Stygian Saturdays are back!It's been so long since I've posted. Since it has been so long, I shall re-introduce myself. My name is Stygia, and I am a 2 and a half year old House Panther. Aside from this blog, I share another one with my tabby step-sister Abby, called
T'Abby Normal & the Stygian Panther.
People often ask how I got the name Stygia. It wasn't the name I had when they adopted me from the SPCA last August, but I like it. I never responded to my former name (Bear), but my new people talk to me a lot, and so I do respond to my new, better name. Here's something from the dictionary:
Styg⋅i⋅an
–adjective | 1. | of or pertaining to the river Styx or to Hades. |
Also, styg⋅i⋅an (for defs. 2, 3).
Origin: 1560–70; Stygi(
us) Stýgios (
Styg-, s. of
Stýx Styx +
-ios adj. suffix) +
-an 
Well, I'm not a gloomy girl, but I am very dark. In the picture you see of me above, I am actually smiling -- when I am really happy, my fangs peep out!
