No puns were intended since Tora is a female kitty.
We snagged this pickle toy, possibly from Pet Smart, possibly from we forget, and introduced it to Tora. She played with it just a little bit, and hasn't really touched it since. Picky cat is picky, but not pickle-y .... 🙃
We're responsible parents, so we also made sure Tora got some variety in her diet with some carrot time as well • Four Month Old Norwegi... .

Tora (Toe Ra/Taura), which means Tiger (虎) in Japanese, is a purebred black amber tabby Norwegian Forest Cat. Some of her common nicknames, all in Mandarin Chinese, are:
TuoXie (拖鞋) [Slipper]
ChouMao (臭貓) [Stinky Cat]
YaYa (鴨鴨) [Duck - she has quack-like meows at times]
MaoMao (貓貓) [Simply for Cat]
MaoRou (貓肉) [Cat Meat - no we don't eat cat, but she's a little meatball]
FengMao (瘋貓) [Crazy Cat]
GouDongXi (狗东西) [Literally "Dog Something", but basically "%(*@!* thing" when misbehaving]
GouMao (狗猫) [Literally "Dog Cat"; see above]
Other names include, but are not limited to: Heavy Meowchine Gun, Hey Google, and RaRa.
Sometimes we also just call her Or/OrOr, because she makes that sound 😬. We also call her Lawn Mower whenever she starts purring...
Her dad still thinks she looks more like a lion than a tiger, but that's up for debate. She was born on 10/13/23 and has been with us since 1/19/24. Please subscribe if you wish to continue seeing her grow - in age, size, and naughtiness :)
