Rudyard Kipling - The Cat That Walked by Himself
Work rating: Low

Pussy can sit by the fire and sing,
          Pussy can climb a tree,
        Or play with a silly old cork and string
           To `muse herself, not me.
        But I like Binkie my dog, because
           He knows how to behave;
        So, Binkie`s the same as the First Friend was,
           And I am the Man in Cave! 
        
        Pussy will play Man Friday till
          It`s time to wet her paw
        And make her walk on the window-sill
          (For the footprint Crusoe saw)  
        Then she fluffles her tail and mews,
          And scratches and won`t attend.
        But Binkie will play whatever I choose,
          And he is my true First Friend!

        Pussy will rub my knees with her head
          Pretending she loves me hard;
        But the very minute I go to my bed
          Pussy runs out in the yard,
        And there she stays till the morning-light;
          So I know it is only pretend;
        But Binkie, he snores at my feet all night,
          And he is my Firstest Friend!
