Alright. As of this moment it is not letting me create a title. Not sure why... blogger is fickle I suppose. That's alright- we all deserve our PMS moments. Otherwise, I would title this one "The One Where Kali Gets A Cat."


Yes, it's true. I'm getting a little kitten. It followed Mom home one day while she was walking the dogs, and I decided to keep it.
While this little guy to your left is not my kitten, mine looks something like this. But smaller... he's weighing in at a whopping 2 pounds. Now, my dilemma is what to name him (FYI, the vet checked and it is for sure a him. A him with a very bad case of ear mites though, poor guy.). So, after ruling out Dinky (my Dad had an orange tabby when I was born named Dinky, so that's just what I imagined them all to be names) and K.C. (short for kitty cat), I'm back at the drawing board. My mom has suggested the following:
Igby- after my favorite movie's lead character
Kitler- cause it's just funny
Leo the Lion, Leo for short- cause I'm a leo, and it makes him sound awful fierce
And then, from my favorite comic "Get Fuzzy" Bucky Katt has a few friends with interesting names. Not sure I want to name my cat one of these per se... but I'll put them up for auction as well.
Meowssolini
Ghengis Khat
Cattila the Runt
Feral Catsro
So, I need your help good people. Name my cat!

the names you have picked out for your cat are absolutely wonderful.

i'm sitting in my room being all nervous about my stupid job interview tomorrow morning, and this entry absolutely calmed my nerves. god, i love you.

your cat kind looks like a josie.
like josie and the pussycats.
too bad it's a dude.
blah, i'm not helping.

here's some suggests -- bandit, cosmo, zeke, dexter, gatscy, tigger, heatcliff, kizmo, ozzie, rascal.

out of your suggestions... leo the lion was my favorite.

OR, it could be Catsby. Cause it's a cat... get it? Although I do like Gatsby.

I like Igby - he sorta looks like an Igby - all legs and lanky. Of course "Cat Ballou" is always a good choice.

I'll say Thomas or James. I always like it when animals have people names. I think its funny. Or maybe Jeeves, like a butler or something.

I had a cat for about a week named Jack. I thought that was a good name. But I also agree with mom, I like Igby.

I should work with you. I need some fun new work clothes. Stat.
