Years I polished floors
Started with linoleum
It was a dream job

My career took off
I advanced into hardwoods
Could start a franchise

Then it all ended
Because they got a Roomba
Job went belly up

Elizabeth H., says she has tons of photos of Nikki lounging in his favorite position!

Does he ever get into a different position? Do they just drag him around the floor?
Does he ever move?
Do they drag him ’round the floor?
I mean, does he bend?
*golf clap* *golf clap* *golf
clap* *golf clap* *golf clap* *golf clap*
*golf clap* *golf clap clap*
(I know….clapping in haiku just loses something….)
WHOA!
Theresa, I haven’t stopped laughing since I read your reply.
I mean does he bend anywhere?
Well, his ears do–or at least the left one does when he’s on the couch.
What a silly little fellow! And I love the swirly markings–so handsome.
Does he bend. Oh, that’s funny. I hope he does. I like the swirly markings too!
Boneless cat fillet
Worship my haunches you fool
You know you want to
HAW
I strayche all the time
Much better than Stretch Armstrong
Extend-o-cat rules!
Extend-o-cat tops
The Hypnotoad any day.
I have lost my soul.

The best of the week
I’m not creative, so no
Haiku here. Kitty!
you came pretty close to one, elishab!
I love the socks so,
The belleh also to rub.
Kitten cuddles I.
Not sure I “get” haiku. But, eh, there’s my stab at it.
5-7-5 (syllables per line, that is). Almost got it (unless I can’t count this morning, which is always a possibility…….)
Kitty Splayage RULZ
Belly Up or Belly Down
makes the cute peeps DROOLZ
Contemplate the Spring
Geometrically Bisect
View Life upside down.
Awesome! Sort of like an MC Escher haiku…
Do i dare make another one?
Do, do!
Yes!
Elizabeth H., I bet you were snorgling Nikki’s belly after that last picture
Where do you live so I can come and snorgle Nikki’s belly as well
lazy kitty cat
lies around the house all day
wish I had his life
Tinee tabbee cat
With white boots and mittens
Has no skeleton
If kitteh was a fishbone tabbee instead of a swirly tabbee, he’d be the twin of my dear departed Steve.
He IZ the twin of MY dear departed Salinger (RIP). If he haz green eyez, he might as well BE Salinger.
*nostalgic sigh*
One day you WILL trip!
And this house and everything
in it will be MINE!
very nicely done
Ssssh! Don’t tell my cats–I’ve got one who keeps tripping me accidentally on purpose.
Cats consider it part of their job to stand right in front of your feet when you’re trying to cross a room. Particularly if you are carrying a big armload of laundry.
It’s an international conspiracy. CaTerrorists are our biggest security threat.
I attack the dust
Cobwebs are suddenly gone
Just call me Swiffer
They call him Swiffer, Swiffer, faster than lightning…
(You’re welcome for the earworm.)
You did that on porpoise, didn’t you?
*groan*
Yoga masters, quail!
Behold, outwards kitteh straitch
Trumps your downward dawg.
Kitteh on the floor
Tiles and hardwood squeaky clean.
Can you say “sock mop”?
Sock mop!
Doodley-oo-DOO-dee-doo-doo
Sock mop!
Doodley-oo-DOO-dee-doo-doo
Sock mop!
Doodley-oo-DOO-dee-doo-doo
S-O-C-K-M-O-P-P Sock Mop!
*waves pompoms enthusiastically*
Insert Ames Brothers version here … no, really, someone insert it! Thx!
It is not a haiku but…
Long kitty
Flat kitty
Little rug of fur
Happy kitty
Sleepy kitty
Pur Pur Pur
*wild applause* I likes it!
Sheldon would not approve. He does not like change.
Unless it’s a few days past his scheduled haircut, in which case he embraces change.
ok is that in the melody of pat a cake?? cuz that’s how i heard it!! excellent!!
*shakes pompoms enthusiastically and with Team CO Spirit*
All kitty bellies
Should be gainfully employed
Put them to work now!
I’ve got some dusty corners
Could use some sweeping
Love your jobs program
Rebuilding our nation, kitteh-style.
I’m stretching all out
To show off all my beauty.
Well? Is it working?
Yes!
“Does this floor make my belleh look fat???”
Is it weird that I instinctively want to reach into the second photo and spin the kitty around the hardwood floor?
Yeah ,Man ! that sounds like alot of fun – spin the kitty -on the hardwood floor !
Around and round she goes , where she’ll stop nobody knooooooooows !
Can I go after you?
Why, no. No, not weird at all. Because then that would make me weird. And goodness knows I’M not weird.
We resemble the suggestion that anybody here is weird.
*giggle*
That third pic is just plain and simple belleh snorgle temptation.
The essence of Zen
Is contained within one
Horizontal cat
(hushed, “Oooooohhh!”)
Well, it was either that or write an ode to kitteh ‘tocks.
Well what’s stopping you?!?
Does a cat have Buddha-nature?
Mew!
Pyrit, one awesome multi-haiku posting.
Have I told you all, enough times, that I Loff you Peeps. I am totally in aww of all these Haikus!
I think it’s time for a GROUP HUG!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s the trouble with some cats …. no backbone. A spineless little sock mop…
I love his smug expression in the second picture. “Don’t you wish you were this flexible?”
Demurest of the tabby kind,
The pensive Nikki reclined,
Gazing at the world outside.
Upside-down kitteh
May be all cute & tabbeh
But he steals my soul.
extended cat calls

i swallowed your wand

And no one gets hurt.
Tabby swirls at rest
Full extension lover boy

LOL. Well that was just luck!
I am SO LINKING to this as a Haiku Challenge Friday, is that ok? LOVE.
Cool tile
Under my belly
Perfect bliss.
(I’m more of a proponent of the 3-5-3 school when doing haiku in English.)

Elizabeth Harrington
