MEOW—A Cat Poetry Anthology

Please pass along to those who will be interested…

Wanted: Poems about cats, involving cats or cat-like in their nature for a poetry anthology to be published in Fall 2009. (We’ll even consider poems about Catwoman and the Broadway musical Cats.) All genre of poetry will be considered from haiku to sonnets to limericks to free verse.

Looking for short poems not exceeding 50 lines that reflect the author’s best efforts. Original, unpublished work is preferred. Previously-published exceptional work will be considered.

A portion of any profits will be donated to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), the first humane society to be established in North America — an excellent organization dedicated to the care of cats, dogs and all non-human friends. /www.aspca.org/

Email poems and a brief three- to five-sentence bio to meow.poetry@yahoo.com Submissions can be either in the body of the email or as an attached Word.doc. Email subject line should read: Meow Submission: Your Name.
