T.S. Eliot wrote in The Naming of Cats
The naming of cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m mad as a hatter
When I tell you a cat must have three
different names.
That’s our new cat, Benny, a Tonkinese. He has lots of names. It was difficult to bring a new cat into our house after we lost Frosty the Wonder Cat last year. But Benjamin J. Kitty-Kitty Bang-Bang Stormy Blue Boy XXIII has been fantastic. He loves sitting on the windowsill and watching the birds. I wish he’d chase away the Cooper’s Hawk that’s hanging around now.
