I had two cats - one proper, one more stuffed toy. They grew old - I thought they'd like a friend. We found black kitten, lost, ugly, not fluffy, no-one wanted her. Ah, sweet I thought. How wrong. She rules the roost - no peace for oldies. I brought the very devil home.

"....Fire on the mountain, run boys run
The devil's in the house of the rising sun
Chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny does your dog bite, no child no...."
maybe the old cats win in the end??..
One day, the black cat will reveal what plans it hads for you...
if you awaken to a howling wind, and that black cat is sitting quietly on your pillow, and looking intently at your eyes, waiting for something... then you know TROUBLE is afoot...
you know what they say mims; the devil can only knock, somebody has to open the door for him to come in
well thank you for filling me with confidence about the role of small fierce! She's only sweet these days when Offy sends her fish.
commenting on all these little gems is a bit like tiptoeing through a poetic minefield isn't it, if you look through all the threads you can see our temporal footsteps as we move from one to the other
other stuff is a living thing!
'Minefield' is a bit hostile and explosive though, mm? More of a poetic cabbage patch perhaps?
well poetic mines, filled with syllables and meters, synonyms and diphthongs, just awaiting to go

By using the stenner method with a double reversal on all consanants and adding modern keyboard eccentrics, your message reads (with apologies to Mayan scholars):
[8esyaslkd: "only the linely"
jf=sajdfoaw8u: "know the whey I feels"
tq3457osdfhpa9sfasldfj[qa:
"tonight bum dumd doody doo wah"
ergtual: "....aint rite"...
Where's the fish?
Fish? On a thread about cats? That would be a little bit like bringing a tapir into the taproom at tea time, don't you think?
That Tapir will haunt me for the rest of my life, I think. But what great alliteration Offy. Wordsmiths of the world unite!
"....there goes my baby!!!" 'greater than' symbol: emphasis 'lesser than' symbol
"dup dup do wah...."
