Here starts our tale with Cathugo the cat.
Who with partner Dittny challenged a rat.
The cats and the rats sat down for a game
And ever since then Yahoo's not been the same.
We had Jean and Dutchie and Amalekite too,
And Max and Red Rover both came to the zoo.
We had Fonee and Rabbit, McMe and Pom Two.
And where Felden1 would we be without you?
Lorrrobb would team with Flaunce or Realbetis
And we'd team up the rest as best they would let us.
Who played for who, back then didn't matter.
All came just to play and enjoy the chatter.
One week a cat, the next week a rat
Nobody cared except that darn cat.
Then one week it happened right out of the blue,
The same week we knew that the rats were through.
A big English bulldog barked ever so loud
"I am a dog and of that I am proud."
"When you need someone to stomp on a cat"
"Send in a dog, not some dirty rat".
"We'll beat those cats if by hook or by crook"
And the rest of the story is the rest of the book.
