The cat, I'm bound to say-
In case you forgat all the lays-
Is furry and fretful, somewhat forgetful,
With dignity long as the day.

I like this.
It's short and sweet, and also about cats, which are amazing.
I like the begging because it's probably something a cat would say.
This whole thing reminds me of the Cheshire Cat.
It's all so much of something that a cat would probably say if you gave it the powers to speak. *hits the like button* GO CATS! ~The Written Girl
This reminds me of the kind of creation a great poet like Suess would've made.
I love the fact that it's short. I feel as if the thought is there. The thought is truly and unmistakably THERE.
A talent most poets tend to lack. The thought. They may have the emotions and the words... Just not the thought. And that, my dear friend, may indeed be something we need just a wee bit more of around here. (and when I say thought, i do not in any way mean "thinking about what to write or how to write it."
Good Luck To You.
*the poem whispers softly*
"What?" I ask. "Oh? Really?"
The poem is asking me to tell you it wants to be made into a limerick. A limerick seems like the perfect form for this poem. If you divide the third line into two, and maybe change some words around you might have a limerick. The way it is, this poem doesn't fit the syllable structure of a limerick--three anapestic feet in the first two and last lines and two anapestic feet in the two middle rhyming lines--but even if you don't change anything but the line break, I think dividing the third line will still make moresense for the poem and rhyme scheme.
Also, your second line is sort of confusing. First, did you mean to write "forgat"? Second, I'm not sure what it means. If you rewrote the second line (making it's meaning clearer or replacing it), that would be helpful to the poem as a whole.
Interesting short poem!

Yes, I meant to write "forgat" and it's a misspelling of "forgot". I dashed this off in a minute and wanted to share it.

Hallo, Stori, haven't seen you around!
This poem was quite...strange. I have never seen anything like it. Never. I love it though. It was classified greatly, your point clear, and overall awesome. Literally. Try not to make many rhyming poems, many think people of age wouldn't write rhyming. Just a little note. That was only my opinion, so of course don't take it. If you do, though, prepare for ultimate doom. Mwahahahahaha!
