Mutant squirrels rock...

Very little going on at Black Dog HQ, except my middle sister noticed my recent cleaning frenzy and offered me money to do her place... as long as I can keep the current mood going, this can only be a good thing.

Spike is hysterical, but controlling it better than last night. My younger sister is here for the weekend, and she has a better Voice Of Authority than I do (she's a riding instructor...) which helps - Spike actually responds better to being told sharply to snap out of it than he does to being comforted. I'm a little too soft where he's concerned, though...

Max Puppy has spent the entire day trying to catch the invisible rabbit that usually hides under the rug in the living room - he chased it from the rug to his pillow to the airing cupboard and back again before he settled down. This purely imaginary creature has haunted Max for some time now, and I think it's time it had a name - can I have your suggestions, please?

^*THWAP!*

LOL...I'm the last person to ask about naming things. I've got 2 cats I've had for er... *cough* 6 months *cough* and I still haven't settled on names for them. *whistles innocently*

"Harvey"'s always good for a rabbit, if you're going for the obvious.

One of the cats is a typical AA type, but she doesn't wan to call our cat AA, we finally settled on:

Charlie the Cherub, nicknamed Donut
I still think his first name should be Donut though

or Yub Yub

Ahem..."Our Cat"?!? Get your own, I'm not sharing custody.

I'm thinking of changing the name again, by the way.

I chose Vesta's name by going through a dictionary of mythology, and discovering that Vesta was the Roman goddess of hearth and home. It seemed appropriate for a cat. (I'd thought of it earlier, just because I knew there was an asteroid named for her, and I'm an astronomy geek. :) )

Now, I don't know what kind of mythological creature would be appropriate for an invisible bunny, but I'd be willing to have a look through the same book. Mind you, Harvey does seem appropriate in this case. :)

(FWIW, when I lived in Waterloo, James Alan Gardner's bunnies were named Fang and Ribbie - the latter being the way RBI, the acronym for the baseball statistic "runs batted in" is pronounced. ;) )

I think I might go with Harvey - I was reluctant at first, because the original was six feet tall and the current incarnation is clearly a lot smaller, or he wouldn't fit so neatly under the rug... but it would be a nice tribute to me favourite Farscape character as well, and Max scrabbling at the rug does remind me irresistibly of a very confused John Crichton shooting at nothing...

Harvey it is, then...

I can't believe you didn't go with Donut

I'm a traditionalist at heart... besides, the Farscape connection clinched it. I'm still annoyed by Max not having a sci-fi name...
