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!

  1. Aw, Kanukki must have been a wonderful kitty if you can still remember the sound of his purring.

    Sweet post.

  2. Hi Patti,


    Yes, 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!

  6. Beloved 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:

    kanukki

    1. (colloquial) A Canuck, Canadian.

    Lol, I wonder if that's why the nuns called him that, he was really Canadian? hehe xoxo

  7. Carletta,

    Yes, 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...
