: : " Cats are foul, they hiss and yowl,
: : A dog is your chum, it's CATS that are dumb,
: : Cats go potty ALL the time,
: : They're always naughty, but dogs are sublime!"

: : So Miss Sassy and your thimble-sized little cohort better just be careful with the dog-bashing. I've been on sabbatical for a while and just itchin' to invent a high-powered, far-reaching carpet duster that cares naught if it carries Soothsayers, Sassy, Brassy or whatever! And just the other day a colleague of mine tossed some plans my way for a new Gnome-gnasher called the "Gastro-Gnome - it makes pip-squeaks palliatively palatable". Being the rather gentile creature that I am though, I certainly would rather not be driven to nastiness, so...CAN IT YOU TWO!

: : Your friend...for now,
: : GG

: Oh, Gadget Girl, O friend of mine,
: Don't try walkin' this thin line,
: "Cats are pests? Dogs are best?"
: Let's see you pass my widdle test...
: Get out your fingers & with a frown,
: Look around you, up and down,
: Check the couches, check the floor,
: Count the cats...one, two, three, four...
: And in the kitchen, sakes alive,
: Another rests...that makes FIVE.
: One for the thumb, and one for each finger,
: That's FIVE, (just so no doubts will linger!)
: Now, Gadget Girl, look around once again,
: This time count CANINES, says me, with a grin...
: How many canines can you find in your house?
: Far be it from me to continue to grouse,
: But I've been there, myself, and SEEN what it was,
: So don't try adding additional paws!
: Look close, and look hard, but try as you might,
: You'll find there's only one doggy in sight.
: That's ONE dog, GG, though a big one she is,
: But one dog to five cats, good golly, gee whiz!
: It doesn't take a scientist who knows about rockets,
: Or a fancy magician pulling numbers from pockets,
: To settle this question of which one is best...
: Just do the math...it's an open-book test.
: Number of kitties, so warm and so furry,
: Is FIVE, count'em FIVE! No need to hurry
: To count all the dogs...there aren't very many.
: In fact, with one LESS, there wouldn't be ANY!
: So, don't give us this bunk about dogs being BEST,
: When you, your own self, can't pass this quick test.
: FIVE beautiful cats...I know that you love 'em,
: Else why would you want so dang many of 'em?
: As for your big dog, it must be a case
: Of giving your cats something fuzzy to chase!

: MMMM


Couldn't have said it better, in fact not nearly so WELL!!!
Great effort! Stupendous. And right spot on, too. C'mere, lemme give you a gnome high five.....no, you have to stoop. MORE than that. WAY down low! There ya go *SMACK*
Yeah. Take that Gadjet Girl! Sassy's got YOUR number all righty.
