Whiskers was a little cat
black and white and tan
he had the personality
of a little old cranky man
His whiskers my face would tickle
his purrs would put me to sleep
he would fuss and fuss and fuss
as in to my lap he would leap
He was my very best friend
no matter how cranky he was
I loved him with all my heart
in spite of all of his flaws

Your cat sounds like a wonderful character. His mannerisms are quite amusing. Thank you for your entry.

Leave it alone
I would suggest leaving it as it is,it works,flows and delivers a beautiful image.I loved "CRANKY" it fitted in perfectly.Thankyou for your entry.
