PUFF, my childhood cat, I found on the way home from school. I say found. But now all these years later, maybe I stole him from someone. He followed me and I took him home. He was little, black and white. I have no idea why I named him Puff. But later I sang "Puff the Magic Kitty" to him.

LEROY was black with a thin thin white ring around his lips. He was a stray, he just hung around my appt. He looked like the old time black singers, when they preformed and painted their lips pure white. He was King Leroy Lamont

TONEE, I bought from a private family that had bought her from a breeder. Their old dog just didn't like her so they needed to sell her. Her name was Danielle, she was 12 weeks old then. But I changed it to Tonee. Well I made her papers say "Antoinette Germaine" her real name was #sm105507. She was Princess Antoinette Germaine.

KELCEE was #1364. I adopted her over the phone after seeing her in the shelter. I was at work thinking about her and called to get more info. They told me that 'today' was her last day, and if I wanted I could put a hold on her. I did. When I saw her in the shelter I didn't even know if she was a boy or girl. That night I was watching TV, "L.A. Law" and when they said Anne Kelsey, I thought "OH Kelcee would be a cute name for the kitty". I had already had Tonee, the two ee thing going so wanted to keep that ee thing. Her middle name is Yorel. which is Leroy backwards, her brother before her. She is Princess Kelcee Yorel

SHEP-EE Lynn was my husbands dog. She was a stray on his dead end road. He started calling her 'the old shepherd girl' and then shortened it to Shep as years went by. When we met, I said she needed a middle name, thus came the Lynn, and the two ee thing again! She was Queen Shep-ee Lynn.

ASHLEE was named Asher from the shelter. Her owners gave her up. So sometimes we still call her Asher. But had to get the ee thing in there again. And we added her middle name, Rose, after Rose Nylan (Betty White) on the "Golden Girls". Betty is a real animal person. She is Lady Ashlee Rose.

NINA was named Nina and we added Princess Nina Grace. We sometimes spell her name Nee-na
