For months, the cat (a.k.a., the bane of Choppy’s existence) has lived without a name. But, it is official now – he has a name!
I give you, the cat formerly known as Little Kitty, now known as Schooner!

Hello Schooner! Stop annoying Choppy.
and a schooner in the better more sophisticated states of Australia (aka Queensland) is a measure of beer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schooner_(glass)

I told this to Paul, and it made him believe he had chosen the cat’s name absolutely correctly. Thank you for letting us know!

A-hem, I would argue the sophistication part there, but Gary did get in first with the info about the beer glass!

Schooner! Get off the shelf. And leave Choppy’s tail alone.
Love and licks,

Figures you’d name a cat after a bar – lol! 😀 Cats have no rules and of course, any place as cool as that for a perch is begging to be explored.

I don’t think anyone would expect anything else for our naming of a cat. I mean, the dog is named after a street in New Orleans, after all!

Choppy and Schooner – now if that isn’t a buddy comedy just waiting to be written, I don’t know what is :-).

I will be happy to write that one. Particularly if they make it into a movie. These animals need to start earning their keep around here!

But he’s cute so you’ve forgiven him I bet. Here, a schooner glass is for sherry which is probably not your tipple of choice!

I can’t say I’ve ever had sherry to drink (though I do use it to cook!). And I am learning much about schooner being a drinking vessel from the comments here. This is very heartening as to the fact that we chose the correct name.

Hi Sarah,
Schooner is an absolutely cute kitten. Btw, if you want her off that shelf, why not make Choppy wag her tail?! 😉
Have a great weekend,

Ha! This would probably be the most effective method of getting him down, come to think of it.
