He has chosen a name! [View all]

Meet Oberon:


We were going through a list of celestial baby names and he really responded to it. It's the first name suggestion I've gotten meows for, and he later came to the bedroom when I called it. Had to double check the play real quick to make sure the ol' Fairy King wasn't a total a-hole like I remember. Conclusion: kind of an a-hole but not evil, so we are good.

Called Mom and she thought I said Obi-wan, lol! I was so focused on moons and Shakespeare plays that it didn't even occur to me. He does happen to be my favorite Star Wars character so that makes the name even better. And my little guy is definitely a Jedi with the feather on a stick.

More pics of Obie!






Going to do a close up series of how fabulous he looks on all the different rugs in the house.



Watching the attic door. I have to hide his feather on a stick toy in there because he is obsessed with it! Had it on top of a tall bookshelf and caught him trying to climb up to get it yesterday.
