Three Little Kittens



Here's an old nursery rhyme that can be shared with funny, high-pitched cat "me-ow" sounds:




Three little kittens
They lost their mittens,
and they began to cry
Oh Mother dear,
We sadly fear,
Our mittens we have lost.
What! Lost your mittens,
You naughty kittns!
Then you shall have no pie.
Me-ow, me-ow, me-ow.
No, you shall have no pie.

The three little kittens
They found their mittens,
And they began to cry.
Oh, Mother dear,
See here, see here,
Our mittens we have found.
Put on your mittens,
You silly kittens,
And you shall have some pie.
Purr-r, purr-r, purr-r
Oh, let us have some pie.

The three little kittens
Put on their mittens,
And soon ate up the pie,
Oh, Mother dear,
We greatly fear,
Our mittens we have soiled.
What! Soiled your mittens,
You naughty kittens!
Then they began to sigh,
Me-ow, me-ow, me-ow,
Then they began to sigh.

The three little kittens
They washed their mittens,
And hung them out to dry,
Oh, Mother dear,
Do you not hear,
Our mittens we have washed.
What! Washed your mittens,
Then you’re good kittens,
But a I smell a rat close by.
Me-ow, me-ow, me-ow,
We smell a rat close by.
