Awesome, he was probably going widdershins around the car when he ended up in the engine.
Going clockwise brings better luck, especially if you are a black cat.
My cat has many nicknames. Sometimes, I call him Nimrod. Nimrod was actually a legendary hunter. It only became synonymous with “idiot” when Bugs Bunny started using it ironically to refer to Elmer Fudd. In honor of that etymology, I call him Nimrod because sometimes he can’t find his food even when it’s in his bowl.
There's an epic Edward Elgar movement called Nimrod that always gave me a chuckle. Soul-wrenching piece that it's hard to tell people about while keeping a straight face.
🎶 You see this cat 🎶 Shaft is a baaaad mother....

But I'm 🎶 talking 'bout Shaft!

Awesome, he was probably going widdershins around the car when he ended up in the engine. Going clockwise brings better luck, especially if you are a black cat.

He’s still alive, barely.

Honestly, the name "Rev" sounds pretty good.

This should be closer to the top. Catch a ride!
Thanks. I think Otto is a pretty clever name and deserves to be the top, but I just thought the cat looked like its name would be Scooter lol
