Taboo Shivery Robinson


"ring, ring......."

Holly: Hello


Bella: Hello Sister Robinson I have a question for you and you don't have to say yes, but I really, really, really want you to okay.

Holly: Okay, what's your question?

Bella: They have free kittens at Wal-Mart, can I pleeeeeease get you one?

That's how we got Taboo Shivery Robinson. The kids could hardly wait for him to get here. We went online and went through 2000 names for cats. The kids thought Fuzzbutt was the funniest name and decided to tell Dad that's what they picked, he didn't fall for it. Alina really wanted to name him Cheeto, could it possibly be because that is her favorite treat?!?! Greta wanted to name him Shivery because he was shaking so much when we first got him. Austin wanted to name him Suki. Then Bella came back over and said she thought we should name him Taboo, the kids loved it and we figured since Bella picked out our kitty we would name him that. We call him Tabs for short. His middle name is Shivery so Greta wouldn't have a meltdown.

He's a great cat, loves the kids and follows them everywhere, he never wants to be alone. Greta is already worried about Tinkerbell not liking Taboo when we all die and go to Heaven. She's decided that if Tinkerbell is mean to Tabs then he'll have to go in the backyard. Austin doesn't think there are backyards in Heaven, Greta isn't happy about that, I'm sure she'll figure it out.

The thought processes going on with your kids...crazy! :0) It's hilarious though. Tell Austin that if heaven is supposed to be as awesome as I hear...there will definitely be backyards. :0)

Sorry it took so long to check this out. This blog is a great one! I love how you layed it out in conversation mode. Taboo huh? Do the kids even know what that word means? if not, tell them aunt shan needs for them to look it up and write me about what the name means in the next letter. TABOO SHIVERY ROBINSON is soo cute. Tell the kids I can't wait to meet them and maybe when we all get to heaven we can get the 2 cats together and see which one would win in a cat fight! YA!
