Names

We were discussing our webpage oneday and thought you might like to know a little bit about us and our opinion on our names. But first, about us. I'm Lucy. I saw Caity at a fertilizer store last year at the end of human school and immediately knew she was my human. I'm a very pretty little kit with a butterscotch-colored body and a grey tail, completely covered with black streaks and pretty black markings on my face. Caity's family always tells me that I'm beautiful, and Caity says I look like some cat called Demeter. Okay Sunny, your turn!

When Caity was but a kitling, at the end of school, she wanted a kitten desperately. That's where I come in. My mother's humans were giving away us kittens, so Caity stopped by and there you go! I became Caity's first owner, me, the ginger tom. I chose her the second she walked in there; I knew I wanted her as a pet. Now for you Izzy. And remember: Be nice!

*scowls* Caity's dad was going to feed Sunny, 'cause Thunder hadn't been born yet. I had been abandoned *grr*, my eyes had just opened, and I was lying in the middle of the street, starving and about to die. Caity's dad thought I was a solid white rat and took a look at me. He brought me home. He's my pet actually, not Caity. But she's sort of my pet too. Although she had to bring that little pollicle of a kitten Lucy home! *hisses* Alright Thunder, the stage is all yours.

I'm a silver tom with some Egyptian blood, we think. Caity's older sister found me and my four brothers and sisters in a box next to her tire with a note saying that we were going to have to go to the humane society if no one took us in. She brought me back and Caity and her grandparents found homes for three of my littermates, gave my sister Catalina (previously known as Trouble) to Caity's best friends. And she kept me with her grandparents as Sunny's adopted little brother. I had a stroke a while ago, and it left me kind of... nervous, but at least I've got a great older brother to look out for me.

Now about our names! Caity wanted to name me Demeter or Persephone, but that kinda didn't happen. She found out that my Jellicle name was Latruza (using a Ouija board), but her parents said "no" to that too. It took them three days before they finally dubbed me Lucy!

*hiss* I liked it better when they just called you "Kitty"! I had hoped if they couldn't think of a name they'd just get sick of you.. *grr* But I had no such luck. Oh well.
When they found me, they named me. End of story. I was Isabella Diane (Izzy for short), although they did change my full name to Izabella: The Clamour Cat.

Cat named me Sunny because of my orange coloring. I... don't think she knew then that her Jellicle name was Sunsheria.

My name's Thunder because I'm grey like a thunder cloud. I guess it's just a coincidence that Sunny and I, the two toms, both have weather names, and the two queens, Izabella and Lucy, both have human names. The only problem with my name is.. I'm scared of thunder. *sheepish grin* I guess it's not incredibly appropriate, huh?
