Explain your pets names!

[Felicia's Mom]

I'll just do the cats I have now and one RB cat.

Cleo- 1984-1989: came from a pet shop and was called Cleopatra by the people who worked there . I liked the name so it stayed with one exception; Cleopatra turned out to be a male. So he was still Cleo, but it was short for Cleophus.


Felicia- 1989-: That was the name of a singer I heard on the radio. I hadn't heard the name Felicia before, and thought it was beautiful. I promised myself that my next female cat would have it for a name.


Beau-1992-: His full name (not counting the Cattery name) is McCleo's Beau. I saw the word beau, decided it would be a nice name for a cat. He is also named after Cleo with the Mc from my last name.


Just want to add that most people get their pet and then think of a name. While I usually have the names selected first. Why? Because I do things backwards!

I wanted to say that Nebo in Russian means Sky - I love it . And this fits Nebo's blue eyes.

Wow I had no idea! That's so cool!

Sash- my boyfriend named him, he actually picked Sasha, but then we found out Sash was a little boy. so we shortened it to Sash.

Lucki- was Sash's sister and I named her Lucki because she was darn lucky to be found on such a cold day.

Blackie- obviously because he was all black and beautiful.

Kit- was my very first cat my dad found and we never had cats before, so we just started calling him Kitty and he became Kit, a beautiful charcoal grey cat.

Tabby- is our newest edition, he lives with my mom and dad and they named him Tabby, he's an orange tabby
