- 'Twas the night before Christmas
- and all through the house
- Not a creature was stirring,
- not even a mouse.
- 'Cuz the cat had pounced on him
- and tore him apart --
- Ate his mousey intestines
- and chewed up his heart.
- Kitty thought he heard sleighbells,
- which made him take pause --
- He stopped daintilly licking
- the blood from his claws.
- "Must be Santa," thought Kitty
- (that quite clever cat)
- " 'Cuz no one else climbs down
- the chimney like that."
- Indeed it was ol' Santa
- so jolly and fat
- With a huge load of presents
- and all for the cat!
- "Wow, the best Christmas ever!"
- Kitty thought with a purr,
- Then he coughed up a hairball
- and shed some more fur.
- On the twelfth day of Christmas my human gave to me...
- Twelve bags of catnip
- Eleven tasty cat treats
- Ten ornaments hanging
- Nine wads of tissue
- Eight peacock feathers
- Seven stolen Q-tips
- Six feathered balls
- Five Milk Jug Rings!!!
- Four munchy house plants
- Three running faucets
- Two fuzzy mousies
- and a Hamste-e-er in a plastic ball!
- Deck the hawls with tails of mousies!
- Tra lala la la lala lala
- Tis the seesun to eat Pouncies
- Tra lala la la lala lala...

Sing to tune of "Jingle Bells"
- Dashing to the vet's in the brand new red sports car,
- We have no litterbox; I hope it isn't far......
- I'll scream and claw and cry, to make them all feel bad,
- While plotting in my tiny brain to make the vet go mad!
- Chorus:
- To the vet's, to the vet's, to the vet's we go,
- If I had a choice in this, I'd rather just say "no-o"!
- To the vet's, to the vet's, to the vet's we go,
- Why must we always do this? You know I hate it so!
- They check my fur for fleas; they check my ears for mites;
- They give me lots of shots; I give them lots of bites;
- They want to see my eyes; they want to see my teeth;
- They check out every inch of me, above and underneath.
- Chorus:
- To the vet's, to the vet's, to the vet's we go,
- If I had a choice in this, I'd rather just say "no-o"!
- To the vet's, to the vet's, to the vet's we go,
- Why must we always do this? You know I hate it so!
