OMGoodness! No wonder you had to bring him home! So darn, stinking, cute!

(My 15yo is doing victory dance...)

Kawaii~!

(15yo says that means 'OMG, that's SOOO cute...' in Japanese....)

I'm hoping your 15yo isn't playing a joke and Kenji doesn't actually mean "rat" or "roadkill" or something.

From 15yo... to you... proof coming...

Just on a side note about Japanese names... they are composed of symbols with special meanings...

The name "Kenji" consists of two symbols, "ken" and "ji".

However, given the fact that the Japanese language consists of thousands upon thousands of these symbols...

...There is room for alternate spellings of the names, such as the name "Kimberly" and "Kymberli"...

But keep in mind that each symbol in the Japanese language has its own special meaning.

So even though the name might sound the same, the fact the symbols are different make it so that there are alternate meanings.

...What I'm saying is that even though the name "Kenji" on the aforementioned site may be "study" and "two...

...Given the fact that Japanese names can be composed of radically different similar-sounding symbols, very different meanings develop.

[And now that I have returned from putting 8yo to bed, I review the plurks made 'in my name' and know that I'd better log out of plurk while

away from computer, from now on....]

Thank you 15yo! Though it Kenji had meant "my owner is an idiot" I would probably have kept the name.

how adorable!

Soooooo cute!

That looks like my tabitha!!! She was my parents first child. Hee hee hee. I miss that cat.
