The Cat and the Kitty

The cat and the kitty were both very pretty,
And once they were asked to a ball.
When they said no, the king cancelled the show,
And then there was no ball at all!

A short while later they were asked by a trader,
If he could trade for some fur.
When they didn’t accept, the man tried his best,
But he could not get them to pur.

The cat and the kitty were both very pretty,
But they thought if they showed their faces,
They would get caught, and kept to distraught,
So they did not go to such places!

So the cat and the kitty kept their lives pretty,
Never to show a soul.
The cat and the kitty lived in the city,
And I do so pity them all.

But, if the cat and the kitty were both so very pretty,
But never to show their faces,
How did the king and the trader know,
That they asked them to go to these places?
