Names for your cat(s) that aren’t really cat names: 1. Hope 2. Vienna 3. Pee Pee aka Pete’s Pussy 4. Edward (AKA Ed or Eddie) 5. Friday 6. Atticus 7. Pita My brother’s girlfriend wanted to get a cat. As an incentive, she said my brother could name it. So they got the cat and my brother named it Pita. The girlfriend, who was relieved he hadn’t picked something bad, said that was a nice name and asked him how he came up with it. He said it stood for “pain in the ass”. ---

Glen When I was in University my room mates and I eventually adopted the neighbourhood street cat. No one remembered who owned him originally and he was taken care of by a generations of students until we took him in. He didn’t really have a name, other than “The Cat”. At the time, we lived on Glen Avenue so the name made a lot of sense (until we moved). He was a really big tom cat with extra toes and a little feral but otherwise he was a friendly and loyal pet. We really don’t know how old he was but he was probably 15+ when we had to put him down. ---
