Pleasing the Persian Cat

How to please a Persian cat?

Perhaps a bit of poetry would defrost her highness.

An autumn day-- but to win this Persian's heart one must begin with a bouquet, crafted neatly into a poem, and then purred with great care.

Roses are red, but since cats are colorblind anyway, a blueberry bush might do.

'Blueberries are red...'

Blueberries are red, and violets are... violet.

That's got her attention. What? Violets are indeed violet!

Blueberries are red, and violets are violet...

An autumn day, and I'm wrecking this attempt at poetic wordplay-- nothing rhymes with 'violet'.

Here, my Persian princess, is a poem for my dearest colorblind feline:

Blueberries are red, and violets are too,

Here, I got you some canned cat food.

LOL...pretty darn funny and beautiful cat!!

She is, it lets her get away with a lot!

I can totally relate = )

persian cats are just perfection. keep sharing such interesting posts 😀

Yes this cat is near perfect!

AHAHA! Man, cats are so hard to please. They're probably the worst (or best) audience for comedy. If you're able to make them laugh, it's either you're the world's best comedian or you're cheating. Cat food is in no way a cheat. You do you, Paul. You do you.

It wasn't cheating, maybe-- perhaps the food happened coincidentally, and we both welcomed the relief that it offered from the "poem". She would probably have laughed at the food-related ending if she had internet, might have even up-voted if she felt lightly amused by it.

Perhaps the food was always there. Whether we didn't pay any attention to it, or whether the cat just suddenly developed a liking to it.

Oh God, reading that gives me a lot more confidence in my poetry attempts, hahahaha.
Blueberries are red, violets are too, I got you canned cat food now go take a poo.
Sleep deprivation, inevitable that I will turn into an eight year old!

violets are violet and blueberries are blue, we'll teach this colorblind kitty if it's the last thing we do!
Stop me now.

It's not that easy to write eh? I knew I could end the poem with that food, it didn't have to be eloquent or pretty with such props handy.

doesn't seems to be pleased ;p

Not until I'd pulled the top off of the tin!

Cute.

I found some words for you hehehe

Amulet
Beamlet
circlet
eyelet
toilet

I had help. I used litscape.com hehe It found 128 words that end in -let.

You can also go with non-conventional rhyming...

Parapet
bucket
let
met
Boba Fett

Who knows, maybe that last one would get a reaction from her.

Oh I could have used 'beamlet', she is a little one of those for sure! 'Toilet' would have been good, but is actually an issue with this cat, so it probably wouldn't have been appropriate in her head, even with the quality rhyme it creates. The food that I whipped out meant that I had finished her poem early, and she was fine with it.

Ah then, all is well :)

That is one very beautiful cat... small wonder she believes she's the queen of everything...

She takes it beyond just belief; she knows that she is the queen.

Oh she is a beauty!! I had to scroll back up to read the text as I rushed through the pics. Lol @tinned cat food!

It's your turn to make a poem for the cat now, you have some steep competition with my sophisticated rhymes....lol!!

Lol, a rhyme eh. It's been a while since I exercised those muscles!

She is a beauty, but she wasn't impressed at all 'til I whipped out the tin.

So was the cat satisfied with the poem and with the can? xD
Your post made me want to say 'awww'

She forgot the poem when she heard me pull the top, so all was forgiven!

Absolutely hilarious! :D

Glad you liked!
