Kitty AKA's

[pianoman1976]

Hello friends,

I'm curious to know if other pet owners out there have AKA's for their animal friends. I've got many for my cat's and my bird. These titles are quite important and they make up for much of the fun in pet ownership. In addition I've got songs, jingles, and little catch phrases for everyone under my roof.

I'll share my cat AKA's - and then you all can share yours if you've got em.

Marsalis - Fats Four Leggs, Moose Magilicutti - the fastest paw this side of the Mississippi, Otamus, Mooseman, The Fluffalump, Fluffalumpagis

Mia - The Bean Wadler, Mia Bean, Love Slug, Bean Machine, The Wadaleene, Bean Pod, The Wadlerlot, Mini Bean, The Bean Runt, Rumble Purr, Bean Slug

[zed32]

here's my cat's AKA's:

Amy - Kitten, God Dammit, Cat, Fucking Cat, Idiot, Fucking Idiot, Kitty, Fucking Idiot Cat, Little Wild Animal

I bet you love her with all of your fucking heart.

It's strange, only one of our cats seems to have other names. Steven calls Agile "Oonya" for some weird reason, but it might be his actual cat name (Steven knows stuff like that). I sometimes call Agile "Neutronium" because he is made of some incredibly dense material...he weighs about as much as Charger, who is 2 or 3 times his size. My latest theory is that he converts all the water in his body to deuterium. I'm trying to figure out how to use him as an energy source.

Steven reminded me we also sometimes call him "Agilicuddles".

I don't think she hates you. I think she's testing you. Jennifur tested me for a year or so and finally stopped and then declared her love for me and we've been a happy couple ever since

Patience, grasshopper.

LOL. That is so funny! It's clear you know some science Dragon! I too love to incorporate my science knowledge into "theories" that apply to my creatures. I'm typically drawing from the world of quantum physics. I make bold announcements about this or that sort of quantum phenomenon and/or special quantum ability pertaining to these beasts. My friends think I'm nuts.

[Dragon]

Aw, darn, and here I hoped you were serious.

I'm seriously working on a serious book about serious theories about the serious things I've observed about cats.

I'm calling it "Lick My Love Pump"

No, seriously...it's about cats and quantum physics. Jack Sarfatti encouraged me to write it.

well, she's hated me for two straight years, and all i've ever done was feed her, pick up her shit, buy her toys, let her destroy my furniture, and occasionally pick her up and throw her on to the couch (kitty launch, she likes it) from across the room. actually i take that back, she liked me when she was little, like when i first brought her home, but i think it was just because she was young and didn't know any better.

Shit.

OK, post a picture and tell me her name (and your name) and I'll see if my wife can do something about it.

[true-eurt]

Is your wife a Cat Whisperer Dragon?

[zed32]

haha NO! i don't want you guys to steal my cat. she likes me sometimes. she actually hates everyone else even worse than she hates me.

So you hang with Jack Sarfatti? I'm impressed. My biggest support comes from Lenny Susskind, although I'm doing my best to wrangle Ed Witten.

I'm big into tiny physics, M-Theory, the multiverse, mirror symmetry and noetics.

I'm very interested in this work of yours. While half of me jokes about this stuff - the other half is firmly rooted in some pretty far out theoretical concepts involving our four legged friends and their relation to the quantum field. For another thread.

Marsalis has mastered the art of quantum tunneling. He's a Schrodinger Toyger. I paid more for this upgrade from the breeder.

At one point or another, all our cats get called shithead, poopnugget, asshat...you name it....

[zed32]

whats quantum tunneling? thats not anything gay is it? you guys are scaring me...

She talks to everyone. Well, she says the fish don't have much to say and the reptiles don't either. But she's talked to almost every other kind of animal you can imagine, including lots of tigers, and she's talked to cats and dogs from thousands of miles away.

I didn't believe it either at first, but it's been proved too many times for me not to believe it.

Dragon, your cat stealing jig has been spoiled!

by the way this is Amy, 10 pounds 11 ounces of claws, teeth, and ears:

Sheesh, every time I mention my wife talking to someone's cat around here, they're afraid I'm going to do something bad to it.

Don't you get it...I couldn't do anything bad to a cat!

It might make for a good gay porn title.

Particles can also be called wave packets. There is some probability function that determines which part of the wave packet the mass of the particle is in. The tail of this probability function can extend into a seperate neighboring object, during which time, the particle could decide to jump to that other place and therefore reshape it's probability distribution.

Kinda like teleportation. The cat is in the backyard on the wall - no he's at the front door.

so you think your cat can move instantaneously from one place to another? i gotta learn to do that shit!

Hmm...noetics, holographic brain modeling, group consciousness, acoustic brain stimulation, magnetic anything, high voltage and lasers (mostly for fun).

Like I said...we have got to have a talk one of these days!

It just takes confidence.

Some of our cats know how to do that...you see them disappear or reappear out of the corner of your eye. Diane Duane calls it "sidling". And if you've never read her cat wizard books, drop everything right now and get them both. Seriously. It's billed as fiction but there's a lot more in there than most people would believe...you'll see.

Hey! You ever see a ghost cat? That's when you see a cat disappear/appear but it's none of your cats. We used to get them a lot around here. When cats see them, they chase them and that's what's going on when you think they're chasing nothing or something invisible.
