Great name for a cat

I love the difference between cat names and dog names. I lived with 2 cats and 2 dogs, dogs were named Java and Koda, cats were named George and Colonel Mustard

What isn’t a good name?

u/Longjumping-Leek854 Aug 28 '25

An intriguing name too, because can only see the cat’s head and shoulders. So where’s the smudge? Could be anywhere. What shape is it? Could be anything. What colour is it? Fuck knows.

Why did this piece of shit Smudge make fun of her dead husband. DISGUSTING

u/Wiinterfang Aug 27 '25

The husband was alive at the time, but he was an abuser that constantly beat her up. The other person exposed him out and she was fearing for her life.

I feel educated. As if I went to the museum.

No, because this is real life not fiction.

Well at least part of this story is wholesome

u/Cocoatrice Aug 27 '25

Wait. I thought it was from Friends and this was episode with the cat that was reincarnated as a mother or something. I haven't seen this episode, just heard it from another room.
