My Cat Goes Hunting My cat goes hunting every day, In the forest beyond, When she returns, She jumps through the window, And I always look, Because sometimes she brings A gift in her tiny mouth, A little shrew with a pointed nose, Lay lifeless in the hall, A blackbird staring with dead eyes, Near the garden door, A wriggly worm, Alive and wriggling, Hanging from her mouth, I gave a scream, I started to shout, And shoved the cat back out, It seems so cruel, But its nature's way, For a cat to go hunting everyday.
