Would it be appropriate to rename my kitten...
"Piss and Vinegar?" As in, that's what she's full of?

I've never had a kitten before Salem. She is perfectly mischievous. :evilgrin:

2. Absolutely not.
When you call this lovely cat this vulgar name, you damage the cat's tiny little psyche. Kitty will act out for twelve to twenty years, fulfilling your prophecy. Kitty will be universally regarded as a "bad" cat, when we all know there ARE NO BAD CATS.

Calling Kitty something like "Piss and Vinegar" would be akin to your Mama and Papa calling you "Slut Whore Bitch Tart." It may be descriptive, but it's simply not done.

4. Nothing to keep you from using P&V as a nickname...
Our 5 cats each have 15-20+ nicknames, all of which they know and respond to. It's weird. The two brothers even know which is Doctor Paw and Doctor Claw.

Mischief *is* printed in their DNA, though, isn't it? :evilgrin:
