This evening I got home, sprawled on the couch and passively watched the cats do their cat thing. Little Fiona was doing as all well-groomed kitties do: she was cleaning her fur and polishing her refined image. But while she was doing it, I noticed...something.
Suspicious, I called my mom up and asked her how to sex a cat. She said it was hard to tell, but I reported to her what I had witnessed, and she started laughing.
Yep. Turns out dear, sweet Fiona Girl is a Fiona Boy!!!
I can't deny I'm a little disappointed, because Fiona Girl was fun to say. Not only that, but I was so used to thinking she was a pretty girl. Now...a pretty boy. Not as great a social connotation. (But cats are always above that, eh?)
That's probably why "she" likes beer.
Saint Arnold's - at least he has good taste.
Now I've got to come up with a new name for him. Any suggestions?

How about "Finny Boy"?
Cute picture! :o)
Hmmmmmmm.....let me think about that one! That's funny! Do you remember the 2 cats that we used to have (back when I was still in high school)? There was a black one w/ no tail named Eva and a black and white one named Zsa Zsa. Well, as it turned out....Zsa Zsa was not a she. So....I ended up naming him Ernie (what a switch, huh??? ha ha) If I think of any.....I'll let you know!
I think I remember Ernie!
Finny Boy! Fun to say.
It should also be noted that I have an Oliver cat, so I was thinking something with an "O". Oliver and Owen? Though I'm not sure Owen suits him.
This will take time!
How about Anoif (it's Fiona spelled backwards.....hey, it would make a great conversation starter!).
Onesimus. I don't know where I've heard that name before....it just popped in my head when you mentioned an 'O' name.
I have pictures of you and RJ holding Ernie. None of Eva, though. She was a shy girl.
I love the name Oliver! When my sister was pregos she thought she was having a boy and I begged her to name him Oliver so that I could say "'ello, Ollie" [with an English accent] but she said no. It's okay, she wound up having a girl instead...
I also like the name Harold but I don't know why.
My Oliver has his own nickname - "Ollie Ollie!" Must be said with high volume and with a stress on the second Ollie.
I have pics of him under "The Berta Fam"
Aunt Katie - what the heck is the origin of Oneismosssehrhe?
sounds samoan! or something. hehehe.
