Paws for Hire!

by Kitty the Great

Scratching in my litter box
Mountains growing higher
At lightening speed, my little sox
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!

Scratching on my climbing post
Wrapped with cord and wire
Shredding twine with claws o' mine
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!

Scratching in my dinner dish
Why? You might inquire...
Mixing makes it most delish!
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!

Scratching on the newspaper
Confetti's my desire!
Ripping it to tiny pieces
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!

Scratching at the door of screen
The gaping hole I do admire...
Now, who needs a kitty door?
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!

Scratching IS what we do best...
From birth 'til we retire
It's a gift with which we're blessed
Paws for Hire! Paws for Hire!
