Pants
The Humane Society named her Honeysuckle
I kept that as her middle name
cats don't need middle names
so that might not make sense
but it doesn't have to
I renamed her Annabelle
which often morphs to Bell Bell
sometimes she's just Kitten
even though she's 13
I like calling her Kitten
it may not make sense
but it doesn't have to
my strangest nickname for her
is Pants
if you must know
Its short for Kittenpants
but even I
have enough dignity
to not call her that
I'm sure you'll agree
that makes sense
So, yes
I sometimes call her Pants
when I come home from work
she walks toward me
I dump everything on the floor
and say some variation of the following:
"Pants!"
"You're my pants!"
"You have pants!"
"You wear pants!"
