Nursery Rhyme Redo: It's Raining, It's Pouring


It's raining, it's pouring
And the cat is snoring
Upon the pillow beside my head
And there he will be until morning



This seems quite appropriate considering the rainy day here.

  1. Is it raining cats, or dogs...or both? --grin!

    Cute photo. My cat curls up under my chin and purrs himself to sleep (and me to wake) for hour or two every day...at nap.

    PEACE!

  2. That is so cute! I don't know about sleeping with cats though. They suck out your breath when you are asleep.

    Yes, Linda. I'm kidding.

  8. Steve E - Thanks. It only rains cats at our house. We have three. Thanks for stopping by.

    Linda- Yeah, I know you're kidding. Cats have been part of the sleeping experience for almost 25 years, and we're still breathing.

    Hilary- Most certainly - they are a big part of our lives.

    Brian- One of ours loves her "tree house".

    The Noiseless Cuckooclock- Yep, it's almost that time. Thanks for visiting.

  10. My cat sleeps on my head, but I don't think it's because she's affectionate, I think it's because she's trying to suffocate me :-)

  11. As usual a delightful rendition of a Nursery Rhyme. I love your "redos."

    BTW You've received an award:~) Stop by my site and pick it up when you can.

    This blogging award is a bit different than the usual "mememe" awards. I found it very challenging. It is also well-deserved.

  12. Meleah- Thank you! Rosie, the model, sends his thanks, too.

    Nicky- Rosie tries to sleep on my head, but I relegate him to the edge. He thinks I've got the best pillow.

    Sara- Thank you so much. I am glad you are enjoying the series. Sometimes it can be quite the challenge. Also, thank you for the award. Your praise means a lot to me.
