I am the author of this website, and I would be grateful for a small favour (not money!). In addition to my interest in teaching about medical equipment, I recently joined a creative writing course. As part of this course, I plan to write a funny online fictional story about how cats secretly run our world using hidden powers, etc.! It will, of course, be full of funny creative fiction, where cats, for example, have their own bureaucratic problems, infighting, and rivalry with dogs, etc.
As a first step, I need to choose a suitable website name for this fun story, and I’d really appreciate your help in choosing a good name. I have two names below, and I would be grateful if you could vote for the one you think is best and likely to share with friends. Your vote will really help me decide which name to use for this fun project. Thank you!
