Cat names

Borrowed the idea from "The Defective Yeti" blog. As we all know, cats have more than one name. Otto is our "almost 12" 7kg, soft and gentle tomcat, Cumin is his 2 year old female charge.

We have had Sir Humphrey of Upland, Rigby and our current fellow, Linus McDonald. Cats with people names are cool, cats named for their behavior - even more fun!

Jaeger is German for Hunter
Meisie is Afrikaans for "Little Miss"
It is also a pun on the name of the potent alcoholic drink "Jaegermeister" (which I don't drink btw:-)
