Moar cat poems!!

Jenny on the need for more poems about cats, or at least her current success in placing cat poems -most recently one in the high-circulation NSW School Magazine:
Oddly, it's NOT one of the, ahem, three cat poems that I read at Continuum 8 (which was a marvellously warm and friendly Con, and all praise to the organisers). I was one of four people reading, in a batch including Kelly Link; I'd been deputed to read something suitable for kids, and I wasn't all that enthused about the idea of reading MY prose after Kelly's prose. Cat poems seemed the perfect answer [...]
From all accounts (I had a clash and couldn't get to it), the cat-poem reading at the convention was a great success.

Poems are based on natural themes and human emotions that can make anyone feel happy.
