This Alaska cat is hoping to win a national contest!
Zoe McHenry, owner of a cat named Homeboy Thumbs, says he has no idea fame is coming his way, so he’s pretty chill right now. Each year, Nationwide’s pet insurance team celebrates some of the craziest names among its insured pets, and Homeboy Thumbs was among the "Wacky Pet Names" finalists that were announced recently.
Naming such a unique cat took time, Zoe recalls. “I started to refer to him as ‘Homeboy’ and ‘Thumbs,’ and I couldn’t pick between them — so I decided to combine the two.” The name was the perfect fit for this fantastically unique feline. “My cat acts like he has street cred, and it’s because he legitimately does. I have no idea how long he was out on the street for,” she says.
