Edit: omg everyone please reply to each other with suggested additional nicknames
SIMBA -> SIMBABIMBA
yeah, that works nicely
Percy aka Percy-Cat and No, you’ve already been fed!
Miss Caligula, in keeping with a Roman naming tradition. Usually shortened to Cali, or more often than not just goes by kitty.
I’ve got two. A void and (I think) a blue point.
The void is Apollo, but his nickname is “what is that in your mouth”
The blue point is Islay, but her nickname is “how the fuck did you get the toilet paper again”
Her name is Masha, but I call her “Estás bien fea” (“you are so ugly”). She doesn’t mind.
Why dignify such obvious lies with a reaction 😒
Anya (she and all of her litter mates were named for Buffy TVS characters): frequently referred to as Fluffy Girl, Hissy Face, or Lady Shedsalot
Ozymandias (named for one of my favorite poems, but also to kind of keep with the Buffy theme): Oz, Ozzy, Bubby, Fuzzy Boy, Big Boy, Squeaky, Fluff For Brains
This is Luna. Her nicknames include: Stinky Lady, Baboona, Beepy Boopa, Loons, Lunar. Plus more that I’m sure I’m forgetting.
Nova and Athena. SillyButt and BabyKitty.

This is Izzy.

Omg you got your cat to sleep somewhere that’s not directly on the fucking keyboard!?!? Who are you so wise in the ways of cats?
I did still have to create a profile for my keyboard called CAT which disables all buttons for when he decides to forgo the 10000 beds and little spots he has, to instead gaze at my keyboard and think “This right here? This is mine. It is bed”
The trick is having a decoy keyboard!
Name: Emily
Nickname: Emmerly. Sometimes I sing “Emmerly and Ivory” to her 😁
Name: Charlotte
Nickname: Char-Char
I also refer to them as “The Sisters” or “The Fabulous Staredycat Sisters” since they are in fact sisters from the same litter and love staring at me, visitors, and each other 😄
A rare moment of them getting along outside of having fun playfighting:
Things I love about this comment:
- Singing Emmerly and Ivory
- Emmerly’s mlem matching the cat food bag
- “Staredycat Sister’s”
- The fact that Char Char is a tortoiseshell, because I think they look like orange cats that got stuck in a sooty chimney
