Very good poem. I liked the contemplation on the joys and problems of raising a kitten. I loved the ending where she decided to adopt both of them.

The anticipation of what a kitten would do to add to your life is so nice - you look at both the plus and minus but decided two pluses will make up for whatever minus activity might be involved. Nicely done.

WOW, first, that picture is so real, I have never seen cats with blue eyes.
You definitely wrote a beautiful description of your future kittens. Writing also about yourself, made it even such a beautiful sad story. Your rhyming, is great, for me , you are the winner. Terry

This is my second visit to your poem.. I think it's very good but I keep coming back to the last stanza and wondering about disrupted lawns.. somehow it's just not making sense to me.. please forgive me if I sound harsh, I don't mean to be.. it's just that I think it's quite good and should become excellent with that one small change.. how about After thinking through the pros and cons.. I think that with the coming dawn, I'm going to hide all my shoes.. cuz kittens are much better in two's.. just a thought

    Thanks for the review an the time you have taken to make suggestions.
    The line with disrupted lawns was one of the cons of having cats as they can ruin some lawns, But I do like your suggestion, so I may consider changing.

    thanks again.

Uh-oh! You've opted for double trouble, have you? Say so long to your draperies, and upholstery, and so long to anything hanging or dangling within their reach. They are a rambunctious lot!

Very well rhymed, and the tempo and flow was excellent.

Good luck to you in the contest.

This meets the whimsy of the kitty prompt splendidly. Double the pleasure and double the fun and they can amuse each other when you get tired of throwing the ball LOL. I wish you all the best in the voting and thank you so much for sharing this with me.

Your picture is so adorable. I like the way you described all the things the kitties do to occupy their time. Yes, I have seen mine do most of the same things especially falling down stairs and climbing chairs. I like how you told about the person living alone and wanting a kitty or two. Our pets are so important to us. They help us to live longer. No changes needed. Good job and good luck in the contest.

This is cute and clean. The wordings are just right for kids; easily understandable and explained. This poem could be a part of any child's nursery rhyme.

Since it touches on the subject of kittens, this piece will easily appeal to many kids in a wide age range. However, the writer also plans to have two kittens as house companions. This decision will not be regretted. Two balls of fur in the house means endless entertainment and joyful companionsship.
