Et tu, Porculus?

I've been idly planning to build a massive cat tree/kitty entertainment center. The rather victorian concept of a "cat aquarium" got into my head and amused me for a while; so I started looking up Latin language resources to see if I could come up with a cleverer name than "The Felinarium"

For some reason, I wasn't surprised to discover Cattus Petasatus. However, I was surprised to see Winnie Ille Pu (Semper Ludet), Grinchus and Harrius {not to mention Hari and Haris}.

Now all I can think of is Shakespeare's Julius Caesar as written by A.A. Milne.

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, Lend me your Honeyjars, said Poohlius. Yon Tigger has a Lean and Hungry Look...
