My Cactus

I have bought this cactus a month ago but I have not have the chance to put him in this blog. Introducing Togemaru, my lovely cactus. :D I picked her name based on her figure, she is thorny (Toge) and round (Maru). Well I am not sure if it is a he or a she (does it even have sex?) but she has flowers so possibly female.

Living overseas alone can be really boring and where I live does not permit any pet, so I buy this thing live with me. Don't think that I am so lonely or miserable, I just like to have a 'me' time sometimes and I like to tell someone of my problems without worrying to be leaked out. Togemaru is an awesome companion, she only drinks 2 spoonful of water once a week, does not pee, does not chew on furniture and quiet. She is a beauty too :)

About her name, because of her white thorns I was thinking of giving her name like Snow White or Esmeralda (what is the connection of white and Esmeralda?) but then when I was flipping through baby names, a Japanese name comes up, Togemaru. Well it sure is an unfitting name for your children but it is perfect for my cactus :)

Hi Togemaru, how are you today? XOXO
