It’s tax season, folks. I wouldn’t want the IRS hunting you down because you forgot to pay your cat tax.
The Cat Tax
Always say hi to friendly neighborhood cats.
If the cat looks at or meows at you, then you are obligated to give it food.
If you do not have food with you, then you must pet the cat while apologizing profusely for your poor planning. Did you not think you’d run into a cat?! To make up for your transgressions, you then must buy food at the nearest store and disperse the food to all future neighborhood cats.
Feeling grumpy about having to pay your cat tax? Make no mistake, the cat tax is for your benefit. You will make hundreds of tiny little cat friends to boost your happiness.

Have you been paying your cat tax?
Laura ,
Such the lovely little ditty .
Thanks for adding to my Saturday morning reads .
And , by the way , have you read much of Philip Larkin's poetry .
If not , might I please recommend " Churchgoing " .
There are others , but that is a most excellent start .
He , also , is one of those rare poets whose reading of his poems is as excellent as the poem itself .
Have yourself a lovely Saturday morning in Greece .
Best
James
I love paying taxes
