Scootnanigans

This is a picture of West Coast Suzy’s cat, Scooter, fighting some Christmas tree garland. I’m told the cat in the background is named Tigger.

I got to thinking about if I had a cat named Scooter, what I would actually call it. I’ve talked before about how I shorten names and honestly, Mister Biscuits is more often called Pitters than anything else. I had a friend who had a cat named Black Natty. It was a black cat and natty was her way of calling any cat. Kind of like kitty. So if she saw your cat she’d be all, “Who is this natty? What a wittle natty.” That kind of thing.

If I had a cat named Scooter I’d call him Scoots McGoots. Then probably just Scoots.
And mostly Pitters.

So creative and yet, so lazy.
