A great wacky pet name is defined by its most delicious notes: Unique, richly flavored, often slightly sweet, sometimes dark, always concentrated … and high in antioxidants?
Maybe that’s why we’re so drawn to this domestic shorthair cat nominee with a name that pairs well with summer tomatoes, burrata and wackiness: Balsamic Vin.
Nationwide member and Balsamic Vin’s pet parent Kaitlyn L. describes how she cooked up such a unique pet name for her new kitty: “I had a long list of names that I love, and when I found Balsamic Vin, my best friend helped me pick out the best name. She suggested his nickname could be Vinny and I knew it was the perfect fit.”
Like his namesake ingredient, Vinny is perfectly sweet when needed most. And like a good vinaigrette, he has a good understanding of balance—while he’s usually quite active, he also knows how to slow down and get snuggly. Kaitlyn continues, “He is a rather rambunctious cat, but at the end of the day, if he is not dragging toys to me for us to play or leading me around the house, then he’s sitting next to me purring.”
When it came time to get protection for Vinny, Kaitlyn landed on another timeless favorite to help manage costs from everyday veterinary care: Nationwide pet insurance. “I choose Nationwide for the availability and low rate to cover my best little guy!”
