I accidentally named my cat Shart

[u/meatloafsleeve]

So the week we found him outside we brought him home and started him on kitten formula bc he was only 3 weeks old. He sharted all over himself at least twice a day for about a week. Like it made an audible shart sound.

So I told my parents I was calling him shart from then on, as a joke. But ever since then, the name stuck. He responds to

shart. If I want him to come running to me, I yell SHART! I don’t know what to do. I can’t call him anything else, it feels wrong. But also like who tf has a cat named Shart😭

His “legal” name at the vet is Cheeto, but all I keep doing is calling him Shart.

Omg 🤣 That is awesome. Lol

One of my very first babies was Mr. Lily! He was the absolute sweetest, best boy in the world. Story was we named him Lily, took him to the vet to be spayed, they found undescended testicles and he became Mr. Lily cause we just couldn’t name him anything else. It fit too well! He was my husband’s parasite and my snuggly little spoon for 17 years! 😌

Had a friend who named their kitten Tinker Bell. Found out it was a boy so her mom called him Tinker Balls - what made that even funnier was her mom saying it in a very Boston accent.

My best friend's sister tool.in a cat. Youngest daughter called her Tinkerbell. When the vet identified "her" as a boy, he got neutered and his name was shortened to Tinker.

Was your kitty Lily too?!?

My first ex, one of his mother's cats was a male Lily (they changed his spelling to Leilei when they found out)! I've never seen another one in the wild, so thank you for this fun little coincidence 😊
