"BEAUTIFUL"

Free illustrations of Cat

homeless



a hooligan cat homeless& t a t t e r e d 
hungry&lurking on my porch quite  b a t t e r e d
a bitten ear&one closed eye
the other so blue that it made me-  sigh !
I brought him in& soon my home was  s h a t t e r e d
but in time he loved me&I loved him too - sigh !

Very sweet and to some extent, hilarious. The image goes so well with your description. All the best dear Constance.
