To Mimi(s) all over the world

In "Kafka on the shore" an encounter between "Nakata"- one of the two main protagonists - and an intelligent Siamese cat called "Mimi", or as she introduces herself "Sì, mi chiamano Mimi" will change the life course of the former; thus, the book's plot 
Whether you have read the book or not, whether you have a cat or not, whether you know someone called Mimi or not, I think you should listen to this song from "La Bohème" opera at least once in your life.
Just try it. At least once. Tonight, shut the doors, the windows, close the curtains, turn off the lights and play it!

 
 
Never again will the name Mimi sound the same

I baptise you Beethoven

Yesterday, while listening to Beethoven's Archduke trio music inspired by Kafka on the shore, this cat (which never comes to our floor) came in, sat next to me and fell asleep as fast as 123
This is 1

This is 2

This is 3

Thus let it be known by all, that starting from today, this cat which can be seen at the American University of Beirut near the Kerr I and II dorms is officially named Beethoven.
