This puzzle's clues were hand-written by participants of all ages at the Maynard Jackson High School (mascot: jaguar) Bookfair at Barnes and Noble Edgewood on December 12, 2015, and very lightly copy-edited for this version. The grid was designed by Sarah Boddy. You can find photos of this event and other puzzles to solve at participatorydemocrossy.com. I also recommend googling "the literary cat"!
