That is the most relatable nickname collection I've seen for cats

We all know they have 1 name but 5 nicknames

This was discounting the truly lazy ones where I just add -boy, -girl, and -cat to the end which adds an infinite supply of stupid names. We took Gyaos to a different vet than our normal one once (for a paw he cut on some glass he shattered) and they acted like Mouse was the weirdest nickname in the world. We didn't return to them ever again.
