My two daughters shared a cat named Skydiver. My daughters were 8 years old and ten years old. They named the Mom cat Skydiver. Skydiver delivered six kittens. One of the kittens was born all black. They named this kitten Obsidian. He had orange eyes. He was soft, shiny, and fluffy. Skydiver was their name chosen for the Mom cat. Obsidian was also their choice for the kitten to be named. He grew up to be a gorgeous cat. Both names sound like someone influenced them to these names. Nope.
