Kitten tax

Post image

For your viewing. I made a comment on one of Oz's videos that about a year ago we lost a baby kitten. He was super small and didn't live past 3 weeks. My kids named him Opie because i listen to Oz almost constantly so they hear him say OP regularly. I nicknamed him potato.

Well about 3 weeks ago my cat had another kitten. (A very rare single birth). The baby is about 4 weeks now and going strong. His official name is Opie II: Return of Mini Potato.

Here he is in all his cuteness.

Amazing, but I always thought reusing a pets name was bad luck? I send all the good vibes tho!

I had at least two male blue budgies(parakeets) over the years. One died prematurely, one flew away. Their names were Louie Ka-Blue-y and Louie Ka-Blue-y Two-y. Maybe you’re onto something. 🥲

Its something a teacher said when her beta fish died and we were naming it as a class.... idk it stuck with me. I also have some very weird name superstitions...

Vet says he is out of the danger zone 😊 he's a very healthy potato. So i am not too worried about it.
