I telephoned the veterinarian's office to ask when I should
take my three month old kitten in to be vaccinated for
rabies. After a few initial questions, the woman who
answered the telephone asked, "What is the kitten's name?"
"Demon", I replied.
"Demon? That's an odd name," she said.
"Maybe, but it's appropriate anyway."
I heard clicking of a computer keyboard, then she said, "Our
records show that you have cats named Gato [which is Spanish
for 'male cat'], Scamp, Stinky, and now you named one Demon.
Is that right?"
"Yes, it is."
"You really don't like cats, do you?"
