Crafting with cat hair

Liner Notes
Well, is it a thing? Does anybody know?
Lyrics
Crafting with cat hair Something to do together You can join me on the chair We make a special pair
Will we make a mouse today I think we have enough If we can’t quite make it We’ll fill it with bits of fluff
And then some catnip mixed right in For you to get your reward Just a little not filled to the brim You know how crazy you get
Crafting with cat hair Something we’ve always done So what if we don’t have visitors We always have such fun
When we’re crafting, crafting with cat hair On the easy chair

Oh, this conjures up such great mental pictures! Me-OWW!
You had me at cat hair! I live with four of them, and have often accused them of offering me enough loose fir to make a new cat! This is great!
Oh, it's totally a thing. Because of course it is. Thanks for a decent belly laugh from this one!
I was laughing from the opening line.
Ooh, after the fun of the opening, that second chorus gives it a much darker feeling.
We used to live in an ancient four story house we rented. It had a cellar, but we never went down there for fear of what we might find.
Then we got a cat (won in a lottery - but that's another story). Anyway, she could squeeze her body flat enough to get under the old barn-like door to the cellar. Almost every day she would have one or two "thank you for the food" presents in the form of dead mice. That was enough for us to decide to take on a mortgage and buy our own modern flat. 😬
Sadly, Pussy (an original name in Catalunya) hated our new flat and escaped. Months later, the new tenants invited us into our old house to give us some mail that had arrived for us at that address. There, on the sofa, sat Pussy with a look on her face that said: "Oh no! They've found me!" 😈 - We let her stay with her new family, of course.
