Help me name my cat!
 
I just went and picked out a new kitten tonight, and I pick her up after she is litter trained and weaned,

She's mostly white, some gray, (she's part Himalyan) blue eyes, and long hair. I'm thinking of Princess, Sunshine, Abbie, and would be thrilled to get ideas from you guys.

bethany1982 09-16-2003 01:12 AM

She sounds pretty. Abbie sounds cute to me.

DG515 09-16-2003 01:14 AM

how about hannah? ;-)

MTSUGURL 09-16-2003 01:20 AM

I actually have a Raggedy Ann doll that a DG friend of mine refers to as Hannah constantly. I got it for Christmas last year, with 2 sets of raggedy ann coffee mugs. (She was my favorite doll when I was little.)

queequek 09-16-2003 01:40 AM

Snowy (like in Tintin)

Bianca/Bianco ("white" in Italian)

Keep us updated with whatever name you decided for it! ;)

Lil' Hannah 09-16-2003 09:47 AM

I have a friend who's cat's name is Rat. I think it's hilarious.

ilovemyglo 09-16-2003 09:52 AM

I personally find it cute when you name a female cat a male name- like Simon or George or Jerry.

FiReKraCkEr 09-16-2003 10:13 AM

Noelle, Claira, or Zoe, or even Chloe :) I also like Anna Belle

MereMere21 09-16-2003 10:26 AM

I like Chloe :)

I have a friend who has just got a kitten - she named her Ally like Ally Cat? ha well I thought it was funny

My cats are Turbo and Diesel :D but they are boys.......Bianca is cute too

aephi alum 09-16-2003 10:49 AM

Sounds like a very pretty cat! Can you post a pic?

Snowy, maybe?

I don't recommend this, but I know a guy who named his cat Fish. The only pets allowed in the dorms were fish, so when the house manager asked him if he had any pets, he could truthfully say "Only Fish." :p

33girl 09-16-2003 10:52 AM

she sounds like a movie star kitty...Marilyn, Brigitte, something along those lines. :)

DeltAlum 09-16-2003 11:09 AM

Our two cats -- brothers/littermates -- are named Benvolio and Mercutio. (Benny and Merc for short) Can you guess what our son was reading when we got them?

Daughter two just got a kitten and the call him Buster.

Daughter one's two cats are Jones (girl) and Pooh.

I like Alli -- you can call her Al for short.

Hehe. We have an Alley. As in "Alley Cat". It is a boy. :D

My other cat is Morgan. As in "Morgan Le Fay". I had a male roommate that didn't like cats. I thought "Morgan Le Fay" had a way with men, thought it would give her some luck. Might have worked. He finally came around and really loved the cat. ;)

mullet81 09-16-2003 12:24 PM

My cat is orange, brown and yellow so his name is Butters - from South Park. LOVE IT!!

Think of your favorite actresses name, or your favorite movie or tv charachter and name her that! She sounds pretty :)

AllisonDG 09-16-2003 12:34 PM

out if all your names, i like abbie the best!

CatStarESP4 09-16-2003 02:13 PM

How about Samantha, Tabitha, Sabrina, Zoe, Dahlia or Cleopatra. Those are nice names for female cat or queen cats.

MTSUGURL 09-16-2003 02:19 PM

My cat chose her name when I went to see her today. I sat with her asleep in front of me and called her Abbie, Noelle, and Princess Bianca. She opened her eyes and meowed at the last one. So my cat's name is Princess Bianca. I got her the cutest little pink cat bed that says Princess on it! (of course, she could've just been telling me to shut up...)

Thanks queequek! You have the winning name!

LSUquadkid 09-16-2003 06:02 PM

Name her Diamond..If she's white then that's a cute name for her

kappaloo 09-16-2003 06:04 PM

I love that name MTSUGURL! :)

BTW - I was in my chapters X pledge class too! :)

The Grapist 09-16-2003 06:09 PM

Mimino.

gphiangel624 09-16-2003 06:39 PM

Well, I'm late, but I thought I'd give my $0.02...

I like Princess Bianca- that's cute and it sounds fitting...

My cat is named Mischief (just because... don't know why), but she responds to Fatty, Tubby, etc... she's fat, can you guess? My best friend thought I told her the name was Italics... where she got that, I have no clue, but the next cat I have will be named Italics.

My ex has the best name for his cat... we couldn't think of a name when we got her (she's the most gorgeous cat ever), so jokingly, I said Boo Boo Kitty F*ck (for those of you who've seen Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, you'll get it), and it stuck. So now she's Boo for short

That's awesome! I've always wanted to have cats named Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

My (SIX) cats are named: Kierkegaard, Valkyrie, Lilly, Xochitl, Jupiter and Peep.

