Ubu & Uno

"U" Littermates

January 2012

Ubu, a maine coon mix and Uno, a ragdoll mix were part of the “U” litter at the Mid-Michigan Cat Rescue.  They are feisty, funny and love to play.  They acquired their names from a group of school children tasked with naming the entire litter with “U” names. 

All pets are unique.  One doesn’t replace another.  When one dies they pass our heart to the next pet that captures our affection.  First we had Shamu, then Mutu.  When we lost Mutu we were lonely and our home felt empty.  We were looking for one special cat.  We fell in love with two and brought them home. 

Maybe there’s something in a name, or a “U” name after all.
