Here it is, the post you've been awaiting with great anticipation, my cats' nicknames!
Proper name: Marigold
Chad came up with her name after I wanted to name her Pumpkin. Marigold fits her better.
Breed: Persian

Rescued from: a family in Round Rock. She's a city girl like me. The suburban lifestyle just wasn't for her.

Mei-Mei (pronounced May-May & means little sister in some dialect of Chinese.)
Little Golden Bear

We thought she was a boy when we first got her. Kenji means "second son" in Japanese.
