Okay, I’ve named Mama. Who knows when she’s going to birth those babies? I was initially going to name her – at someone’s suggestion – Loretta Lynn and then name the babies after country singers, but then Amy swooped in on Friday morning and made another suggestion that I really liked:
While listening to my song list on shuffle, Kokomo by the Beach Boys came on and I thought Aruba, Jamaica, Bahama, Largo and Kokomo would be interesting names. Maybe I just have the beach on my mind too much..
So meet…
Kokomo. We’ll call her Koko, of course.
Except for Bahama, none of the names have been used – I went and looked at the lyrics (it’s been a while since I heard the song), and added Martinique and Monserrat to the list (we’ll skip Port Au Prince), so as long as she has fewer than seven kittens, we’re good to go. Thanks for the suggestion, Amy!
I introduced Koko to the Petstages Purr Pillow and she was initially interested in it.
“Hello? HELLO? Why you purring at me, weirdo?” But then she lost interest and moved on.
“Oooh, this is purty!”
