In August of last year, we adopted three tiny 7-week-old kittens whom we promptly named Napoelon, Josephine and Theodore. Their names were longer than they were.

They are now a little over a year old and VERY BIG, and over that period of time they have aquired a number of nicknames. Today, our large and stately cats mostly go by Napinapo, Jojo and Toto. That's right. They had long historical names, and now they're called like Teletubbies. Life's unfair.

I found this AWESOME picture of Napoleon in a random folder yesterday evening, and I thought I would share. I wish I could say that I am great at taking cat pictures, but the truth is, I totally lucked into this one. I was trying to take a picture of Napoleon staring at the pigeons outside. And then he yawned, while still watching the potential food pigeons intently.






LJ people, please let me know if the picture doesn't show up, okay? :)

Napoleon is supercute, but I think his nickname is even better. Napinapo! Augh, too adorable.

And whatever the quality of your kitty pictures overall, I think I'd love to see more. Makes me want a kitty myself. ♥

I'm ruined by the internet, I can tell, because I have a desperate need to put captions on that photo.

I... don't know? I seem to just spontaneously create Silly Nicknames. The girls end up being very possessive about theirs. The sillier the better.

Tadpole's personal favourite is Plip-Ploup-Tralala. Sometimes she says to me, I AM PLIP-PLOUP-TRALALA. THAT'S ME. And... I don't even know how that one came into existence, either, though SOMETHING must have provoked me somehow.

THAT'S A GREAT IDEA! :D Yeah, my first reflex when I saw the picture was "... this would make a great LOLcat pic..."
