lovingly by its own little kitten (here)

the 12 given words:
bowl busy class curl drop echoing 
jealous light velvet  silvery oil still 

bowled over but never felt it
it was just too busy to bother
in a class within its own right
it would curl warmly under

would drop a hint when bored
echoing tendencies of its mother
jealous of the attention accorded
when often lightly smothered

its velvet coat in silvery shine
seemingly oiled to good effect
still taken as one in its prime
adored not under any pretext
