Further Miss Whiskers update...

The ones I'm thinking about for Miss Whiskers are Egyptian and a Eshe - which means "Life" Jendayi - which means "Thankful" Omorose - which means "Beautiful" Sagira - which means "Little one" and "Lotus" as in Lotus flower, which I just really like. I'm leaning towards "Lotus" at the moment as it seems to fit. We'll see which one fits in the next few days. "His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger" had about 20 different names until he told me what he was called. ;o) Helen M My cats generally end up with operatic names. If I had a one-eyed female cat, she'd probably be "(Princess) Eboli" from the opera "Don Carlo". Her real-life counterpart was the mistress of Philippe II of Spain, reputed to be a great beauty, and she was known to wear a patch over one eye (presumably due to injury). |

So many Miss Whiskers posts today. She's so loved, so wonderful. I wonder how she got the way she was? I don't think it's possible that a person could so something like that on purpose. |

Congratulations to Miss Whiskers for wending her way into your life in such
a short time. I'm so glad that the operation went well and am looking forward to pictures and a new name!

Eshe - which means "Life" Jendayi - which means "Thankful" Omorose - which means "Beautiful" Sagira - which means "Little one" and "Lotus" as in Lotus flower, which I just really like. I'm leaning towards "Lotus" at the moment as it seems to fit. I vote for Eshe, because she CHOSE Life after all she's been through, and fought for it, and WON.
