I thought it would be fun to share how our cats got their names...

Bentley--my husband and son are very into cars...and appropos of his namesake our Bentley is beautiful and was expensive...also my husband used to like watching MTV Cribs where the celebs show off their homes and exotic cars...so he gets to say to his friends when they come over..."and here is my Bentley"...

Aston--full name Aston Martin--following in the car theme, more specifically the high end British car theme...Funny story...we took my in-laws to the car show last year when my son brought my mother in-law over to the Aston Martins and told her that was my favorite car...then she looked at me and said..."I thought Aston Martin was just a cat!"

Alastair--we ran out of British car names that sounded like cool cat names...so I just ran with a regular British name I always liked...

Finster--full name Finster Baby--from Bugs Bunny...the character who looks like a baby but is an escaped convict...Bugs thinks he's cute and innocent but he is trouble...the minute the breeder send me this pic of my cat...I knew the name fit...and he has lived up to it ever since...
