Our Cats

 
Tussi~
She was a little ball of fur,
Given to us with a red ribbon,
As a present for my brother.
 
She is the leader of the five,
The peacekeeper and queen,
She is the oldies of them all.
 
Casanova~
His head was hit many times,
And led to believe he was wild,
But when we took him in he slept.
 
He is so cute when he toss is head,
And he smiles more then any cat,
And we hardly notice the damaged brain.
 
Casper~
He and his sister was meant to be killed,
But we took this special albino inn,
And never have we had a deaf cat before.
 
His face sometimes looks like a humans,
And his attitude is so abnormal,
But he is a part of our rather big family.
 
Missy~
She came along with her brother,
She was so tiny of growth and early-
she stopped growing at all, so tiny!
 
She looks like a little kitten baby still,
And she is the most cosy of them all,
She is my special little baby.
 
Ludvik~
The neighbour cat he once was,
Beaten and abused in the worst ways,
We kids saved him and adopted him.
 
We never really see him much,
He is always so very shy,
And loves to be outside all day.
 
              ~
 
So as you see all our five cats,
Are cats we took from bad places,
Only our first one, Tussi,
Came from a loving home.
 
              ~

Prompt: How did I get my cat(s)

On the background you can see Tussi, Missy, Casper and Casanova. Ludvik came after I made this and I never got around to make a new one

Please tell me what you think

    A wonderful family you have here and you told their story very well. I guess Tussi must be the black one in the picture with you. Great background as well.

    Very Nice....Best wishes in the contest

    AWWW, oh I was reading this and it is always tough to hear about animals being abused, I can't stand it. But then you gave them a good home and I really respect people like that, those are people with good hearts. And I loved this poem because it let me see where you got your cats and I always love hearing stories about pets, especially since I am a major cat lover myself.
    When I read about Casanova in particular made me sad because you said in the poem about the cat having a damaged brain, but at least the cat sounds like a trooper, and that is good.
    I loved this poem, very well done here.

      Casanova is so cute when he tosses his head around, and he sure is a trooper. I love him, just as much as I love every cat.

      I've grown up with a mother who took in stray cats and usualy before they was just a little bit wild and hungry, but now, they are abused and hurt in the worst ways. This is a thing I will never stop, for nothing brings me more happyness then to see a little cat smile back up at me ^-^
