"In The Summertime" From The Cats!




Meowed or sung to the tune of Mungo Jerry's classic "In The Summertime".......

"purr purr-purr uh, purr purr-purr, uh


purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh..."



"In the summertime when the weather is hot



You can stretch right out and be on your favorite cot,


When the weather's fine

You got playing, you got romping on your mind


Have some nip, have a climb


Go out and see what you can find"

"If her Daddy's rich, take her out for some filet,


If her Daddy's poor, just stay in and play,


Speed around the house,


really speed, really speeeed big time my friend,


When the sun goes down, you can make it


make it home before day's end"

"We're no threat, we kitties, we're not dirty, we're not mean


We love everybody, but we do as we please


When the weather's fine

We go fishing or go climbing up some trees


We're always happy


Life's for living, yeah that's our "felineosophy"

"Sing along with us, mew-mew-mew-mew-mew


purr-purr-purr-purr-purr yeah, we're hap-happy.......


mew-mew-mew-mew-mew...."



"Purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh


Purr purr-purr, uh, purr purr-purr, uh...."

"When the winter's here, yeah it's sleepy time


Bring a toy mouse


Wear your finest fur, it'll soon be summertime


And we'll sing again


We'll go jumpin' or maybe we'll settle down


If she's got "noms" or if she's got mice

Bring your kitty friends and we'll all go into town...."


Happy First Day Of Summer All!!

Remember, keep a fresh supply of water available at all times for your kitties, outdoor kitties take your flea meds!

Keep them away from pools, lakes, BBQ's, fire pits, dangerous garden plants and other outdoor hazards.

Make This A Great Summer For You And Your Favorite Felines!!

Thanks to Mungo Jerry's "In The Summertime" for the inspiration for this parody.

  2. Priscilla thanks so much!!!
    I like that photo too. It is amazing how many cat photos are NOT available for use on the Internet due to copyright issues. I found a good site with photos that I CAN use!
    Have to start taking them of my own cat to get around that problem.
    Yes the advice IS great for doggies too!!
    Thanks for reading and commenting!

  7. I think we all can agree this version of the song is infinitely better than the original. OK, maybe dogs wouldn't agree. And dog owners. And people who don't like cats (WHAT?!?). But definitely everyone else.
