The King and Queen of Siam had many descendants in the Land of Cats. After Kate died at 96, her cats were taken to their local SPCA and some were euthanized.
The King and Queen of Siam
Lived as Siamese cats
In the Land of Cats
- – -
It began with an old woman
Who on losing her husband
In an automobile accident
Deciding to adopt two cats
- – -
King and Queen became her closest
Companions
And she was ecstatic about them
- – -
She never had them neutered
For she wished to have
Many Siamese cats
- – -
True enough kittens arrived
In litters
And before long they overran
Her lovely home and farm
- – -
Her cats displayed hunting
And stalking behavior
Clawing on furniture
Fetched birds
And mice from outside
- – -
She watched them
Observing their prey
And demonstrating
Their chasing abilities
When they encountered
Squirrels and rabbits
- – -
She provided kitty litter boxes
Took photographs of them
Which she referred to lovingly
As her children
And would invite a couple of youngsters
To care for her pets
When she had medical appointments
- – -
Kate never took vacations
She felt it her duty to play with her gang
Groom them
And keep them as happy as possible
Feeding them the best chow
- – -
They meowed with pleasure
Rubbing their furry bodies against her legs
Jumping up to be cuddled
While she sat in her recliner
At night in her neglige
To take a break from it all
- – -
When she died at the ripe old age of 96
She had dozens of cats living on her farm
The SPCA was called to retrieve them
Transporting them to their facilities

They euthanized some of the descendants
Of the King and Queen of Siam
Others went up for adoption
