Sometimes funny, sometimes touching, this adoption story, Won Ton, told entirely in haiku, is unforgettable.

Nice place they got here.

Bed. Bowl. Blankie. Just like home!

Or so I've been told.

Visiting hours!

Yawn. I pretend not to care.

Yet -- I sneak a peek.

So begins this beguiling tale of a wary shelter cat and the boy who takes him home.
