best cat poem ever

Disabled

“Best” because it’s written by an eighteenth-century lunatic, in celebration of the divine aspects of his cat.

“For I will consider my cat Jeoffry”

(Yoinked from akashiver)

    I believe he also wrote “For the mouse is a creature of great personal valour.”

    Absolutely.

    Bits of that may be embroidered and hung upon my wall.

    I quite like, “For he will not do destruction, if he is well-fed.”

    Have you heard the Benjamin Britten setting, Rejoice in the Lamb?
    It includes both “For I will consider my cat Jeoffry” and “The mouse is a creature of great personal valour”.

    That poem is an Absolute Truth, or so I am informed by my feline overlords (and lady).
