Past:

Pepper
Sophie

Lelia
Sparkle

Uh, that's all. Lelia was my first ever cat and Sparkle, mostly called Farfle, came as a package deal with the husband.

Present day:
Pipurr! :hearthrob: She is a tuxedo bobtail mix. I am not her first owner; she has lived with a foster, and 2 other families before I finally met her. I am her last stop on this road we call life and she’ll be with me always! :blush::redheartpump: I didn’t want to confuse her, so I kept the name that her first family gave her. I’m assuming her name is meant to be a purring wordplay of the name “Piper”.

Past kitty:
Boots. I had her for 16 years from tiny kitten to senior before she passed of oral bone cancer a few years ago. Was very, very hard to lose her to that. She was named Boots for her little white paws. I don’t have a picture of her on this device but she was a fluffy grey long-hair with a white chin+chest+belly, and the faintest amount of white on the tip of her tail.

I also had a Pepper! She's the only rescue I ever named, and it still makes me sad that I couldn't keep her. She was the most adorable cat, and would follow me around 24/7. But, I know that she went to a really great home.

Past:
Linda
Tiger
Sookie
Pepper
Mittens
and countless kittens that I didn't name to avoid getting attached. In high school, I lived on a farm so there were plenty of stray cats and kittens. I would take them in and re-home them. It drove my parents insane, but they secretly loved having all the kittens around.

Present:
Gertrude aka Gigi (lives with my parents)
Hobbes

Hah! You had a Pepper and I had a Mittens-but my Mittens was a hamster.

…in lieu of listing all my cats’ names I‘m encouraging people to run out and buy a copy of “Working Cats” by Terry D. Gruber, which is not only my all time favorite photo book on cats (hint: great stocking stuffer!) but also has tons of inspiring, incredible names!
