the cat's first name may be Mcxlplx, and his last name your own, but his REAL name is MURPHY.
*Iiiiii* named him.
*Iiiiii* was the first of the family to have any contact with him.
*Iiiiii* was the one whose forearm the little panicked ingrate shredded.
thus *Iiiiii* named him Murphy (after his squad-car coloration AND because so many things had gone wrong for him) and *Iiiiii* get the last word on the issue.
so there.
NYAGH!
Oh yeah?!
Well, I'm footin' the bills, now, mister, and I say his name is MCXLPLX!
*large, wet, raspberry sounds* to you!
NYAGH!
