Excerpt from Werner's Readings and Recitations, Vol. 35: Cats and Kittens
She puts her little velvet paws Right up to me so them I'll shake; And if she is just fast asleep, I never cry for her to wake.
I take her for my very own And have for her the nicest house, Where she can stay when night is come As still and quiet as a mouse.
She's not a common kind of cat, She is Angora, yes, she is; And when I smooth her back and tail, She winks, and purrs, and plays with me.
And then I buy (now don't you laugh) A thing no other kitten's got, A nursing-bottle, with a mouth From which she drinks her milk when hot.
Oh! She is really very nice, I hope she'll never run away; For if she does, I cannot tell What I would do, or think, or say.
