A Cat Speaks

Some humans may blame my kind for small birds and small animals extinction But of the demise of the thylacine the passenger pigeon and great auk we cannot claim the distinction And the dodo of Mauritius was clubbed to death by sailors many decades ago Than us felines humans to wildlife a far greater foe To our credit we keep down the population of mice and of rats And humans kill far more endangered species of wildlife than cats Though at us some humans like to point the finger of blame The destruction of natural habitat is not to our shame As the spokes cat for cats in truth i can say That humans kill far more creatures every day Yes humans far more animals and birds and fish do kill Than cats do and as long as there are creatures left to kill they always will That us cats can be ruthless happens to be true But many humans are even more ruthless this is to give them their due But we share one thing in common it does seem to me Many humans kill for enjoyment and pleasure and so too do we.
