Strega

Rate this Entry
I have finally figured out a way in which I can get my kitty pictures up. This is Strega after his busy day playing in the front yard.

    What a cutie! Is he a tabby? Tabbies are my favorite. But he's adorable whatever he is.

    I think he might be at least part tabby as I do not know much about the his parents. I think what probably happened is the owners of the mother cat did not have their cat spade and so she got pregnant by some neighborhood cat or stray.

    O he's a cutey. I assume you know that Strega means witch in Italian. It's also the name of an Italian liqueur that happens to be made from the part of Italy I'm originally from. Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strega_(liqueur).

    I'm sure that's why she named him Strega, lol. Good to see you around, Virgil.

    Haha yes, in my first post talking about getting the kitten I mentioned that the name is Witch in Italian and he was intentionally named for such.

    I missed that post but I had a feeling you knew. But the gender is wrong for "Strega." I just looked it up and a male witch in Italian is referred to as "stregone." Poor Strega will now have to have a feminine name.

    Haha yes, I was actually aware of that, but I have another male cat named Demeter, after the Greek goddess, I do not follow stereotypical gender roles too closely when naming my pets.
