There wasn’t a flair for All of the Above, so “Meals!” Is the next best one. Attached is picture of the map of kitties that live at this cafe about 30 minutes outside of Dalat, Vietnam. Every single name is either of a protein, a vegetable, a fruit, a sauce or a spice!

I mentioned in a previous post here that it’s common for Vietnamese kids to have food-based nicknames. Here’s a huge example!! 😸😸😸

For ease, you can use Google Translate’s photo feature and everything can get translated at once.

I was told to post about Carrot the Calico here! She’s mostly called “Cà Rốt” (pronounced cahh-roht), which is Vietnamese for Carrot! It’s common for kids in Vietnam to be given a food-related nickname.

Ca Rốt is a tortoiseshell tabby calico, so she has orange-ish brindled/heathered fur throughout. That is why she got this name! 🧡🥕🧡🥕🧡
