I used to have a cat named gin, but not named after the alcohol.

Her name was 銀 (gin, pronounced geen like green) which is silver in Japanese.

She passed this time last year, quite unexpectedly, after 16 years with me, but your post brought some happy memories :)

I hope your Gin had Shinpachi and Kagura to form the complete Yourozuya trio.

I miss Gintama... Time for a rewatch

I'm sorry to hear it has passed. I came to the comments to see how the name was pronounced. Did you also have one named Mugen per chance?
