Explore "The Kitten's Garden of Verses" by Oliver Herford on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
When People think that Kittens play, / It's really quite the other way. / For when they chase the Ball or Bobbin / They learn to catch a Mouse or Robin.
The Kitten, deaf to Duty's call, / Who will not chase the bounding ball, / A hungry Cathood will enjoy, / The scorn of Mouse and Bird and Boy.
