I call Winnie Winn-Winn as a nick name. Well, I had the news on earlier and Winnie was sitting next to me. I forget what they were talking about but the guy said something was a "win-win-win stituation" and when they guy said win-win-win, Winnie turned her head around so fast and looked at the tv...like "what???"! I thought that was hilarious!!
She's one smart kitty!!

Oh yes they do for sure, when I call Dunkin and Miniman they almost knock each other down the stairs, and Dunkin will beep to tell you he's on his way

How cute! Mirah, at a puny 5 weeks, 3 days old, knows her name and responds to it, too! When I call her, and say in a nice voice, Mirah, she perks up and comes to me. But when she's being naughty, and trying to sneak behind the couch, I say in a low voice, ELMIRAH!!!!!, and she TAKES OFF!

Could you imagine if someone named their cat "And" or "The"? They'd be doing so much running around!!!

Princess and Patsy come when ever I call them. It doesn't matter if I say they name or their nickname. George, on the other hand, will only acknowledge your talking to him if it involves food or something he really wants.
