After nebulizing, Sakura was so, so active. I guess the Ventolin mist really helps her feel better.
Now that I’m finally not so frazzled (yesterday was a totally mad day for me), I realised that Sakura isn’t a tortoiseshell at all. Silly me… Why did I assume she’s a tortie just because Misty is one? Maybe it’s because Sakura’s face looks like a tortie face.
Anyway, she is not a tortie. She is a black-grey tabby like Robin!
And you know what I think now? Sakura could be male.
Triple facepalm…
I always give gender-neutral names to kittens and this is the very first time I did not because I just assumed Sakura was a tortie, hence 100% female.
Silly me.
Can Sakura be a male name? Haha… I checked and it is also a Japanese surname. Mr Sakura or Sakura-san.
I named her Sakura because it’s around now that the sakura blooms in Japan. Or, is it early April? Yes, round about then. Also, I thought she was a tortie and torties are often regarded as “untidy-looking”, so I wanted to give her a pretty name, after the cherry blossom.
I am quite sure now, that Sakura is male. Haha..
No wonder I felt a lump when I stimulated her/him for urination.
So, should I change his name?
I’m thinking of Hiro or Seiko.
