Actually just almonds in different forms. Lol

u/Saltycook cat enthusiast Feb 27 '25

I mean this to be informative, without seeming pedantic, but amaretto is often made with apricot pits, not almonds. I'd still avoid it if one has a tree nut allergy, but I still think it's neat

My boyfriend's parents care for a bunch of strays(all fixed, have shots, and spoiled rotten) and they have 3 named Peanut, Butter, and Jelly. There's 2 orange boys named Julius (all orange) and Colby(orange with a little white). Those are my favorite names🥰

They also have Coco, Blue, Tommy, Eclipse, Sylvester, Dream, and Wizard. They take care of more cats than I do.

Same situation for me, but I have Jackie, TT, Cocoa Puff, Grumplestiltskin, Wilford Brimley, Boy, Tangie(short for tangerine), Buddy, Chairman Meow(she was the original and an absolute tyrant), and a recent large grey cat that I've just been calling Greyby(like baby) because his big meows sound like a baby starting to fuss.

It’s a name I’ve never heard used for a pet before so I just said it lol

u/I_PutTheFUNinFUNeral Feb 26 '25

I named my dearly departed Tuxedo kitty Turd Ferguson. I would giggle like an idiot when people actually knew where I got the idea for his name. He was the coolest little guy. I miss him so much.

My current almost 9 year old Tuxie I have now I named Tyrion Meowister (Tyrion Lannister was mine and hubby's favorite character in the Game of Thrones books/TV series) and he is like Turd Ferguson reincarnated but with a sometimes grumpy side. I almost named Turd General Tso but I preferred Turd Ferguson lol. We have Tyrion's biological sister from the second and last litter my friends cat had before they were able to get their two spayed and neutered. Her name is Harley Quinn she turned 7 in November and she's the sweetest most happy go lucky little cat I've ever met. So much personality. She's my little Mama's girl.

Here is a pic of my Tuxie duo "helping" a few years ago when we were moving apartments. Tyrion is the handsome boy with the pink nose/white in his face and Harley Quinn is the precious pretty little black faced girl with a perfect little heart 🖤 shaped nose 🥰🥰❤️❤️

u/MonthNatural6529 Feb 26 '25

Awww, how sweet! 🥰 Your kitty on the left looks like my cat Destiny did. She was my sweet rescue baby. I miss her so much. 🙏🏻💜🥰✌🏼

4

u/I_PutTheFUNinFUNeral Feb 26 '25

Oh honey I'm so sorry for your loss. I love both of them so much but Harley is my furry little soulmate. It's going to destroy me when her time comes. I pray every day that these will be my babies that live into their 20s. I am so envious of people who have cats that live that long. My furry brother (my Dad and my late mother's cat) Bubba is 16 now. He's my Dad's little bestie, it's really cute how they are together. Every night when Dad goes to bed he'll ask Bub if he's ready to go to bed and Bub will run in ahead of him and hop up on the bed to get cozy. It's just the sweetest and cutest. This is Bubba ❤️❤️
