I named my cats using names from Gunsmoke.
They are Miss Kitty and Festus.
This is because I really liked to watch Gunsmoke when i was growing up, i also watched The Rifle Man and Bonanza, but Gunsmoke was my favourite show at that time period.
I chose Miss Kitty as a sort of joke, since I call all cats kitty, at one point after just calling my female cat kitty, I decided that Miss Kitty would be clever and witty. I love to try to be witty.
Festus was originally just Miiss Kitty’s brother who came in my house uninvited with no name, but once i made up my mind to make Miss Kitty an inside cat, I also decided to have her brother that kept coming in with her since he was always around when she was.
So the male became Festus, since i wanted to name him after someone in Gunsmoke and I could only think of two male names in the show, Fetus and Marshall Dillon and I didn’t want to nmae him after the Marshal. For oine thing I think The Marshal and Miss Kitty had some sort of a thing going. So Festus he was now. :-}
If you like those three shows as well as science fiction, you might very well get a kick out of SpaceWesterns — http://www.spacewesterns.com/
