Cassie is now Izzie

Today I made a surprizing discovery. My chubby little fluffball 'Cassie' aptly named after Mama Cass for her unladylike habit of wolfing down her food like a horse and then moving onto her siblings' food... is probably a male. She/he is so fluffy that it was never real obvious. Once I had determined months ago that she/he was a female, she was dubbed 'Cassie' as a most befitting name. I haven't really bothered checking since then.

Today, however; as she/he was getting a good brushing of her gorgeous fluffiness, I noticed what appeared to be fluffy little testies under his/her tail! It wasn't so obvious...somewhat UNDERSIZED in my opinion in relation to his/her overall size, but there nonetheless.

Oh Well, almost five months old and your whole identity changes. So now the question of a new name, since 'Cassie' is wholey inappropriate for a tomcat, I do believe! My first thought was to change it to something that sounds similar since she/he is already used to it. Cassius was rejected by DH, as were several others that crossed my mind. So something new altogether.

I think I will honor our little gender bender kitty with the name of Eddie Izzard...Izzie. Izzie a boy or Izzie a girl?

Here is a picture of our pretty little boy taken back in October.
