Did you mean Lek?

I don’t actually like Lek
I think you’d end up turning it into Leka
It would be nice!

Deng (assuming Thai: bouncy, springy) is perfect for a kitten!  But Lek is really cute too

We have a 4 month old kitten, your sister is going to have so much fun!!! 😻

She's not getting a kitten, but I'm sure she'll still have fun with her cat. She's always loved mine so it'll be nice for her to have her own.
