Here’s my son, Boo. First pic and most recent.

A.K.A. Bubba Kitty, Mr. Bubba Kitty, Mr. Man, Booski, Boosker, Bubba, Love Bug, Stinky Boy, Stinky Bo Binky, and so on and so forth.

If you’re feeling extra spicy, post your ridiculous nicknames, too. 😁

Edit: the replies to this post have been way more incredible, beautiful, and heartwarming than I could have ever imagined. Thank yall for interacting with it. I love this community.

Also, I forgot a nickname for Boo:
Monsieur Bebé

Idk why lol the only French I know is from that Jesse McCartney song “Body Language” and from the 2000 Nickelodeon movie “Rugrats in Paris”

Cat Picture - OC Misconceptions a dog person (me) learned after having a cat.

The Cat Distribution System chose me, a formerly stubborn dog person, to adopt a cat. It was the classic I can't just watch a poor cat starve, so I'm keeping him. Here are some misconceptions I had about cats and their owners:

  1. The smell of a cat owner's home: I’ve known a few cat owners with cat-smelling homes. I always assumed it was the cat. Turns out it isn’t; it’s very much a result of poor ownership and bad cleaning habits.
  2. Dogs are more affectionate than cats: Also not true! To my surprise, my cat is so cuddly that I occasionally call him "Cat-dog."
  3. A Cat's Barbed tongue hurts: I don't know why I thought this, I just assumed it would hurt when they lick you.
  4. Litter boxes are disgusting: Not at all, it's just a clump or two of sand. If you scoop it often, it never gets gross.
  5. Cats are just as hard to take care of: Actually they're much easier, haha.

That is all, here's a picture of my cat that I love dearly. (He's lost weight since the picture, don't worry)

Anyone else relate? What did I miss?

Edit: His name is Pawl

Is my cat fat ? My friends always tell me that. Also my girlfriend says that he is not a british shorthair because his fur is longer than typical british shorthairs.
