Clawing Kitty Names From Types of Swords and Knives
Domestic cats manage to keep their claws razor sharp, partly because of their semi-retractable nature. For instance, although cat’s claws don’t retract all of the way into their sheaths, they do retract enough to keep them from touching the ground, while they are walking around. The talons only emerge when their murderous weapons are required. Unsurprisingly, the lack of wear and constant honing of they rapier like claws makes them one of the top killers, of their size, in the animal kingdom.
Given the opportunity, felines are pleased to serve their humans a delicious breakfast of fresh mouse, chipmunk or baby rabbit. Consistent with the habits of every good chef, cats keep their implements of destruction carefully sheathed, when not in use. For maximum effect, they regularly sharpen their slicing devices. Chefs and mousers equally evidencing respect for the tools of their trade.
These cute kitty monikers honor the sharp talons of the domestic cat. Additionally, many of the finest knives come from Japan, duly making them darling names for any of the oriental breeds such as the Siamese, Burmese, Oriental Short Hair, Tonkinese or Balinese. The Japanese also prize the markings of the calico cat, for their similarity to the celebrated koi fish. Consider one of these unique, slasher mouser names for your furniture slayer.
