I know this sounds kind of strange but I sing little rhymes to my cats with their names in it. I was wondering if anyone else does this? Like for Corkscrew I usually sing..

Corky boy Corky boy
You're my little porky boy

LOL I'm sure you all think I'm nuts now.

Sometimes we change the words a little to get their names in them. Yeah, we sing to the cats a lot!


"Midnight at the oasis...send your kitty to bed."

"Phoenix, Goddess of Purrs that you are..."

"Sunshine of your love" (I tell him "Walking on Sunshine" is a mean song LOL)

Max gets called Maxwell Edison sometimes (from "Maxwell's Silver Hammer")

"Hey Jude" becomes "Hey Jules".

"Soul Man" becomes "Coal Man".

There is a song on the Moulin Rouge Soundtrack "Because we Can Can Can" that becomes "Because she's Pan Pan Pan".

Also the first line of the Beatles' Polythene Pam ("Have you seen Polythene Pam?") becomes "Have you seen Polly clean Pan?"

"Desperado" becomes "Silverado".

Van Morrison's "Domino" becomes "Oh-oh-Romeo".

Still working on songs for Khepera and Osiris. Khepera's new nickname is a play on a phrase from Anne Rice's "Those Who Must Be Kept"; he is "He Who Must Be Khepera".

My other favorite one for Corkscrew is

Corky Porky pudding and Pie
Kissed the Girls and Made them Cry
When the boys came out to play
Corky Porky ran away.

Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
We make up songs and sing them to our cats all the time!

Here's the latest one. It's to the tune that Monty Python uses when they sing I'm a Lumberjack and I'm OK.....


You're our kitty-cats and you're OK
You don't work at all and you play all day!
Lazlo you're a serious cat, but you love being brushed on the bathroom mat!
Tuxedo you're a bonker-nuts, but you love your dad & give him lots of head-butts!
Spooky you're our scaredy-cat, but you trust us lots and you love our laps.

Shelly you love to play Hide and Seek, but you're our King and we bow at your feet.

LOL Corkscrew does the same thing, but it just makes me want to sing more because I love the look on his face.

Yes, I have a different song for each of them. Plus I use funny voices when I sing the songs, not my normal singing voice.

LOL! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Sometimes I'll make things up to whatever is on the radio, but this is my favorite:

You toe pretty
You my kitty
And I lub you
Cause you my Ivo

Also...

You so stinky
Yes you are
You so stinky
But I love you

Ivo usually doesn't like it too much, either.

Bad Bad Peedoodle Brown
The baddest cat in the whole damn town
Badder than Old King Kong
And Meaner than a Junkyard dog

That is every time Peedoodle gets hyper.


Funnily enough, if I sing to him, he snuggles up to me

These are great! This is what I used to sing to Harry when he was a little guy: How much is that Harry in the window? The one with the big blue eyes! Harry, Harry, how much is Harry? How much is my guy ... silly, eh?

LMAO! I had to jump in here....DH made up "THE ASHLEY SONG" to the tune of Casper the Friendly Ghost (the old cartoon).

"Ashley the kitty cat...her not skinny her is fat..she is Ashley the kitty cat!! She always says hello..and she's really glad to meet you. Whereever she may go...she's kind to every living creature (except rabbits). Kitty cats don't understand why humans love her the most. The kids all know they love her so..she's Ashley the STINKY cat!".

Kind of have to sing it in a baby-tone-ish way and some of it is a little ad-libbed...lol But isn't that hilarious??? He does things like this all the time. Now tell me he doesn't adore this cat!!

I sing two songs all the time:

sung to "Bad Boys"

Bad Kitties, Bad Kitties, whatcha gonna do?
Watcha gonna do when the Toeser comes for you?

Toes loves that song and even does a special kind of dance whenever I sing it or COPS comes on.

sung to the "Mickey Mouse Club Song"

Hey there! Hi there! Ho there!
You're as welcome as can be.
T-O-E...S-E-R...H-O-S-E-R
Toeser Hoser (Tailer Sailor)
Toeser Hoser (Tailer Sailor)
Forever shall we hold your banner high!
High! High! High!
T-O-E...S-E-R...H-O-S-E-R

Tailer thinks it's a little weird, but Toes likes it too.

Usually it it's to the tune of Allouette, that little French song.

Fuzzy panties, she's my fuzzy panties
Fuzzy panties, she's my baby cat
She my baby fuzzy-pants
She's my fancy baby fuzz
Fuzzy pants Baby fuzz
Fuzzy pants Baby fuzz
etc, etc, etc...

It's extremely strange I know but I can't help it! lol...

I also wrote a song for her a while back...
The lyrics are:

"oh how I love to destroy things
that is my favorite chore
scratch up and shred and annoy things
one thing or two things or more
etc, etc, etc..."

Wow I'm amazed at how many people make up songs for their kitties! I thought I was the only one, I didn't expect anyone to actually reply to this thread. I like everyone's songs, they are all sweet and goofy and show lots of love for our furry friends.

I used to sing to Rockford: (when we were fostering him for a little while):
"Rockford is a good kitty...
Yes he is...Yes he is"
"Rockford is a good kitty...
Yes he is...Yes he is"

And Berkley has a song too:
"Broccoli and cheese and carrots and peas, and potatoes..."

I sing Sterling's name to him over and over! Not much rhymes with Sterling

Just when you think that you the only one who does something stange, someone posts about it. I always make up songs about Max. I usually make them off the top of my head and can't remember them. However, the one I usually sing is:

Maximillian your one in a million
I love your wiskers and I love your toes

It goes on from there, but I won't bore you.
