Miss Kitty, Miss Kitty, Miss Kitty!

Not only does it not have initials, but there is not one standard
character in it. Here is a little reminder about what characters are
used in ascii-art.
(I'm surprised you haven't seen any mention of standard and non-standard
characters. You've been around in here for a while.)

And yes, that was quite sufficient as a disclaimer.

And just to keep this somewhat on-topic, here is another artist's
bicycle:

    ___         _
     \         / )
      =========
  ___/ \     / \___
 /  /\  \ ] /  /\  \
(  q-----( )  (  o  )
 \___/    [    \___/

(Does anyone know who did it?)
