Pixel

Hi!! I'm Pixel. My Daddy Bud rescued me from a parking lot when I was just a baby. I was cold, wet, hungry & lonely, but Daddy took care of all my problems. He took me in and he gives me lots of love. I also have two dog friends named Mr. Tee & Lady. I am a happy cat.....purrrrrrrrrrr. Hey! I had a poem written about me. Wanna see it? It was written by a special friend of my daddy. Her name is Bev, and she sure is nice! Only thing is...Well, when Daddy Bud found me, he thought I was a girl! hee hee hee. So he named me Pixie! Then the nice lady, Bev, wrote a poem about some of my antics! (I do get a bit mischievous sometimes. :o) Anyway...when Daddy found out that I was a male, Bev asked him if that meant I was now Pixel. That's how I got my new name! So, here is the poem when everyone thought I was a girl!

There once was this guy named Bud,
Who found a kitten in the scrub.
He took her to his  home,
She no longer would roam,
And always have plenty of grub.

Bud was seriously smitten,
With the antics of his little kitten,
"Pixie," he named her.
And she would just purr,
With all the attention she was gettin'.

Bud's shoulder was her favorite place,
To hold court, right there by his face,
So proudly she'd ride,
She didn't need to hide,
She ruled with glory and grace.

Getting on his shoulder was the thing,
For her tiny claws they did sting.
She dug them right in,
As she climbed upon him,
Unaware of the pain she did bring.

One morning when Bud did awake.
A shower he prepared to take,
Pixie thought a climb,
Then would be sublime,
Tho' perhaps she made a mistake.

As Bud was preparing his shower,
Miss Pixie eyed her fair bower,
But, Buds pink bare skin,
Allowed for little traction,
Claw marks left a trail to her tower.

She had just made it to her seat,
When the shower water she did meet,
You should have seen the surprise
That registered from her eyes,
As she beat one hasty retreat!!
