My cats:
Zappa (1984-2000)
Zorba (2000-2012; died from hyperthyroidism)
Zixten (2013 - present)My dad's cats when he grew up:
Grossy (taken from the Swedish word for grey, so it has nothing to do with the word "gross")
Sessan ("little princess")
Miriam Makeba (black)
Tulo (a white throat lozenge; he was totally black so the name was a joke)
Burken ("tin", because he was so big)
Lådan ("box", because he once got a box in his head)
Stumpen ("stump; stub"; he was born without a tail)
Tussan, Tusse and Tuss (all names mean something like "wad; tuft of hair")
Pricken ("spot"; he had a spot on his nose, so no, it's not a four-letter word)My grandma's and grandpa's (my mum's parents) cats:
Jimi
Ante
PrimusDoes the sea exist
Because of our longing?
