Introducing Meow Cat

The photo shows Meow Cat, a black fluffy cat that resides at our latest house-sit. Isn’t he a beauty? The other cat, Charlie, has already been written about here. He is more or less white and even fluffier than Meow Cat. Meow Cat seems a funny name to me but that’s okay. Have you had a cat with a strange name? We had one called Cefa once (Cee for cat). But that’s probably about the most unusual. One name that I loved and thought was very clever was Don Quixote. This was a donkey (Donkey Oti) which is pretty obvious once you think about it.

Yes, it is a funny name. The funniest one I knew was Catcat, she was a calico that mom took in when her owner didn't want her anymore, she lived 21 years. Beautiful kitty, reminds me of my first cat.

My brother brought home a young cat when he came home at Christmas and wasn't going back. The other 3 guys were going to abandon her - I've got to say, my brother really went up a few notches in my opinion that day. Those clever boys named her "Cat."

Her first owner was a man with no imagination and didn't take very good care of her. She was very pretty and sweet natured.

That's a cute name. I love calico cats. 21 years is a good age for a cat.

We don't let him inside as often as he thinks we should.

Meow Cat is a beauty, he has the fierce look that almost all black cats have. My mother in law had a male cat called Nadir and a female cat called Murly, both Siamese.

@JudyEv I wonder if it came from an Opera, my MIL loved Opera.

There are ornaments here of Siamese cats but my photos are blurred. I'll try to take better ones tomorrow. Murly seems an unusual name.

Friends used to have two cats simply called 'Black cat' and 'Grey cat'. Other friends had a dog called 'Skyli' from the Greek Skylos meaning dog. And I remember an Iranian colleague had a dog and a cat and I'm sure they were simply named 'dog' and 'cat' in a different language, although I'm not sure what - I've just looked up dog and cat in Farsi and they don't seem to be at all familiar.

The names I didn't like were 'Chops' and 'Roast' for two pet lambs.

@BarBaraPrz I thought so too. When we reared pet lambs on the farm (and we raised dozens), they were never eaten.

I have named cats strange names over the years, but nothing that stands out. Meow Cat looks velvety soft and almost as big as Bruno.

Both he and Charlie are big-framed cats.

I used to have one named Fluffdaddy. I didn't name him. I inherited him. He was named for Sean Combs music artist now known as P Diddy, but was Puffdaddy back in the day.

He is indeed. He would weigh a few pounds.

He is a handsome fellow but looks rather mean. Looking at the photo of Meow Cat and of @evilamericans Emoci and adding a photo of my Morticia they could start a black and white and black cat club. Then add in my Freddie who is black and white and there you have it a cat layer cake,

I love Meow Cat's name. He's a beauty for sure. All our dogs have had Norwegian names (for Norwegian dogs) except our two Pomeranians.

That's was a nice idea to choose Norwegian names. A friend who bred Welsh ponies always chose Welsh names for them.

Black cats are a bit like that, aren't they? Goats have quite scary eyes too sometimes.

Meow Cat looks like his eyes could bore a hole in you, but he certainly is a pretty kitty.

We haven't been letting them inside much so he was a bit miffed with me.

Love Donkey Oti. That's like naming a van Go... Meow Cat doesn't look impressed with you taking his photo.
