New Kitten Named

Matthew Rinaudo aka Mizkif is one of the most popular streamers on the platform, amassing over 745k followers. During one of his recent streams, he entrusted his chat with the process of naming his new kitten. Earlier during the live broadcast, Mizkif’s partner Maya had surprised him with the kitten, who had wound up at the wildlife rehabilitation center she works at.

The kitten was sent to the facility after allegedly being refused shelter at a cat rescue because they thought it was a bobcat due to its short tail. Then after a few hours of streaming, Mizkif decided to pitch a variety of names to the chat before eventually putting the decision into the hands of the marbles. He has been hosting Marbles on Stream with his viewers and his chat chose five names that would be assigned to marbles to compete in the final match. In the final standings, the five marbles were Mizkif, Linus, Sour Apple, Mew, and Holo.

After a few, each marble on the game eliminated one by one until one remained to name the kitten, the winner was Linus. However, Maya wanted to name the cat Sour Apple. That resulted with Mizkif’s Twitch chat torn on whether the cat should stay named Linus or if it should be named Sour Apple instead. Because of this, Mizkif just decided to run the marble again. On the second run, Sour Apple won. It inspired Mizkif to go to a one-vs-one tiebreaker. During the one on one match, surprisingly, Linus came out on top.
