Believe it or not, I usually struggle to name the cats.
The one outdoor cat a couple years back (1998 or so) got named “Katya” due to her stretching and applying claws to my backside.
So her name was actually “Cat...YAAAAAH!”
Which is what I was saying to her at the time.
I genuinely can’t tell. But so adorable.
It would not be advisable for you to turn to me for help naming your cats.
At one time, we had an indoor “Fluffy” and an outdoor “Fluffy”.
The only cat name I could take pride in is “Pogo”. He was a good guy.
I just give critters people names, or names connected to something the critter is or does.
Has worked so far.
Alas, she is not reals.
She’s sold on Etsy.

If you look at her price, TOL has very very good taste in kittehs.
My cats came from shelters. I kept their names because frankly they fit them.
My first cat was Cleopatra, and she was a downright spoiled rotten kitty, who was treated like a queen.
Second kitty was Holly. Rescued several days before Christmas, heavy with kitten. I kept it because she was a Christmas miracle, and Holly is the name of a character on one of my all time favorite TV shows, “Red Dwarf”
Here's a little something ta set yer day on the right heading.
My first cat was a longhaired tuxedo kitty named Princess Caroline Matilde.
She was originally a barn cat, her owner gave her to us when I was little.
My next kitty was a longhaired mackerel tabby with white named Mimi.
She was a feral that decided chicken and laps were worthwhile pursuits.
Following her was my only shorthair kitty, a cow cat named Kearen Marie.
She was a shelter cat, and so far the only one.
Kearen passed on in 2010 on my sister’s birthday, and there was a stretch where I didn’t have a kitty.
Then last year Ceirdwyn informed me that I was her human.
She and her siblings were born outdoors, momma cat then abandoned four of her six kittens.
Reportedly the litter was “three black, three butterscotch tabby”.
One black and one butterscotch were longhaired.
Still can’t get over how relatively tiny Dwyn is compared to every other cat I had prior.
(Full name is fitting for her, Ceirdwyn Trioblaid. “Crooked woman of trouble.”)
If and when I get another cat, I want you Darks to help me name it.
You have the best names since Eliot wrote Old Possum.
The squee!
Slings! I’ve gone blind.
Oh I liked that video. Pirates and the Grim Reaper. The music was nice too but now I have that song in my head.
Thanks for bringing it here.
Here are some kittens for your Monday.
Yes, after taking a very close look at kitteh, I could see
that she is a stuffed toy. Sigh... I just knew that tail was
just too big to be real.
Just having her picture will have to be enough for me.
They wanted 600 for her.
Even if I was wealthy, I don’t know I’d I would spend that money. I’d give it to charity.
If she was under 20-30 I’d buy her in a heartbeat.
Or if I won power ball, I’d buy her, and one for you too my friend.
That looks like my living room, exactly like my couch. And of course, the bookshelves.
Books, glorious books.
