My Pussy Cat Has Got the Gout

My pussy cat
Has got the gout,
And the rats and mice
Can play about.

Thanks and Acknowledgements

This rhyme cannot be found in two of the most comprehensive collections of nursery rhymes called The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes (1951) and The Annotated Mother Goose (1962). Perhaps it was new to the early 20th century. I found it in The Little Mother Goose (1912).

If anyone knows anything about the origin of this rhyme, or if you recall hearing it growing up, please email me and let me know. -Mama Lisa
