 Shadwell is so lonely so Seligor has put a wonderful new rhyme on for him.
BECAUSE SHADWELL HAS
ARRIVED BACK HOME. HE HAS ASKED IF IT IS
POSSIBLE TO PUT A FEW RHYMES ON HERE TO KEEP HIM
COMPANY. HE DID STRESS NOTHING WITH CAT'S IN BUT
YOU  KNOW ME,   And
so the first rhyme I am adding, is quite old
before 1939, and it is
called
CAT'S MEAT.
The book is called Things
New and Old, a Reading for Action Book for
schools all those years ago. It was my mothers
book, she bought it from a book seller GOULDS in
West Kirby, Liverpool. way back before
WWII.
Cat's Meat
Ho, all you cats in
all the street;Look out, it is the hour of
meat: The
little barrow is crawling
along,And the meat-boy
growling his fleshy song.
Hurry, Ginger !
Hurry, White !Don't delay to court of
fight. Wandering Tabby, vagrant
Black,,Yamble from adventure back
!Slip across the
shining street,Meat ! Meat ! Meat ! Meat
!
 Lift your
tail and dip your feet ;Find your penny - Meat ! Meat
!Where's your
mistress? Learn to purr :Pennies emanate from
her. Be to her,
for she is Fate,Perfectly
affectionate.(You, domestic
Pinkie-Nose,Keep inside and warm your
toes.)Flurry, flurry in the street -
Meat ! Meat ! Meat
! Meat !
Harold Monro.
