I am originally an alley cat who is looked after every dayBy a smashing elderly couple who really went out of their wayTo gain my confidence and help to make me a sociable house catAnd it took a very long time before I would lie on the fireside mat. They named me Tiger Tim and tempted me everyday with fish
And put fresh milk out for me every morning in a china dish

I took to the old couple and they put a flap in the back door
So I could come and go as I pleased, they got to know the score.

I repaid them by ripping curtains and chairs to sharpen my claws
But they still wanted to help me when I had glass stuck in my paws.

I met a female alley cat, she looked so bedraggled and worn
So I decided to take her through the cat flap to stay with me till morn.

The look on the face of my couple as they sawtwo cats not one
I was wary of them and was expecting a scolding as I got ready to run.

But surprisingly they fussed us stroking our heads with care
Saying at the same time that my friend was welcome there.

So now I have a Mrs to look after plus three extra mouths to feed. I think my elderly couple now know that they tamed me well indeed.
