Names!

When Catseye first came to the mansion Catseye did not like human names because human names confused Catseye because they did not mean anything so Catseye named people what they look like or what they do but now Catseye understands that naming people after what they look like or do is like telling them that they are a thing and that it is mean and Catseye does not want to be mean to people at the BigHouse or Catseye's other friends in the BusyTown so Catseye is going to ask what people want Catseye to call them if they like to be called by their real names to be nice or if they like their special name Catseye gave them.

Also Catseye learned that peoples names are veryveryspecial to people sometimes because of the people who named them what they are named but Catseye does not know why people have their names and Catseye wants to understand if people want to tell Catseye why they have their special names Catseye would like to read, nyah!

You call me what you feel most comfortable calling me, Cats. And yeah, sometimes people don't like the nicknames I give them. If they're a friend, I stop when they ask. If they're not, I have to admit I'll keep using the name to take the piss out of them.

'Blossom' was the name Rack used for me when I was a kid to make me think I was weak and breakable. Like I said, names have power. I think you're finding that out now, that sometimes the names you use for other people do more than you meant?

Yes Catseye understands now about names being powerful and are more special than Catseye meant! Catseye thinks it was extramean to make Amanda think she was weak because Amanda is not weak or breakable! Pokeable, maybe, but not breakable.

Rack was that kind of person. Not very nice at all. All that's over and done with now.
