What to Wear for a Catnap
My cat’s pyjamas look so smart
worn casually all day,
with slippers lined in softest fur
and dressing gown, dove grey.
The tailor cut the stylish lines
to suit a slinky frame,
then trimmed the collar in white fluff
and made the cuffs the same.
There’s really nothing like a cat
to model sleep attire,
while stretching out upon the bed
or lounging by the fire.
worn casually all day,
with slippers lined in softest fur
and dressing gown, dove grey.
The tailor cut the stylish lines
to suit a slinky frame,
then trimmed the collar in white fluff
and made the cuffs the same.
There’s really nothing like a cat
to model sleep attire,
while stretching out upon the bed
or lounging by the fire.
