I choose the name TIPPER because it is my cats name and I love it.
Also, at the time I had started to post here I had just found out that my H was seeing a STRIPPER from one of the cities strip clubs, and the two words ryhmed and I guess it just popped into my mind.
I dont think of the stripper girl when I look at my cat though thank goodness. But sometimes I do feel like my cats name reminds me of coming here to post and how welcomed I felt by all the rest of the LBS here.
Also, My cat TIPPER is a real loner/individual(not a cuddely lap cat) and I really felt all alone for the first time ever at that point.
So I guess my screen name had more meaning than I ever really thought.
