Let's start a limerick and let the next person finish it. There are five lines with aa bb a rhyme. I'll start and hope someone finishes it. Then that person should start another limerick for someone else to finish.

There once was a kitty named Joe
Who thought that his human was slow;
He cried for his chow
He yelled, "I eat now!
(Your turn)

"and took a quick bite from Joe's toe!"
- hows that Jeanie?!


Hmmm to start another one....

Now Jeanie had started a thread,
A limerick straight from her head,
she typed and typed,
stayed up all night.......

And never did go to her bed!


Alright whom do I pick on?

There once was a kitty named Trent
Who thought that his tail might be bent
He struggled to see
Where his tail ought to be..


Ok. Finish it, please.

...And tumbled right down on the vent!

(I am so bad at these!
But Trent is a clumsy little guy!)

There once was a cat from Nantucket,
Who liked to sit on a bucket.
He rubbed and he purred
'Til it was thoroughly furred...

Heidi, You're so bad!! You know there's only one rhyme that comes to my mind. I'll have to work on this and let someone else do some thinking too! (Yes, I know that makes me bad too!)

I didn't even think about that when I wrote it! No wonder the limmericks that teen's use are always from Nantucket! OK, I'll let ya off the hook, and finish it...

'Til it was thoroughly furred
...And his family decided to chuck it!

Lemme try this one more time...(I swear I'll think it through a little better!)

Miss Kitty came from the Shire.
She liked to warm by the fire.
She'd lay there all night,
Then by the early dawn's light...

She'd wake up and play with a wire. (I hope I'm doing this right)

There once was a kitty named Socks
He painted and liked to wear smocks
He liked working with clay
during the week and on Sunday...

And to add to his talent, He talks!


A woman we know had a steed
Who must have been off of her feed;
She bucked off our friend,
Who went tail o'er front end,

and now my old back it won't bend!


A benevolent soul name of Anne
Came on cyberspace with quite a plan
To fashion a place for feline owners with taste

Okay, another..

"Preposterous!" sniffed the old cat.
"You can't believe I'll eat that!"
He glared at the food, then feeling particularly rude....

dumped the food in his owner's small hat.



There was an old Tom on a wall
Who was terribly afraid he would fall
So he cattered and wauled
His lungs overhauled........

When he let loose with a final last squall.



Persnickety, graceful, and dear
describe kitties afar and near
We love them to death
despite fishy breath....

'Cause their purrer is in a high gear!

A gal from our big Lone Star State
Wanted a job, couldn't wait!
Now she labors all day
To earn a big pay...

So the IRS can get their rebate

There lives a cute doggie named Sam
Who thinks he should live like a man
But he runs like a bunny
Which is so very funny

But he falls--which was not in his plan!

A kitty who thought he'd be cool
Put a suit on and dove in the pool;
But after the splash
He did not feel so brash,

He'd forgotten the Dry Cat's Golden Rule!
(this one is true...)
There once was a kitten named Grace,
Who had the prettiest golden face,
She loved to hunt mice,
And play with fuzzy dice

and when food time came she would pace



There was a Goliath of a kitty
Who climbed on a box fan what a pity
Because of his paws, the weight of it all
