Turnup, The Adventures Begin

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y90/clik-it/c313c7fd.jpg

From the loft of a barn, Turnup's very first act
Was to fall on his head with a resounding smack
His mom took no notice while feeding eight others
So Turnup ain't like his sisters and brothers

He sees things a bit different from most other cats
Probably didn't help when he ate that 'bad' rat
They say what don't kill you just makes you stronger
I reckon that's why he's live so much longer

His adventures are many, close friends are few
Most feel too close when he passes "peeee- eeeew"
With scant care or thought of quaint social graces
He pays little mind to the looks on their faces

So he wanders alone, the back alleys at night
An' frequently frequents an occasional cat fight
Sometimes he wins, sometimes he loses
Each loss shows the signs of Turnup's abuses

Though missing an ear an' blind in one eye
He still sees himself as the handsomest guy
His tail was once broken, it's still badly bent
But ya still gotta love this crusty ol' gent

Morning Soupy... Turnup is an old friend. He has has a lot of adventures, I expect there will be more... some I need to clear with Tim and Schoe. (Turnup's adventures get a might ... uh... 'colorful'.)

Thank you for the kinds words.

Thanks Tim and beenie.......

Though an endearing old cuss, Turnup can be trying at times. I do thank you for the read and very kind comments.

Turnup is a PERFECT cat
LOL when stationed on Guam lived in the boonies with beach on one side
and jungle out the front door a ways
Was a bunch of Wild Cats that finally got to come up to door an eat of
an evening when I whistled

Turnup reminds me of that gangs "leader"
Tell you what, you ever grab hold of a big old tom like that don't want
to be grabbed you better have something to wrap him up in cuz they
will make you bleed ! Know from personal experience trying to grab one
to throw out of the house
