Now You See Me, Now You Don’t

There are very few times

when a cat wants to be seen.

If your attention is needed,

you will know what I mean.

When I am napping and hunting

or eating or sleeping

your voice is not needed

and your face not worth seeing.

I hide for a reason

and no matter how you call

I will not respond or come

I don’t look like a dog at all.

So here are the rules,

there are two times we should meet,

if ever there is poop on my butt,

or every time I need a treat.
