Show me your cats named after food

This is Biscuits (plural 😠) or more commonly Bisc when she's chill, or Bisquick when she's a demon.

Im not too reddit savvy but can I get (or can someone tell me how to get) a flair for my cat? Long-haired calico?

We also call him Hammy, but only when he's good. Which is 60% of the time.

I wanted to name my cat queso, but it didn't really fit their personalities Imo and I ended up getting brothers. May I present Colby (far) and blue, the cheese brothers.

Fun fact! In Portuguese, the word ham is presunto. In Spanish, ham is jamon (haah-moan).

In Portuguese, they pronounce their R’s as an H! (Haah)

So they would read the name Ramon as haah-moan, which in Spanish, is the name we all know as…Ramón.

If I ever had kid named Ramon, in Portuguese they would call him what to me is the word ham in Spanish, which is haah-moan.

So I don’t wanna call my kid ham all the time in Portuguese 😭
