Murphy Muffin's Mom wrote about Murphy Muffin: Here is our newest member of Murphy Muffins Mom's kitties, Murphy Muffin! How did Murphy Muffin get his name? Well at first he was already named by the original owners ( for 12 weeks) and it was ariel or some other consternation ?? thus why we didn't keep the name... so we chose FERBIE but after about a week with him, we decided he was no ferbie... so we went with something that rhymed with Muffin since he was a ragmuffun - Murpy it was and that one stuck maybe why he is alittle confused at times, but REGAL would have been his name has he been American Indian, based on his behaviour! He only gives love on his terms as you might imagine. We call Murpy our Murphy Muffin Baby. Murphy looks so big because of his gorgeous fur. Murphy is a ragmuffin - part ragdoll/part persian... a shy combination. He is very timid and shy and very afraid of everything... he hides between my legs alot! lol, not that I mind that one.... it is apparently typical of that breed.... I have always had short haired domestics before Murphy and Stanley so I am not as knowledgable about the different breeds just lucky to have these too darlings. Murphy Muffin is more independent but still stays in whatever room my hubby and I are at any given time. Congratulations Murphy Muffin!!!
