Well it is May and the countdown begins. His name will be Frankie(named after Franki Valli) I guess I am starting to collect old rock stars cause my 1 1/2 year old Abyssinian is named Dion, named after Dion Dimucci, the guy who sang "Run around Sue", and "Why must I be a teenager in love".

Frankie is a baby Ruddy Abyssinian approx 16 weeks old. I have my 3 older stray cats that I rescued thru the years one of them is 16 yrs old. I really enjoy the abyssinian breed so I decided to add another one to the household. Dion will now have a baby brother to do mass destruction with.

Here is his picture... He needs his little eyes cleaned, but never fear I will coddle him when he gets home!!!

I told her it sounds like her cats are named for a south side gang in chicago. I suggested names like Vinnie the Puss and Carlo "Whiskers" Gambone!!!!

Franki is just precious! I LOVE Abbys. Your names are really cute!

When I have more time, I'll make a special thread and share with everyone the names of our cats.

I joke that I'd love to be able to name cats after fish..Bass, Trout (my last name!), Mackerel, and then also have a group known as the "Veggie Kids" My dearly departed "Gus's" offical name was...you've guessed it--Asparagus! Oh, what a great cat he was! As names continue to "morph" into all sorts of cutsey words with our beloved babies, he also answered to Gustav. At one time he weighed 17 pounds and it was all muscle! Oh, the wonderful memories I have of him! I'd love to have a cat called Rudabagus! Kale, Celery, and Tomato are rather cute, too! In fact, for any of you that might know about Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab, Utah, you'll remember that in their bi-monthly magazine, they have the cutest column written by one of their deceased cats, Tomato. Yes, he's still writing the column even though he's not there with them physically! His picture adorns the page and it always makes you laugh because he always has something funny to relate.

One of our newest additions (oh! what a story that is!) is named Rudy Toot Toot. He's a red tabby. The neighbor kids came knocking on our door one morning as I was about to dash off for work. With a then current population of 28 cats, having two sad little girls holding a dirty, feisty little kitten with the most enormous eyes I've ever seen, was not what I expected to deal with but....their sad story fell on the right ears and when I handed him to my roommate she sighed and said, "Okay, we'll take him and get his shots, neutered, etc. and try to find a home for him". Yeah, right! If there is one cardinale rule in the Cook-Trout household, it is that: "Whenceforth a feline should cross the threshold of thy doorway, that said feline shall not therefore depart again!
We're "rescuers" who have never quite grasped the very helpful concept of not keeping all you find!

Anyway, Rudy is sensational! If ever there is was a cat that would be an absolute natural for TV commercials, it's Rudy! If I can ever figure out how to post pics, I'll send one along. He is truly adorable.

Please keep the pics coming!

Oh Kim, Frankie is doll and I can see why you can't wait to get him home. He is so precious, he makes me want to hold him. I love the color, his looks and everything. Good luck and may you have many many years of love.
Love, Ann

My girls went to the Rainbow Bridge 6 weeks and 3 days apart.
Snookie had cushing's disease, and later developed diabetes. Both had cancer, Snookie had cancer of the liver, and Chili Bean had cancer of the pallet. Chili Bean was our son's chihuahua but we kept her often throughout her life and she stayed with us for the last 9 months of her life. Chili Bean also had asthma and heart failure. We will see you in Heaven my precious darlings.

Thank you all for your kind words. I am really excited to pour my love into this little guy. From what his breeder said he has not quite gotten over being a mamas boy, and he is still trying to nurse. His mom weened him but another mommy in the group has adopted him... So cute..


Susan!! I love your names for your kitties!! I have a question.. Do you have any furniture left with your group? We place bets in our home on how long a couch will make it!!! LOL

Ann it is good to see you back, You always have kind and loving words to say. wub.gif

Here is a picture of Dion Dimucci (dimucci really fits cause Dion is da mooch of chicken!!)

Oops pic is a little big. Does any one know how to crop it???? Feel free to crop it for me.... Thx!! wub.gif
