Howabout a classic Greek name like "Malaka"?
it's either one or the other, or neither of the two.

P.S. Even though we have lots of cats, we don't live in a house that looks like there's lots of cats!
You know what I mean, we've all seen programmes etc that feature crazy cat ladies with stinky, litter filled homes... Mine isn't like that!

Well minou is just puss or kitty (for a male cat) in French.

And as for malaka - I am so glad you didn't choose that name! That's greek for w***er (a male one, they have a word for a female one too). :lol:

I am also very glad that I didn't get attached to Malaka! Sounded very pretty until you said that :lol:

Glad I could help...sad thing is I'm VERY allergic to pussies :cry:

Maybe you could keep us posted with piccies as Toma grows and I can 'virtually' share her, plz?

if you wanted another offensive-ish greek name you could go for "munara-mu" meaning "what a beautiful pu$$y"....ahem, but sort of the wrong kind...ahem...

sorry, lived with a greek bloke in halls at uni lol!! he only taught me the choicest of words!!!


and i know minou means pussycat in french, thats why i love it. it's a prettier way of saying it. i like toma though!!

Aww, I've always wanted to be 'that' lady!!
Although the ones they show on the telly usually DON'T have litter boxes........ :shaking:

There's a painting in our local Bank (on sale from the college) that shows an old lady with a walking stick, taking a walk in the moonlight followed by dozens of cats - all in silhouette..... I always tell Andy that I want to be her when I grow up :mrgreen:
The more people I meet, the more I like my garden :wink:
