My Very Special Cat

   Mittens is a very special cat.
He was born a polydactyl with extra toes on the front paws.
His paws are white and he is gray.  His paws have thumbs.
That is how he got his name.

   My cat will find trouble wherever he is at.
He knocks things off of shelves and pushes things off the table.
Trouble is his middle name.
But, I would not ever trade my special cat for anything, even all the tea in China!

    I love my special boy just the way he is!
He keeps me entertained day and night.
Every package that comes to the door has to pass his muster.
Or he tells me, ‘You are in trouble, buster!’
