Why is (s)he named stinkyyyy? That’s not very nice

What's in a name? A cat by any other name would smell as stinky.

He doesn't mind. He was originally "Slinki", (and still is at the vet's - who told us he was a girl), but he kept farting, so it made sense to change his informal name. He's also known as "Binky", "Bonky", "Stonky", or even "Binky Bonky Boo", and he really doesn't care as long as you scritch him under the chin.
