This is going way back to the early 70's ( Miami,Fl ) and remembering a very sweet cat who I loved a lot! His name was 'Kanukki !'
We got him from a couple of Nuns who had to give him up because they were moving . They had named him and if I ever knew the meaning or origin of his name I have long since forgotten!
(Does anyone know this name?)
'Nukki' had some health problems and we knew he'd not be with us long...but he was a joy to have in our lives for awhile! He was so very beautiful...and I still remember the sound of his purring and his loving nature!

Aw, Kanukki must have been a wonderful kitty if you can still remember the sound of his purring.
ReplyDeleteSweet post.
Hi Patti,
ReplyDeleteYes, he was very special...His purr would begin at our slightest touch :)- like pushing a button to turn something on! :)
Hope you're having a fine spring day!

Some animals are so sweet we remember them forever. Nukki looks precious!
ReplyDeleteI do think each pet we have leaves a special spot in our hearts and memories!
ReplyDeleteI did not know this Neil Young song until my visit here yesterday. I just love it Junie - thanks for introducing me. :)
I love this sepia post!
ReplyDeleteBeloved pets from our past will never be forgotten:-) "Kanukki" is such a beautiful name and fitting for such a lovely kitty. I found this about the name:

1. (colloquial) A Canuck, Canadian.
Lol, I wonder if that's why the nuns called him that, he was really Canadian? hehe xoxo
Carletta,
ReplyDeleteYes, you're right about the animals- at least it's that way with me. Each had a special place in my heart-and I still remember dogs or cats I had all through my life-and still feel the loss of them!
So glad you've enjoyed the Neil Young song. It's a beautiful one! I like a lot of his music...
Thanks to all for your comments! I'll visit you soon.
