That's a great name for a cat!
Sure, maybe not from the cat's perspective, but...

8. my cats' names are "meshugena" and "the other one"
Edited on Mon Jan-24-05 10:28 AM by unblock
"meshugena" is yiddish for "crazy", and "the other one" is self-explanatory, in a "who's on first" kind of vein.

the interesting thing is, when people visit, they somehow know to ask meshugena's name first, so then they say,

"what's the other one's name?"
"the other one"
"yes, the other one"
"right"
"what's her name"
"the other one"
"right, so it's meshugena and the other one"
"right"
"so what's the other one's name?"

you get the idea.

25. Nimbus
That was the name of a black Lab which pretty much owned the UNC campus in the early seventies. I always thought that was a great name for a Lab.

26. My little teacup poodle was named..
Miss Tuff Stuff Muffa Puff (Muffin or Muffy for short)
Her mother's name was Ragamuffin.

My sister named her little boy poodle, Kemo Sabe, the name that Tonto used to call the Lone Ranger, meaning "my friend" (I think)

May both R.I.P.

My current toy poodle is Babette

My sister's current miniature poodle is Prince

My daughter's current toy poodle is Maximillian (Max)
