Chimi & Churri

by Juan Cámera
(Buenos Aires, Argentina)

I have two cats. They are from the same litter. One female and one male. They are inseparable.

The male is called Chimi and the female is called Churri. Their names come from the popular barbecue sauce used in Argentina (my country) called chimichurri.

It's fun when people know their names and can relate it with the sauce!


Reply from Liz (editor): I think these are lovely names for kittens and cats! Also very original idea using the name of the sauce to name both of them!

The sauces in the UK where I live aren't nearly as good for cat names and kitten names - the most popular sauce is probably Heinz Tomato Ketchup. Whilst Heinz could make a pretty good cat name, Tomato and Ketchup wouldn't be so good!!!

Thank you for sharing your story.
