Two lovely kittens nonchalantly at play
One bit playfully while the other responded
Aggression invoked to their dismay
At each other's throats they went unaided
She intruded to calm them
They both then pounced on her
Caused scratches mayhem
Scarred her frayed nerves forever

  7. And this is why I would never try to separate sparring cats, or even kittens, with those sharp claws and teeth. Cute quadrille, though.
