Half-pint

Then there's the old joke about the minister who finally makes it out to visit an old lady. She feeds him supper wich he reluctntly eats as the place is none too tidy. When he offers to stay and help with the dishes she says, no that they are nothing that a little soap and water can't take care of. Just as he drives off, he hears her holler from the front step, "Soap! Water!" At which a couple of dogs come running up, eager to help out with said dishes!

My sister had a cat who was wicked about catching moles, even when she was little, so she got named "Mole Kitty" which got shortened to "Mo'kitty."
