Yes, she is a beauty isn't she? As of this moment, they are calling her Gingersnap but this changes every few minutes I was thinking "Sweetpea" since she came from our garden Lilac? Columbine? Peony? Forsythia? Petunia?

No way can I stay impartial on this one! But she's a lovely kitty, and I'm glad she found such a loving home!

Love, Columbine (but he can call me Flower if he wants to )

She was Nutella last night and Iris this morning When we were leaving our garage, she would appear from my iris bed. If she does end up being a he, the name will be Graham Cracker. (to go with Marshmallow & also the name of the other Lutheran pastor in their new town)

Anyway, she is now on her way to Indiana and will head out to Nebraska this weekend. As the kids left, I was thinking it felt good to be sending them off with a piece of my garden

Hazelnut is a good one.
The first pic showing her back made me think of S'mores, but the brownish...maybe Toffee.

I've always wanted to name a girl Chrysanthemum after the children's book character. She was a mouse but I loved saying the name, lol. *Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum, Chrysanthemum

I like Pawla too since she's completely declawed.

I think cats have the feline equivalent of the old hobo code, which would tell following wanderers where it was safe to ask for food, shelter, etc., and what places were off-limits.

Feline Leukemia and AIDS negative! An untraceable chip, pretty bad case of ear mites.

Female, so the name is...

IRIS!

This morning when mom said she always came out of the iris bed Jason and I thought Iris just had to be it. I now am the proud meowmie of one very grumpy cat! Not that I blame her, of course. This has been a crazy couple of days for her!

to your new world.


A beautiful cat with a beautiful new name.

YAY!!! Another Kevin Henkes lover!! Chrysanthemum is one of my all time favorite kids' books by him. I love the video that Scholastic did of it too, cause the person who narrated did a great job with personalities and voices.
Remember the line "A Chrysanthemum is a flower. It lives in the ground with worms and other dirty things." What a brat that kid was, lol. I love being a middle school librarian, but boy do I miss those picture books!!

As a mythology buff, I'm pleased to report that Iris is a Greek name, meaning "rainbow." The Goddess Iris was the messenger of Hera, Queen of the Gods, and has been described as swift, cheerful, dedicated, and intuitive. Here's a link to a lovely modern statue of the Greek Goddess Iris.

Love, Columbine

Congrats to another purrbaby!
