I was looking for a poem about mice, but found this instead:
A Dog will often steal a bone,
But conscience lets him not alone,
And by his tail his guilt is known.
But cats consider theft a game,
And howsoever you may blame,
Refuse the slightest sign of shame.
When food mysteriously goes,
The chances are that Pussy knows
More than she leads you to suppose.
And hence there is no need for you
If Puss declines a meal or two
To feel her pulse and make ado.
