My Mommy’s a Cat

My Mommy’s a cat, I’ve known this forever
Cuz mommies and kittens go so well together
Daddy says most ponies don’t understand
That cats can be the best moms in the land!

She wakes me up before school every day
With meows that mean that she just wants to play
I throw her a toy, it’s a mousie that squeaks,
And she bats it around with her paws while she speaks

She wakes up my Daddy by pouncing his bed
And then makes us breakfast with jelly on bread
Mom packs my lunch, Dad walks me to school
And I learn from my friends why my Mom is so cool

Most parents, you see, wear no collar or mask
So I’m not allowed to explain if they ask
My Mom is a pet, and I wish I could say
That I’m proud she’s so special in her feline way

But most ponies don’t get it and think she is weird
And Dad says the uncommon often is feared
But someday I hope that I can change their mind
And they’ll learn that my cat-mom and dad are so kind

I come home after school and my parents are there
Mom’s chasing a laser or curled up on a chair
And Dad’s petting my mom, or he’s cutting the grass
Then we talk about my friends and my teachers and class

Mom helps with my homework as day turns to night
She must be the world’s only cat who can write!
And Dad makes us dinner, which is a fun affair
Since Mommy is rarely allowed on her chair!

So she eats from her bowl while she grins ear to ear
You think that is odd? No,it’s quite normal here
We talk and we laugh, we play and we sing
Mom being a cat doesn’t change many things

Someday, Mommy says, I could be a pet too
Though it’s up to me what I’ll be and I’ll do
Yes, my Mommy’s a cat, but you know what I’ve found?
She’s the nicest pet ever, and the best mommy around!

Yet another guest chapter by Silent Whisper. The idea is this is meant to be a ditty from an 'Adult Foalbook' for CTS. This little piece was just so adorable I just had to draw art for it and share it. If you like it, please drop a comment for Silent Whisper and help encourage her to write more!
