What a lucky baby!! I can't go to the animal shelters because I always want to bring someone home with me, but we can only have two at a time (my hubby is slightly allergic but he knows how much I love them)! (He loves our kitties, too.)
It's funny...Originally Cassiopeia was her name, but no one knew what I was talking about! An astonomy theme was my goal! There was Orion, Comet and Leo, three brothers someone dumped out here by us. (Sadly, all disappeared before the year was out.) Then Perseus was found, yowling in a corn field. All my girls are named after Greek goddesses, actually. So, you're right...her name really is Cassiopeia....and I'm a dork!


Oh, and I had to beg, plead and borrow to bring Luna home, btw!

I REALLY LIKE the name Luna, and that you included Eve, too. Welcome to TCS, Luna Eve. You have no idea what a great home you have joined!

Congrats on your new baby. She is very beautiful!

Well, Wesley...Isis was actually my choice when I looked at her, but I like the meaning behind Luna much better. Isis was the goddess of the rainbow, or the messenger goddess. I'm more of a moon person, so Luna is perfect!

Oh fine!!!
Well, nefertiti, the supposed earthly ebodiment of Isis, was considered the most beautiful woman in the world. So since that kitty is pretty, i thought it was a good name.

Luna Eve (beautiful name) is a gorgeous little girl.
Congratulations! She reminds me a lot of my Katie (full name Kathleen Mary).

congratulations on your new baby! she's so lovely! i see you've already decided on Luna [from your beautiful new sig!]. i actually almost adopted 2 cats over the holidays, too, but both had already be adopted when i called/emailed about them. i don't think i'm supposed to have another, yet.
