Realize Cat Would Early Rise

we did realize
Patrick early he would raise
much to our surprise
(who hard four short thighs)
(has family ties)
(which we would surmise)
(wore a neat disguise)
(hit box after many tries)
(would chase away flies)
(for food often cries)
(both wet eyes always dries)

cat was quite a match
did drink water down the hatch
one had loved to latch


cat was always weird
learned that when his partner neared
he had disappeared

put cat box in din
which had become full again
our patience worn thin

our favorite pet
who would fool around and fret
away with murder let

My Horn Haiku format is 5-7-5.
Each number represents a vowel.
Haiku does not normally rhyme

not normally rhyme
but mine does all of the time
being so sublime
