oh, just call her Fergus. Its cute and I'm sure she won't mind.
Jazz used to be Jasmine, until we discovered his little bits. I'm sure he wouldn't have minded Jasmine either, heh. Jazz & his mama -- Irulan from the stars we come to the stars we return from now until the end of time "Yowie" wrote in message ... Fergie? Fergette? Fergusina? Fergusia? Turns out that IBK(formallyknownas)Fergus is actually a her. The, err, boy bits turned out to be a strange optical illusion from the very faint tabby pattern within her fur. They didn't look quite so, err, boy-like today, and when I confrimed their presence - or in this case, absence - with my finger, I revealed not black fuzzy marbles but an exclamation point. But of course, now she *answers* to "Fergus" - or at least, answers as much as any cat ever does to their name. It will still take a bit of work to remember to refer to the small mostly black whirlwind of doom as "she", but I"ll guess we'll get the hang of it eventually. So, the score has evened up. 3 boys and 3 girls.. Excellent. Yowie |

She had two kitties, Lucy & Ethel. They were checked and got their first shots from the vet. When they went back for the next round a few weeks later, they had to change their names to Ricky & Fred.
