Doggy
stifles her bark,
swallows her yip,
keeps her yapping
under control
when IT walks by.
Tail high,
whiskers twitching
the neighbor's cat
saunters and struts
in front of our window
- in front of doggy -
full of
CAT-titude!
Doggy tries
to hold it in.
Tries to look
the other way.
But she can't.
She unleashes a
cacophony of
yips,
yaps,
barks,
growls -
showing HER attitude
toward cats.
Love that CAT-titude, Bridget. I see that it's the neighbor's cat, but our own cat did this now & then with our dogs! You captured it well!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! We have some very sassy cats around our 'hood and poor Smidgey tries not to bark at them...but she just can't hold it in. The cats love it. =)
