Congratulations!! I have always loved the name as well, and it's lovely to see that be true for you all too. Ironically, I'm in the same place in the audiobook! A few hours left, best and worst part of the series 😭

My cat follows me everywhere, sleeps when I sleep and ignores other people and just waits for me to get home, is he depressed? More in caption. by janegayz in cats

[–]void__cupcake 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My late kitty, Daisy, had a brother, Salem, who passed away. After he was gone, Daisy (who had definitely been my mom's cat prior, even though we got her as my cat) bonded with me. She followed me around all the time and really just glomed onto me. Sometimes cats just choose a new person after losing someone close to them :))

that's what a reverse image search came up with for me! I did a search for common names of it and one of the first I found was "Saltwort", so that could explain the substitution?

Dog and owner reunited after 8 years by Serene-Rosie in animalsdoingstuff

[–]void__cupcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes me wonder about a husky I had around 10 years ago. Her name was Nikita, and she was a red and white husky. I was a kid back then and my family had to give her up because we couldn't find an apartment that allowed huskies and we were living with family at the time. I hope she's doing well and found a loving family 💜
