Haiku for A Crossword Puzzle
Mordecai
My first feline love
Gentle seal point Siamese
Too mild for trailer life
Othello
Gorgeous passion cat
Fierce protector of our home
Held us together
Lysander
Fluffy Maine Coon
Saw me and jetted to our home
Sweet, sweet Lysander
Percy
Gray tuxedo cat
Peed in all the wrong places
But we still loved him
Michelle
Bringer of kittens
Found a safe home for her kittens.
Michelle, my bell
Cyrano
Small tuxedo cat
Imitated other cats
Such a sweet kitty
Angus
Cappuccino cat
He knows how to get his way
My heart is hostage
