Lady Ba was adopted from the Roice Hurst Humane Society in spring 2004. At that time, her name was called Sheba.
Her new mom thought this was a fine name, but you have to admit, there are many other kitties named Sheba, but not so many quite as glorious as our Lady!
The Lady's new mother also was a big fan of Mahatma Gandhi of India, and studied his life and times. Hence we learned that Mr. Gandhi's wife was named Kasturba. He called her Ba for short.
The Lady Kasturba must have been very saintly to deal with a saint like Gandhi for a husband. Though he had some great philosophical ideas, we suspect that it must have made for a very interesting, shall we say, family life.
The White Feline Sheba was also very saintly with us when we were less than perfect and working out our ideas in our own lives. Her mom began calling her Ba after Gandhi's wife, and surely the great white Lady is a saint at least, and perhaps more, for we suspect she is an incarnation of the Great Goddess herself.
The Lady Ba also had many other names which we have delineated elsewhere. Nowadays she is known as the Celestial Lady Ba, as she gazes down upon her family from a celestial abode.
