The Hat In the Cat!
Upon a time
Not so long ago
There was a Wozzle
Who loved to wuzzle
The wuzzling Wozzler’s name was WiffleHe enjoyed wuzzling,
No matter what time!
Now what exactly a wuzzle was
Is still not very clear at all…But whatever it was,
It was great and grand!
It always made the Wozzle called Wiffle…
So very, very happy!However… this is a story
About the day
That the wuzzling Wozzler Wiffle
Was having a bad day.The Wozzle had put down his favourite hat
To wuzzle, like he always does best…
By a tree that he really liked,
And that Little Cat just happens to sleep by!The Wozzles hat,
Was just that
A very wonderful fine hat,
However it was small and red
And from a distance,
Looked like a treat!When Wiffle looked,
To check on his fine hat…
Between the wuzzling
That he does best,
He found to shock,
His hat not there!
And in its place
A sleeping Little Cat instead!Wiffle said
And quite upset“Oh no!
Oh no!
Where is my hat!
That Cat
That Cat
Ate my hat!
Its the only answer
Yes it must be that!
My hat was there
But now its disappeared
That cat, That cat
ATE MY HAT!!”Wiffle approached the sleeping cat
And slowly tapped him on the back,
To try wake the Little Cat,
To ask the sleeper for a new hat!Or maybe if he was very lucky
Little Cat had yet to swallow
And perhaps he could get back his hat
Although it would be covered in slobber.But no matter how many times Wiffle tapped
He could not wake sleeping Little Cat
And he did try, yes he did
He tapped Little Cat a hundred times ten!So Wiffle then rushed to get a friend
Someone who might have an idea
Of how to wake the sleeping Little Cat
To ask so nicely for a new fine hat!Wiffle went and got his friend Wibble
And then he returned so very quickly,
He pointed at the sleeping Little Cat
And told his friend Wibble exactly what happened“That Cat!
That Cat!
It ate my hat!!
There is a hat
In that cat!”Wibble looked
And tapped his foot
With a “hmmm”
A “Hummm”
He thought and thoughtApproaching Little Cat
With bells of sorts
He rang them near Little Cats ears so loud,
Wiffle and Wibble looked and waited
Hoping for Little Cat to wake right upBut all that happened
Was Little Cat stretched and rolled over
Without opening eyes
Or waking up at all!Wibble and Wiffle
Then tried again
With all sorts of noise makers
From drums to noisy geese!But no matter what they tried
They had no luck
This sleeping Little Cat
Would just not wake up!So Wibble and Wiffle rushed off to get a friend
Someone who they thought might have an idea
Of how to wake the sleeping Little Cat
To ask so nicely for a new fine hat!Wiffle and Wibble went and got there friend Wizzle
And then they returned so very, very quickly,
They pointed at the sleeping Little Cat,
And told their friend Wizzle exactly what happened“That cat
That cat
It ate Wiffles hat!There is a hat
In that cat!A hat in that cat!
Do you see that!A cat, a cat
Where there use to be a hat!”Wizzle looked
And tapped his foot
With a “hmmm”
A “Hummm”
He thought and thoughtHe was much wiser
Than Wiffle and Wibble
For he liked to read
And that teaches you bunchesAnd in one of those stories
That he had had read once
He learned about a cat
Who was just like Little CatA cat who had slept so very long
And who would not wake up
Not for anyone!That is unless
You remembered the trick
A secret trick
That always works!So Wizzle, who was a Wozzle
Got a very large bowl
And he filled it up
With all the most tastiest things he knew!And as soon as the first
Yummy thing touched the bowl
Little Cats ears twitched
AND HE WOKE UP!He rushed to the bowl
Quicker than lightening!
Wiffle Looked shocked
And amazed at the same time!“That cat
That Cat!
Is awake at last,
Please Little Cat
Get me a new hatYou ate,
You Ate
My fine hat!”But then Wibble and Wizzle
Interrupted With a very large GASP“Wiffle!”
They said
And quite surprised“Wiffle
Look there!
Where Little Cat slept!There is a hat
That should be in a cat!There is no hat in that cat
There was a hat under that cat!Your hat, Your hat!
Is not in that cat!There is no hat in that cat!”
Wiffle Jumped around in joy
He quickly went and picked up his fine hat
Which was rather warm
After being slept on like that!He then began to wuzzle
As Wozzles do best
With his two friends
Wibble and WizzleThey were all so happy
That everything worked out so well,
Especially for Little Cat
Who now had a full belly!

Excellent story. You had me guessing during the whole story whether the cat had eaten the hat or the hat was hidden. I’m glad Wiffle had a smart friend Wizzle and got his hat back. Yay!
LOL! I wondered if the cat really ate it or not, too.
heh I just assumed the cat ate the hat! Imagine my surprise to find out the had was merely a napping place! Great story, Matty!
Jacob is very honoured to inspire one of your stories, Matty! Thank you for writing it and dedicating it to him:)
I am glad he liked it lyn!!!!
