
Many lives are lost:(

[RICHARD]

Me gotz new kittehs
too or-ung an too blk onez
Need mor cheezburgers!

Kittehs surprize?
I not c dem till too dai!
Stil need cheezeburgers!

[RICHARD]

Small baby Kittehs
Living underneath my house.
Smitten by Kittens?:love::D

[RICHARD]

Terrorist kittehs.
Show no mercy on my plants.
I planted, they came.

My seedlings? Not safe.
Pot soil, spread across landscape!
Broom? gardening tool?:eek::D

[RICHARD]

Little baby cats-
Are faster than the old man-
They scurry, I chase. http://www.yellowbullet.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_eyes.gif

[cassiesmom]

Cassie's new "fave" thing
Fancy Feast, nightly, bedtime
Must have every day.

I noticed my cat
In the bathroom staring at
A cricket! Inside!

[RICHARD]

Edster is napping.
He wakes, someone is yelling!
Football fans are loud.:eek:

His favorite team?
The hand with cheese, salty chips.
Just food! not football!

Crazy Raider fans.
Dad laughs at all the costumes.
Silliness is good!:eek::D

[RICHARD]

Cold weather has come.
I awake, sleeping cat on me.
Must wait to go p--.:eek:

-------------

Microfiber cat.
So why must I wait my turn?
Fiber greedy cat.

----------------

Late in the day sun
I fall asleep in doorway.
Biped! Watch your feet.:mad:

[RICHARD]

Cold weather? Warm Cat!
Asleep on my shoulder, back.
I must roll over.:eek:

[cassiesmom]

Thanksgiving comes soon
Grandmeowmie makes sure Cassie
Gets some turkey too.

An extra day off
on Friday, but Cassie will
still want breakfast early!

[RICHARD]

Reform the health care?
Aspirin, blankets and a cat.
That is all I need!:D

[RICHARD]

Cat puke on keyboard?
If caught early, has no effect
on my keyboard skills.

Some crayon colors
Green, orange, tan and textured!
Like some Warhol art?

---------

Fake colored cat food-
Makes for colorful cat poop.
And makes me panic!:eek:

[RICHARD]

Patches of sunlight.
Please watch where you are stepping.
Cat naps on the floor.

Sun arcs thru the sky.
Cat follows sunny baked spots
Then stays up all night.:eek::rolleyes::D

[slick]

Your sacred ashes
Sleeping in the painted urn
Comfort me with love

[RICHARD]

Freezing my rear off
The Edster seems to sense this.
I share my warm bed.

The fireplace roars.
The spot in front, occupied?
Cat dreams, being dreamt.

[Barbara]

Birds in the snow come
close to the window where cats
chatter: cat TV

[RICHARD]

Birds in the snow come
close to the window where cats
chatter: cat TV

Hi Definition
Wide Screen, surround sound, 3D?
No remote control?

Poor cats have to watch
Nature's programming all day.
With NO commercials.:D

[katladyd]

Getting up for work
The Siamese wants food now!
They are so thoughtful

[cassiesmom]

One six hour nap
In front of a fireplace-
Caliente gato! :eek:

Big hugs for you, Edward D., caliente gato!

[phesina]

Your sacred ashes
Sleeping in the painted urn
Comfort me with love

This is lovely. Thank you.

[cassiesmom]

Freezing my rear off
The Edster seems to sense this.
I share my warm bed.




Freezing my rear off
Cassie, sensing this, lets me
share her nice warm bed.

[Barbara]

Snow is gone for now
Spring is in the air and cats
Forget the heater.

[katladyd]

Cat is on my feet
Another is on my chest
Sleeping soundly now

[RICHARD]

Cat is on my feet
Another is on my chest
Sleeping soundly now

Nature's heating pads-
Enviromentally good.
And human friendly.


-------

Ed naps all day long.
Later, becomes a night owl.
Can I gain lost sleep?:(;)

[cassiesmom]

Time to wrap our gifts,
Kitty must inspect them first...
Cat hair on each one.

[Karen]

January sun
Shines through the eastern window
It is mine alone

[cassiesmom]

Meowm in the bathroom
Brushes teeth, puts makeup on
I join her in there


:love:

[Karen]

You, there, checking mail-
You want to take me home, right?
Purr, purr, rub rub rub

(A regular scene with one of the neighbor cats - do not worry, he's a handsome, loved and owned boy, a pale yellow tabby with a collar, bell and a home, but whenever he is out, he'll befriend anyone who talks to him, especially me!)

[cassiesmom]

Cassie has me trained.
Food at 4 AM each day
Sometimes earlier.



Wrote that long ago
But she still gets fed this way,
Cat's habits don't change.

[Karen]

Wrote that long ago
But she still gets fed this way,
Cat's habits don't change.

Cat's habits are carved
In granite. Until poof! A
Whim wipes them away

[cassiesmom]

Today's COTD Princess China Origami Haiku got me thinking about this thread...

source: hbprr.org

The food in my bowl
Is old, and more to the point
Contains no tuna.

There's no dignity
In being sick - which is why
I don't tell you where.


Am I in your way?
You seem to have it backwards:
This pillow's taken.

The dog wags his tail,
Seeking approval. See mine?
Different message.

My brain: walnut-sized.
Yours: largest among primates.
Yet, who leaves for work?

Most problems can be
Ignored. The more difficult
Ones can be slept through.

[phesina]

Oh, these are great! Thanks, Elyse.

[Karen]

Cat at the window
Observes falling snow in cool
Rapt fascination

Humans struggle with
Boots, mittens, hat and scarf just
To leave the warm hearth

Return frostbitten,
Cat food in hand; cat, aloof
Refuses the gift

[mbsmum]

Great Karen

[katladyd]

I see your new purse
It is made of soft leather
Time to sharpen claws

[cassiesmom]

Time to wrap our gifts,
Kitty must inspect them first...
Cat hair on each one.

Oh, my, how I miss
having a kitty helper
to wrap Christmas gifts.

[phesina]

That's PURRRFECT, Elyse! Thank you!

:love::love::love::love::love::love::love::love:

[Karen]

That wasps taunts me as
It climbs the morning window
Pounce! Missed again, drat!

In honor of #NationalHaikuDay
