Mythology along with Shakespeare is a rich source for pet names. I have had an Iris & a Juno. Juno got her name because in mythology Juno was a nag & our Juno was a born nag. Sweet cat but with powerful vocal cords & constantly meowing “I want it MENOW, MENOW, MENOW.” Would like to add Demeter to this list my beloved earth mother cat.
