A year ago last Christmas I trapped one of the strays in front of my house, expecting to take him directly to my vet for neutering. However she was on vacation for a week. So for a week the cat sat in a large cage. Every time I would try to feed him or clean his litter box, he would growl at me. It sounded like a low hum. So I named him Hummer. He got to the vet and was released onto my porch, where he visits often.

Another front porch cat is Pretty Boy Floyd. He too had to spend a week in the cage. He has a very pretty, sweet face, but attacked my hand every time I tried to give him his meds in wet food. Pretty, but very dangerous. He has taken up residence on my front porch but keeps his distance (about 2 feet from me).

Mooch was doing just that when I took him in 5 years ago. Now he's an overweight couch potato.

My sister used to have a neighborhood kitty on her block that would roam from yard to yard. The cat was called Whitney by everyone on the block because she was black and very beautiful.

My sister's Meezer, Poco, got his name because he was so small when she adopted him (poco is an Italian word, a musical term for slight or small). Poco started out tiny but he grew up to be big, strong and verrrrrrry possessive of my sister. He also liked to eat lunch meat - just crackle the package and here comes Poco! - green beans, and the sauce from a Big Mac.

Cassie got her name (Cashmere) because my mom had on a grey cashmere blend sweater the day I told her and my dad I was adopting a kitty.

Spook got her name by the way she acts...most people assume she got the name because she is a black cat but noooo lol

You really have to be around her to realize that she is just a Spook.

Hoodini got his name because of his cat like ability to hide in obvious places and his ablity to quickly escape from any social situation. He never is interested in escaping out of the house, but he sure does dissapear quick when people are around! That and the name just fits him for some strange reason

. When we first got him both me and the hubby almost simultaniously said "Hoodini" when we were thinking of a name for him.

Remus is an interesting story. His full name is Remus Kibbyashi Maru, AKA the cat with no solution. The Remus part was inspired by a dream I had a few nights before I got him. In the dream I went to the shelter and a cat named Remus was waiting for me. When I did go to the shelter later in the week and saw him I knew I had found my Remus boy! The kibbyashi maru part was inspired by the Kobyashi Maru (sp?) of Star Trek fame. Basically it is a training scinerio that supposedly is unbeatable but all starfleet cadets must face it. Remus, too, has no solution. Sometimes you just can't figure him out! Everyone though, even people who claim to hate cats, loves Remus and tries to figure him out. I've stopped telling people that this is imposible
