Give me a moment and I’ll get over it!
I had a lovely sleepover and woke up in the dark.
Till Wobbly appeared; I knew just what she would say:
Out into the garden, darling, and do what you have to do. Quick now, on your way.
I thought she was joking, as it was pouring with rain.
I had three goes at it, before staying out long enough not to have to do it again.
In relief and delight that that was it for a while, I raced around the furniture,
Charging around the back of the couch, dragging myself, though causing no pain.
Missing Wobbly’s arms clutching a big quick-drying-me-up cloth; I avoided again.
It’s much more fun rolling on the carpet and giving the curtains a quick dry-me run.
I stopped at the food dish long enough to pick up a snack.
Before relaxing flat out on my back.
I told you I would get over it, as I am a very adaptable cat.
