This
little thing was born in late September. It is supposed that she
was born September 15. The way I ended up with the little terror
is sort of an interesting story.
During the summer, my brother brought home this half-beaten orange male kitten. He could not meow worth beans. It was my sophmore year in high school and I had just joined cross country. And, as the story goes, my sister accidentally left the back door open, and out slipped Dexter, never to be seen again. I was somewhat upset over this, after all, this makes the second cat I lost in one year. So, I decided to wait for the next year before I got another cat.
Low and behold, in October, my math
teacher had a slight feline problem. Her father had a female cat,
and unfortunately, the poor creature was presumed eaten by coyotes.
She left behind three mother-dependent kittens. One of which was
Bonnie.
My family adopted her with open arms on October 5 when she was approximately 3 weeks old, but as she grew older, she would resist the attention we would always give to her. She then acquired the following names: Snot Cat, UniBonnie, Bonnicula, and, of course, Bonnie Binklecakes.
I wanted Bonnie's name to be unique
since there were already several Simbas and Nalas in my small town.
So I sat on the recliner and thought for a while. I finally said
aloud, "Bonnie!" And so she was called. But to me, her name
lacked that necessary length which makes it sound more glamorous, like
a movie star's name.
Well, one evening my sister was
making some cupcakes, and I was continually begging her for one when they
were finished since the batter was hands-off. My brother came in
with my little baby Bonnie, and somehow she was scared and started to run
through the kitchen. I gave chase and shouted out, "come here you
little binklecake!" My mom over-heard me and from that point on she
always used it when she'd refer to Bonnie. For a while I grew sick
of the name. But it is catchy, so I use it for her "last" name.
And as the years went by, her name grew longer and longer. Now I
have sufficiently lengthened her name to Bonnie Boo Bonbon Baby Beebee
Bella Binklecakes. I've stopped adding now. After all,
that's a long name for a cat.