LuaBlanca 09-16-2003 09:35 PM

Officially, my cat's name is Tigger II. He'll also answer to 'Putz', 'Numbnuts', 'Sh*t-for-Brains', 'Piglet', 'Hawg', 'Lazy-a**' among other terms of endearment... but my mother and I love him too -- he knows what side the bread is buttered on 'cause we spoil him to death! :)

...or trees...trees are bad too.

My cat's name is George: for two reasons:

1. Curious George the monkey. That darn cat is into everything.

2. from the bugs bunny cartoons - remember the snowman guy who would pick up marvin the martian and try to make him a pet, saying "I will love him and hug him and squeeze him and call him George." I adopted the cat from my summer roommate, who was a foster mom for the county's animal league. she had several kittens who were all rescue animals and we taught them to be nice cuddly pets - i.e., "love them and hug them and squeeze them". stray cats aren't naturally used to people - you have to get them used to you. then they are nice.

Also, i just don't like calling pets things like "fluffy" or "mittens," unless it's ironic. (I had a friend with a HUGE rottweiler named Fluffy. Now that was funny.) George is a good solid name.

Lately though, i've been calling him You Little F***er!!!!!

He is eating lots of important wires - chewed up two cell phone chargers (thankfully for my old phone, just got a new plan and phone) this week.

He's also sending my alarm clock radio to a slow painful death - you know the weird little wire that's supposed to be an antenna? He bites off a section at a time, little 1"-2" pieces and leaves them around the apt. Now there is only a sad little 3 inch stubby piece left. I can only get one station. I need to go find an alarm w/ a real antenna.

He tried to eat the wire on my real stereo once but i screamed bloody heck for about 5 minutes straight. He hid under the bed for 1/2 hour. Now he's afraid of my radio - and that's a good thing.

I feed him plenty - is there some kind of vitamin in the wires of my electronic equipment that he's missing????? Does anyone else have this problem???

Pets are just plain weird (just like humans are ;)) and therefore they often exhibit some weird habits. Also, cats simply like to knaw and chew on things. My old cat is named Pepper (a tabby-tortoise mix who was quite a character). We had all sorts of pet names (nicknames) for her: Peppermint Patty, Stinky, Peppi, Dr. Pepper, Mama Bear, etc. She used to like Starburst candy...:confused:. She would also chew on socks and get attached to it and growl if you tried to take it from her (this is when she was a baby). She once bit clean through a pair of headphones that was stuck inside my purse, and proceeded to put the headphones back in my purse after she did it (I kid you not)...But she was so cute that you couldn't stay mad at her for long. Awe, I miss her terribly (she passed away in June :()...

I have two other cats now--Pinky (a boy; he was my Grandma's cat and she named him that b/c of his cute little pink nose), and a boy kitten named Paddington (like Paddington Bear--he looks just like a little teddy bear w/ his fur and big eyes)...We call Pinky Pinkster, Papa Bear, Pink Panther, etc. and we just got Paddington and named him yesterday. So far we call him by his name, Lil' One (I call him that), Little Bear, etc.

I love my babies. :)

MoonStar17 09-19-2003 03:30 AM

OHHHHHH Im late for this thread but...

when i got my kitty she was a really lil fur ball..i fed her and weaned her, found her in a box too small to be away from her mommy..

MISSY

she SOOOOOOOOOOOO lives up to it too...she is super stuck up like she knows she is awesome..LOL she OWNS my moms house...i wanted to take her to the dorms but she has the good life at my moms house

:)

I like Princess Bianca..very CUTE! :) good luck with your new kitty

Jill1228 09-19-2003 04:23 AM

I love the name Princess Bianca! :D

I have Thelma: AKA Thelmy, Stinky Binky, BOFB (Big Ol' Fur Ball), Lover-Lover

and

Louise (who goes by Lulu): AKA Mommy's Baby Binky Boo, Binky Badass, Hellion

They gotta be hell cats if they are named Thelma and Louise!

AOIIsilver 09-20-2003 09:04 AM

cats chewing on wires
 
We have had our cat for 12 years, and he is really hysterical.

He chews on wires, specifically, the cable wire and the computer wires, when we are not paying enough attention to him, ie. momentarily speaking to someone else.

Crystal,
I love the princess idea. Now you can find all sorts of accessories for your kitten!

I like Princess, too. Or Princess Snow.

I was always fascinated by the Sidney Sheldon book where the black cat was named Snowball and the white cat was named Midnight!
