A Cat's Conscience by Unknown

A Cat's Conscience
by Unknown

A dog will often steal a bone,
But conscience lets him not alone,
And by his tail his guilt is known.

But cats consider theft a game,
And, howsoever you may blame,
Refuse the slightest sign of shame.

When food mysteriously goes,
The chances are that Kitty knows
More than she leads you to suppose.

And hence there is no need for you,
If puss declines a meal or two,
To feel her pulse and make ado!
