Yet another song for those owned by cats.

I saw beneath my tree...
2 mangled garlands and
my 12 cats laughing at me.

On the third day of Christmas,
I saw beneath my tree...
3 missing Wise Men
2 mangled garlands
and my 12 cats laughing at me.

3 missing Wise Men
2 mangled garlands
and my 12 cats laughing at me.
