I’m a tuxie cat with incessant demands,
But I am way too cute to reprimand.
I prey on my humans’ very last nerves
Until I get the tummy rubs I deserve.
They claim that I’m a great big pest,
But I know they think that I’m the best
Of all the cats who live in our house
No matter how much and loudly they grouse.
So I’ll keep on begging for their attention
To get another petting and loving session.
And if you need coaching to get this too,
Just send a note to me…Mauricio Blue.
Giveaway for Simon’s Cat Off too the Vet
We are giving away one copy of British cartoonist Simon Tofield’s new book. It is 240 pages of laugh-out-loud hilarity, including 49 pages (many in full color) of a trip to the vet that goes terribly wrong. To read my review and leave a comment for the chance to win a copy, click here.
You are a very talented little poet, Mau!
You must be related somehow to Pipo, MOL! He’s always begging fur belly rubs and all the attention he can get!
You are a sweetie, Mauricio, yes, you are; and we know you know it too, MOL!
Mauricio, you have a tummy that looks very pettable and an enticing look to go with it.
OH MY COD!!!

Great poem. Love the belly!
–Purrs (and wags) from Life with Dogs and Cats
That is a fantastic poem 🙂
We like! V and 2cats2
Love the poem but really love the photos of you Mau!
MOL! What a great poem, Mau. The mom says if you substituted tabby for tuxie, this poem coulda been about me too! 😀 ~Wally
You are the king, Mauricio!!! All of us kitties could take a note from you! Mom and Dad say that we are all pests… but hey, we always get what we want, so we must be doing something right, right? 😉
Sampy sends a kiss for every tummy rub every given to a kitty, and we all send lots of love and hugs!
You certainly are way too cute to reprimand!!
Great poem, Mauricio, we love it ! Purrs
You are a poet Mauricio! Love your work and your lovely face.
You sure are something Mau!
What a great poem! And, Mauricio, you look marvelous! 😀

Squeeeeeel! You have the most adorable tummy ever. M wants to give it a big smooch! You are a good poet too.
Super duper poem Mau…….and I think (no – I KNOW!) that Allie would agree with the cute part….!! I hope all of us get tummy rubs and hugs when we need them the most – giving our humans “THE LOOK” usually works pretty well for all of us!
Hugs, Sammy
You’re a poet and we didn’t know it!! But we know it now and will be watching for all your future works – especially about our favorite subjects…deserved tummy rubs!
Excellent poetry and the pics were great too!
Sending you virtual bellah rubs from our Mommy.
XOXO
I love your poem, Mauricio! You are a persistent guy… and it sounds like you need to be!
