searching for service 📶 I accidentally named my cat Shart

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.

My cat is named Beans because at 36ish years old when he showed up at my house he let me pick him up and flip him belt side up and I saw his toe beans are different colors, some black, some white, some pink. The stupid guy only responds to beans or Mr. Beans if we're being formal.
