The last one is just great, I really did laugh at the last line. I love it! 

Hello again! Here's a new poem I just wrote about my cat, Marley: lithe limbs constructed to hunt, leap, chase, and prowl curl atop my bed throw  and with a little wiggle  and slow blinking eyes she rests to nap at my feet

wow that is interesting! maybe love bites and licking is related to a deeper hunger and taste for human flesh... 

Love this thread, just spent a long time skimming and reading the stories. Thank you so much for sharing. I would love to do volunteer work some day. I think it would be hard to part with the cats after getting to know them, but knowing they are going to forever homes would be comforting, and...

Marley is obsessed with traipsing around the kitchen counters and dining room table, but usually ignores food, unless there's an open tub of butter. When she joins me downstairs for breakfast I have to be careful eating cereal--if I stop paying attention, a little paw will try reaching into my...

My movie would be a low budget drama/comedy that's flamed by critics but gains a niche cult following

@Angels mommy  No worries!  I do that too lol. If I'm writing a lot for a few days or in a good flow, though, I rhyme without knowing it, then look back and see I've already got a rhythm.  Your poem about Sammy is beautiful and heart-wrenching. Have you ever looked into poetic meter? I think...

I'm on my phone so I can't reply with formatting, but you should look up rhymezone.com! I use it all the time when I get stuck on words. It's a godsend.

Here is a new poem I wrote today. It's unfinished, and I'm not sure where to go from here. I'll probably leave it for a few days. Any input would be greatly appreciated!  A Tree’s Lifespan   A tree’s lifespan  does not stop when its branches bare; if that were the case, then every winter...

I'm sorry to hear about Sammy, I hope things work out.  Have you tried freewriting? It's really helped with my writing block. I will just write a line of poetry and run with it for paragraphs until I stop.  http://writing2.richmond.edu/writing/wweb/freewrite.html

I've made up songs for my cats too! They're pretty short and simple but I love singing them to my cats....and I tell myself they love it too ;)  Have you written a poem about Sammy yet? (If you posted one in your thread about her I must not have seen it.) I've written poems about my cats...

Thanks guys! I'll try these suggestions and update with how the kitties respond. 

Hello! My two 4 year olds have been eating the same Meow Mix since they were kittens. They have a habit of puking after eating. It's always whole pieces of food, so I think they just aren't chewing/swallowing correctly, they always eat fast.  They behave perfectly healthy otherwise.  Is there...

I could see myself getting sea sick, just because the idea of being so far in open water is terrifying to me, but because of that I'll probably never know if I'd get sick.   I'm fine with other modes of transportation. My little sister has had car sickness trouble her entire life. One of my...

Thank you! I'll have to dust off all my poems and clean some up.. I haven't been writing as much as I used to, it'll be nice to have encouragement.   

Hello! I have a lot of poems I can share, but for now here's something small from a doc that's currently open: december suspended  by a thread of sudden calm:  a neighborhood awash  in evening blue  with points of light framed  by windowpane, scattered  like lanterns hovering over  an oceanic...

I've never heard of a grooming mitten, I'll have to try one. I think it might work. Thanks for the suggestion    I'll update on how my cats respond once I get one!
