Very delightful to read all the way through. I love the characterization and the descriptive phrases. Th rhyme and rhythm and the artwork add to the meaning of your poem. Great job!!!

Mice need to stick to cheese. Leave the drinking to the cats- a higher tolerance and a drunk cat is not so good at catching mice. I know it is for the sake of the rhyme, but "wrung like a cellphone" seems forced. Wrung is also not correct as it means to twist or compress. Rang is the only past tense of ring.

What a delightful poem. And it certainly did bring a smile to my face.
I loved the rhyme and the story. Most of all I loved their party lifestyle, free booze and leftovers. My type of diet

Author: just what I love, creativity, originality, a fresh look at something. You have done it all, made me giggle. Your words placed me in the restaurant and I was able to watch the goings-on. Very nice and fun work. Good luck in the contest. livelylinda

I really admire poets who can inject laughter in their poetry as you did in this poem. I really don't have the gift to conjure up giggles among my readers. I guess I am not cut for it. My hats off to you for making me laugh. God bless.

This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very humorous read. There is good imagery and descriptive scheme.

Well deserved six stars. You have nailed it as far as paying attention to what the prompt asked for. That is making the reader laugh. This is funny, cute, and also reminds me a little of the movie "Ratatouille" which is one of my favorite animated movies. I wish you all the luck in this contest. Great job!
