Pixie before he was neutered. Sometimes when I pet him he puts his butt in the air.

I told them I wanted a family picture and Patch said, "Talk to the tail".

And at the rescue after we had room for her.

Ah, yes, but you must consider the audience here. It makes me think of the Garfield comics where he says, “We’re bachelors, baby!”

We’re cat people, baby!

According to my English dictionary "hinny" is "a domestic equine hybrid that is the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey. It is similar to the more common mule, which is the product of a female horse and a male donkey."

Does hinny also mean a kitten's butt in the USA then? Learning a language never ends

I think perhaps he meant “hiney,” slang for hind end or buttocks.

Thank you Tobermorey. I have learnt 2 new words today: hinny and hiney. Had I known the word hiney I would have guessed.

Did you know that there are over 200,000 words in the free online dictionary but I was looking for one that’s only in the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary? Google "has told" me.

You have an exceptional grasp of English syntax, grammar, spelling, and punctuation, golondrina . It’s not any easy language to learn, even for native speakers! I taught 7th and 8th grade English many years ago, and many of my students struggled with the language’s inconsistencies. You’re a virtuoso!

 

[golondrina]

Thanks again Tobermorey. Perhaps learning English as a foreign language forced me to pay more attention than if it had been my mother tongue?
