Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Very nice!
I've used Honduras rosewood on a few instruments. Not as "showy" as Brazilian, but sounds every bit as good, and still somewhat available at semi-reasonable prices.
