Nibbles Nugget Fluffball
Nibbles Nugget Fluffball is a hamster that I know,
I think that when I am sleeping, on adventures he does go.
For when I wake up in the morning, the cage is open wide,
I always think that he’s gone missing but he’s sleeping there inside…
Each night when I’m supposed to sleep, I try my best to stay awake,
I watch the cage, my heart a-thump, for Nibbles' daring break.
But just when I think he's set to go, escaping through the door,
I blink my eyes, and in a flash, I’m snoring on the floor!
So I set up my camera, hoping to catch him on the run,
But every time I check the screen, the footage is all done.
The camera’s been turned off, or moved to some new place?
Nibbles Nugget Fluffball! I see that smile on your face!
The cage is empty every night, with crumbs and fluff inside,
And little paw prints all around, where Nibbles likes to hide.
He is up to something, but what it is I don’t quite know,
So I lay awake and wonder where my sneaky hamster goes…
One night, I finally stayed awake and watched, my eyes as big as moons,
I felt that Nibbles would escape and make his move real soon.
But when I peeked out from my bed, and tried to see him leave,
I found him curled up in his cage, oh, how sneaky he can be!
But then I heard a little sound, a soft and quiet squeak,
I turned my head to catch a glance and Nibbles was staring back at me!
He jumped off the table, where his cage is sat
With Kiwi, my dog, right behind, they were running from the cat!
You won’t believe me when I tell you, that they played all night!
Jumping up the walls and under chairs, it was a crazy sight!
Then I saw my cat Asha, lurking in the dark!
Kiwi would distract her by letting out a bark!
Asha, would sneak around, her eyes all sharp and bright,
But Kiwi and Nibbles were too quick to be caught within her sight.
They’d climb up the curtains, or hide under the rug,
