May 12 is National Limerick Day!
Here are a few that I made up using a limerick-creating app, which I've promptly forgotten:
Henry
There once was a cat named Henry,
Whose whiskers were long and quite fancy.
He’d pounce on a mouse,
Then lounge in the house,
A feline both bold and so dandy!

Da Boyz
Two black cats, twins sleek and sly,
In moonlight would prowl and then fly.
With eyes gleaming bright,
They vanished from sight—
Mischief kings under night’s velvet sky!
Eastside Cats
There once were some Eastside Cats,
Who lounged on their sunny mats.
With whiskers so bright,
They purred through the night,
And chased all the neighborhood rats.
An additional bit of comedy in the Irish vein:

Henry Update:
Our dear boyo has had diarrhea for too long, so off we went to the vet's office Monday morning.
He's been lethargic too, so we made additions to his med routine:
New antibiotic (on order).
Return to daily steroids.
Fiber supplement.
Weighed in at 10.68 lbs; he was 9.16 lbs on April 20. 👍🏻
He put up a fight getting into that crate, which I always take as a good sign! 👍🏻
Follow-up vet visit in a month. 👍🏻
Henry is a trooper, and although he hid under the dresser when first home again, he reappeared after only a short while, ate everything (including his new fiber supplement), and asked for brushies, which he most certainly received.
Someone managed to wrench her back while loading that carrier, and a nice late afternoon out-of-nowhere nap with The H Man snugged up against was just the ticket!
