I just so happened to be thinking about cats and "hyperbole" the other day, but couldn't quite remember what hyperbole was. So, I searched deep into Wikipedia and discovered "hyperbole" is a fantastical exaggeration that has nothing to do with cats, except for the following example:
"It was raining cats and dogs."
Another example which DOESN'T include cats would be: "She weighed a ton," unless of course we're talking about your mamma, then she probably does.
Now, if we apply hyperbole and light verse to cats, we might come up with something like:
Harvesting Cats
By Tracy Farr
"I harvest my cats from a cat-bearing tree"
Is a feline example of hyfurballe.
