House Pets

A Kitten

A kitten is fast asleep under the chair.
And Donald can't find her.
He's looked everywhere.
Under the table,
Under the bed,
He looked in the corner, and then Donald said.
"Come Kitty, come Kitty, this milk is for you."
And out came kitty calling, "Mew, mew, mew."


Black Cat

The black cat yawns, opens her jaws
Stretches her legs and shows her claws.
Then she gets up and stands on four
Long stiff legs and yawns some more.
Lifting herself on her delicate toes
She arches her back as high as it goes.
She lets herself down with particular care
And pads away with her tail in the air.


Cat

My cat can stalk
My cat can walk
But how I wish
My cat could
    TALK!

Counting Kittens

One kitten with a furry tail
Two kittens on the floor
Three kittens in the apple tree
Four kittens at the door
Five kittens roll a yellow ball
Six kittens gently purr
Seven kittens watch a mouse
Eight kittens wash their fur
Nine kittens lap their morning milk
Ten kittens chase a hen
Help me count the kittens
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10


Dogs in the Dirt

Ten little dogs went out one day
To dig in the dirt and play, play, play
Five were spotted, and five were not
And at dinner time they ate a lot.

Five Black Kittens

Five black kittens stayed up late
Sitting on top of the garden gate.
The stars came out and the moon did too.
The five little kittens began to mew.
Along came the mother with a lovely purr
And she took the kittens back home with her.


Five Little Kittens

Five little kittens all black and white
Sleeping very soundly all through the night
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow
Five little kittens all asleep in a ball
Wake up! Wake up! And stretch up tall.
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.


Five Little Kittens

Five little kittens sleeping in a chair
One rolled off leaving four there
Four little kittens, one climbed a tree
To look for a bird's nest
Then there were three.
Three little kittens wondered what to do
One saw a mouse and then there were two.
Two little kittens playing near a wall.
One little kitten chased a red ball
One little kitten with fur soft as silk
Left all alone to drink a dish of milk.


Five Little Pussy Cats

Five little pussy cats see them play
This one is brown, this one is gray
This one has a white nose, this one has sharp claws
This one has long whiskers and tiny, soft paws.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 pussy cats
Hurry away to scare the mice and rats


Frisky's Doghouse

This is Frisky's doghouse;
This is Frisky's bed;
Here is Frisky's pan of milk;
So that he can be fed.
Frisky has a collar
With his name upon it, too
Take a stick and throw it,
He'll bring it back to you.

I Had a Little Doggy

I had a little doggy that used to sit and beg,
But doggy tumbled down the stairs and broke his little leg.
Oh, doggy, I will nurse you and try to make you well,
And you shall have a collar with a little silver bell.
Oh, doggy, don't you think that you should very faithful be,
For having such a loving friend to comfort you as me?
And when your leg is better, and you can run and play,
We'll have a scamper in the fields and see them making hay.


I Saw Two Cats

I saw two cats, two, two, two.
And each cat said, "Mew, mew, mew."
Another cat made three, three, three.
I wish they were for me, me, me.
Another cat made four, four, four.
But still I wanted more, more, more.
I took them home, but sakes alive!
I found that I had five, five, five.
My mama said, "That's fine, fine, fine."
So all five cats are mine, mine, mine.


I've Got a Dog

I've got a dog as thin as a rail
He's got fleas all over his tail
Every time his tail goes flop
The fleas on the bottom all hop to the top!


Kitty
(tune of BINGO)

I have a cat, she's very shy.
But she comes when I call her.
K-I-T-T-Y
K-I-T-T-Y
K-I-T-T-Y
And Kitty is her name-o.


Little Black and White Dog
(tune of She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain)

Oh, I have a little black and white dog. Ruff! Ruff!
Oh, I have a little black and white dog. Ruff! Ruff!
Oh, I have a little dog, I have a little dog,
Oh, I have a little black and white dog. Ruff! Ruff!
Oh, he always comes to meet me when I call. Here, boy!...
Oh, he jumps up high to give me a big lick. Slurp, slurp!...
Oh, I feed him crunchy dog food every day. Crunch, crunch!


Mei Ling

She's a cranky old kitty
But I love her so
She spits and she hisses
When she steps in the snow
She can't stand children
'Cause they poke and they tease
"Don't bother me, baby,
I'm Siamese!"


Mrs. Kitty's Dinner

Mrs. Kitty, sleek and fat, with her kittens four.
Went to sleep upon the mat by the kitchen door.
Mrs. Kitty heard a noise. Up she jumped in glee.
"Kittens, maybe that's a mouse? Let's go and see!"
Creeping, creeping, creeping on, silently they stole.
But the little mouse had gone back into his hole.


My Dog Jay

Ruggle dee
Buggle dee
My dog Jay
guards my house
both night and day
robbers, prowlers
stay away
You'll get scared
By my dog Jay.


My Puppy

I like to pet my puppy.
He has such nice soft fur.
And if I don't pull his tail
He won't say, "Grrr!"


My Puppy

It's funny my puppy knows just how I feel
When I'm happy he's yappy and squirms and squeals
When I'm grumpy he knows to stay at my heel
It's funny my puppy knows such a great deal.


Pussy-Cat

Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, where've you been?
I've been to London to visit the Queen.
Pussy-cat, pussy-cat, what did you do there?
I frightened a little mouse under a chair.


Special Diet

There's something wrong with Sasha
He doesn't want to purr
His motor isn't running
And all because of her

Her name is little Myshka
A teeny tiny mouse
She's peeking out at Sasha
Who can't get in her house

He's posted by her doorway
A hole where he won't fit
He doesn't want his dinner
And all he does is sit

The same old dried up cat food
Is all that's in the house
It isn't appetizing
When Sasha wants some "mouse"


Three Cats

One little cat and two little cats went out for a romp one day.
One little cat and two little cats make how many cats at play?
Three little cats had lots of fun till growing tired away ran one.
I really think he was most unkind to the two little cats that were left behind.


Three Little Kittens

Three little kittens, lost their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh mother dear, we sadly fear, our mittens we have lost!"
"What! Lost your mittens? You naughty kittens!
Then you shall have no pie."
"Meow, meow, meow!"
The three little kittens found their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh, mother dear, see here, see here!  Our mittens we have found."
"What!  Found your mittens?  You good little kittens.
Then you shall have some pie."
"Purr, purr, purr."


Tiger Walk:

Walk, walk, softly - slow -
This is the way the tigers go.
Walk, walk, get out of the way!
Tigers are coming to school today.
Creep, creep - softly  - slow  -
This is the way the tigers go.
Creep, creep, come and play.
Tigers are here at school today.


Two Little Kittens

Two little kittens found a ball of yarn
As they were playing near a barn.
One little kitten jumped in the hay,
The other little kitten ran away.


Wiggling Puppies

One little puppy, one
Wiggled his tail and had wiggling fun.
Two little puppies, two
Wiggled their bodies as puppies do.
Three little puppies three
Wiggled their noses happily.
Four little puppies, four
Wiggled their shoulders and wiggled some more.
Five little puppies fat and round,
Wiggled their ears when they heard a sound.
