Gizmo Scraggy Cat

A scraggy cat called Gizmo purrs.

Though he may not be of pretty fur.

He walks tall and owns his space.

Sure is the master of his cozy place.

 

Gizmo's not the prettiest cat.

But he's slender and not fat.

The food he likes, and doesn't rush.

Though it’s tasty. and so lush.

 

A friendlier cat you could not meet.

With a playful meow, he'll fondly greet.

Purring away in utter contentment.

Your resistance would be his very resentment.

 

Gizmo's a cat with inner beauty

With looks coming last, after his duty.

Gizmo cares nothing about his looks

When love and cuddles are his hooks.
