forest hut

Neighbours they were, the cat & the owl
At night, for rats, they would prowl

One night, it rained heavily there
Soon, there were no rats anywhere 

When the duo came out to satisfy their hunger 
They realized, the place held rats no longer 

"Where are the rats?" the feline wondered 
"Maybe they ran away" replied the bird

"I'm so hungry" the cat sadly said 
But, with an empty stomach, they went to bed 

Now, I know that this cat wasn't wise
But the owl? He was otherwise 

Next morning, there was no cat
You may be wondering why is that 

All I can say, is the owl was fatter 
And that, I hope, should be the end of the matter
