 Title:
						Cat`astrophe
 
 
 Cat pepper hasn`t stopped it
 nor have cocktail sticks,
 The Chili powder didn`t work
 nor did the garlic mix.
 We then bought bark and laid it down
 round our new plants and flora
 but that was no deterrent to
 that ginger tom explorer.
 The special spray we then acquired
 we hoped that this would do
 but after spreading it around
 the cat came back to view.
 Orange peel and vinegar
 not very good though was it?
 the cat returned and scratched it up
 and left us a deposit`.
 So every day we clear it up-
 last visit’s aftermath,
 we tip it into plastic bags
 and  brush the soil strewn path;
 it’s getting very tiresome
 that cat keeps coming back
 perhaps a shot of hose-pipe
 might stop it in its tracks.
