MaBelle Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 We were at family's house for a cookout and there was a precious calico kitten out in the yard. When I asked about it I didn't like the answer (the "special" kitten was kept inside but apparently this little one was not good enough) so I picked it up and sent dh home with it immediately. She is now firmly ensconced in our catio with the waif I found a week ago. So, another vet visit and I need a name. The other little one's name is Smudge, and we have two other calicos named Sally and Sissy. 10 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storygirl Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 My sister had a cat named Skoshi (meaning "little bit"). A cute and unusual S name. I'm glad your kitty has a loving home now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maize Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) 5 hours ago, Arctic Mama said: OH MAN! My grandparents had a Westie named Skoshi, it was the only animal I’d ever heard of with that name. They had been stationed in Japan for awhile while grandpa was serving, and that’s where they picked it up. It’s definitely unusual but I have such fond attachment to that name. Unique for sure! Sukoshi would be the transliteration of the Japanese spelling; does sound like Skoshi though. Edited July 5, 2019 by maize 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Sunshine. Then you'd have Sissy, Sally and Sunshine. Kinda rolls off the tongue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaBelle Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Little black one in the foreground is Smudge. Found her in my son's neighborhood a week ago, no one claimed her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually don't know how my sister spelled it; I was guessing!! I think she and a roommate named the cat together, and then my sister ended up keeping the cat when the roommate moved away. It's not a name that our family knew of, so I think it must have been the roommate's idea. She was an all black kitty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanaqui Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Oh, what a pretty girl! Both of them, and they get along? How wonderful! You seem to like S names, so how about "Special"? Because she IS, no matter what somebody else might have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
