For Navi, the left cat, we call her Chunka Munk, Plasticat, and Ms. Infected Lips.

For Scorpi, the cat on the right, we call him Mr. Small, Spider Cat, and Crybaby.

    My cat’s name is Spooky, since black cats are a common theme on Halloween (hey, that’s today!). We don’t call him Spooky very often, though. We often call him Spucky or Sporky, both originally mispronunciations of his name that someone said that we found funny. We also call him Scoopy, Kitty, Catster, and Mr. Cat.

    This is him after I opened a tube treat for him.

    (And no, my floor is not dirty. It’s old and damaged linoleum that looked like hell even when it was new.)

    This is Izzy, aka Her Majesty Queen Isabella Greypelt, Isabella Busy Boo, Izzy Boo, Busy Butt, and The Monochromatic Quadropus.

    This is Miss Chiff, aka Widdle Bit or Tiny Tux. She weighs 8 pounds and she hates everyone except my mother.

    Those pillows look like fake velvet microplastic fiber in that shot. If so, please consider switching your bedsheets and pillowcases out for natural fibers like cotton, hemp, or linen. Breathing in those fibers isn’t good for you or your cats.

      At the time we were using suede pillowcases, I believe. We have since switched to silk.

      That being said it’s all but impossible to avoid microplastics in attire. 100% cotton clothes are rare to come by, are expensive, and hard to wash and dry. Wool is all of the above with the addition of being itchy. All couches have carcinogenic fire retardants; all chicken is bathed in chlorine.

    Any mix of words with pussy, like, when she is mad she is spicy, a spicy pussy, so she’s a spussy. I also love to call her fat nugget because she is the exact colour of a nugget.

    This is Lucy, but at some point early on in our relationship my wife started calling her Chichi and it’s stuck.

        They are! I was only going to get one cat after a nasty divorce, but found out they were a bonded pair and went home with two. They keep the silence at bay. I couldn’t picture my life without them.

    For our Triscuit, we call her Triss most of the time. We really want another cat, a black one, to name Yennifer.
