Hi, fellow furry folks! We made it to Friday, so that makes mom happy.


So recently Toby made a big deal about his names, but I have a name story too!

Mom believes the naming of cats is VERY impawant. Originally, I was Dulcie.
pawse while I shudder at that happily brief memory

But it really didn't suit me. I mean, do I LOOK like a Dulcie to you?
No. No, I do not.

So, Mom went to work figuring out what name, in fact, I belonged to.
After consultations with Auntie Mary and much thought, the name Leia came to be.

And naturally, I am a Princess, so that part was easy. 
Just so we are clear, my name and title has
N O T H I N G to do with that other Princess Leia.

Happy Friday, and Caturday, to all.

  5. Your name is perfect. And we have no idea who that other PL is. :-)

    We all had different names too, many times foisted on us by well meaning shelter workers. We all told our mom what our true names are and thank cod she listened. (Caroline's shelter name was 'Sinatra' just because of her blue eyes. Can you IMAGINE that??)

  8. Names are VERY important Princess Leia! XXX It took all three of my brothers voting about MY name before it was given to me.

  9. The Hubby and I try to let each kitty name themselves; sometimes that works, and other times a name just pops into our heads! Maybe that's the cat naming themselves after all!
