Monday Haiku: The Pathway to Purrfection
Last updated on November 9th, 2017 at 01:45 am
Hello furriends! Happy Monday from me, Mr. Jack. If you know anything about me, you know that my main tasks here at the Chirpy household is to keep the peace and spread the communal scent through grooming everyone in my path, heck, even human feet. But that is not the only reason I groom. I also like to groom my coat to keep it in tip-top shape for my selfies. I like my fur and whiskers all in place. But there comes a time when striving for perfection can become stifling, exhausting and rather energy-draining. In today’s haiku, I leave you with my eye-opening realization as I lay on a bed of Autumn leaves…
To start your Monday on the right paw, have a perfect day, but be sure to add a dash of “a little less perfect” and a pinch of “disarray”. Your state of mind will thank you for it.
With Love from
Mr. Jack (CCSF)

You do look purrfect, Mr. Jack.
You are a handsome boy.
Brulee always has some disarray with her fur!
Mr Jack, you have my heart. Forever and ever!
Awe! That’s so sweet, thank you!
Oh, Mr. Jack, a fine bit of Haiku that was! Mom & I heart you! That is a nice pile of leaves you got there. I like to nibble on one every once in awhile when the doggie tracks one in the house or if one blows in the garage. Do you? I love how they crinkle! Chin rubs!
You are one perfect tabby Mr. Jack.
Cats can groom for hours, with a dedication for perfection. One of my cats lays on her side and chases her own tail for hours every day. The coat won’t groom itself, and the tail won’t chase itself. Someone’s got to do it. Professional groomers and tail-chasers should never be out of work.
