Pizzicato - Pizzi for short

Pizzicato
I am a church musician, I heard from a friend that his church's minister of music called her cat "Magnificat". I loved it, but the name had been taken so instead I chose a musical term, "Pizzicato"
It is an appropriate name as one day Pizzi just showed up in my backyard and stayed around. After some days I took her in, had the vet see her and she has been with me well over two years. You see, she plucked at my (heart) strings and the musical term for plucking a string is Pizzicato. I don't play a stringed instrument rather I play an organ. Pizzi loves the music and likes to sit with me as I work at my Bach!
