And just what pray tell is umms?  UmmS is short for UmmSqueaky, which in turn is a kunya.  A kunya is an arabic nickname. Umm = mother of, and the male form is Abu, father of.  While traditionally you are Umm/Abu your first born, there is also a tradition of being the mother/father of something you love dearly.  As Squeaky is my O(riginal) C(at) that I love an insane amount, I am UmmS.  Thanks for reading all the way to the bottom of this page.
