188. We have 3 cats

Mon Nov 11, 2024, 01:41 AM

Nov 11

1. Squeaker so named because he made a squeaky sound when he tried to meow as a kitten
Sometimes we call him Tubbo or Fatso - he is overweight

2. Missy - She and Squeaker have the same mother and look like twins. Her named just evolved

3. Eleanor - the Failed Foster. She has hated being touched by humans and won't get close to us. Because we thought she was a male, we named her Elliot Ness because she was "untouchable". WHen she went to be neutered, it turned out to be a spay instead. Thus Eleanor. She is such a loner, I often sing "Eleanor Rigby" substituting kitty for Rigby. Sometimes we call her Elly Belly.
Ellie fell head over heels for CatZilla, one of our Senior cats, and would snuggle with him all day. She missed him for a long time.
