Oh, and had to add this even tho' it gives away Mewsette's voice. The style might give away the animator too.

Hee hee, Churchy, you were posting at the same time as me.
Bonus question, only half of which is on Wikipedia:
What was the full name (first and last) of the cat to whom Mewsette was being sent as a mail order bride?

ALL my pets are rescued from shelters, given proper vet care, & sincerely loved. I am blessed with far more love than I give them. Rescues never stop giving thankful love back. :) Weird names for my pets? Not really - unless some think naming every pet after an old Spanish ancestor is a bit over the top. ;) Criteria - the Ca. Spanish ancestor must have achieved great fame. One of my American Cockers is named after a two time pre statehood Ca. Gov. This is because of his colors. Most think he's named after off ramps or L A streets. :D:

I have a Miniature Schnauzer named Oki which is only really silly because it is a Japanese name.

When I was a baby my mom had Cinderpuff, and Twinkie. Cinderpuff passed away and then when I was five my parents and I heard a neighbor's dog barking at something, which turned out to be Cookie. Cookie and Twinkie are both long gone now as well...
Cinderpuff was black, Twinkie was gray and white and Cookie was gray all over.
I named Cookie Cookie, because cookies are also a dessert or a snack like Twinkies are.

he thought my cat was a squeeky toy, and ate 3 of my quail's babys.

On my fourth birthday, my parents surprised me and my brothers with a dog, an energetic terrier/dachshund mix. Since it was my birthday, I was told to pick out his name. So, with all the brain power a 4-year-old can muster, I named him... Apple! Why? Because I was eating Apple Jacks that morning.
Cooler heads prevailed, and my pick was overruled (about which I am still bitter 40 years later ;) ), and the dog was named Samson.
Turns out I was just years ahead of Gwyneth Paltrow.

Must be a german shepherd thing. They had one at the barn where I kept my old horse, along with three other dogs and seven or eight cats. The shepherd was sometimes out on a long chain in the backyard. One of the cats, Babycakes, would come within his reach, and he'd pick her up, chew her, and fling her away. Stupid cat would come right back to him. Chew, fling, repeat. Some days she was soaked with his slobber.
