Mrs. Rankin had a cat

and a fine Cat was she

She was a beautiful Cat, a magnificent Cat

as magnificent as a Cat can be...

So begins the heart warming and witty poem "Mrs. Rankin's Cat" by Le Jeune Pershing Partrick. Inspired by a poem called "Casey's Goat," which Partrick read in his youth, the poet set out to honor the immortal feline in verse, choosing his sister's black housecat as the protagonist of this mini-epic. The poem, Partrick will tell you, is written to be "entertaining, informative, and humorous" and is accompanied by the poem "The Golden Years," a comedic take on life after retirement.
