New Kitty!

Any name suggestions? We pick her up from the shelter after she gets spayed tomorrow :D She's part of a litter of 11 :eek: and it was seriously hard to only commit to one :p (ETA - we have two cats already.. I think adding more than one more would likely be unwise)

She's supposedly some sort of Maine Coon mix.. she's brown tabby w/ white (and I adore the spot on her nose) which makes her a wicked cute ball of fluff right now!

Better pics tomorrow.. you have to excuse the afterthought iphone shots :rolleyes:

Cutie!!!!

I let my son name his cat. This is her name: Meow Meow Furball. Most of the time we call her Pud (like pudding).

Get her a kickeroo! My cat goes made over it. http://www.amazon.com/KONG-Kickeroo-.../dp/B001JQLKUS

Should be available in most pet stores. They hug the top with their front paws and kick the bottom with the back paws.

Have fun!

In university we had a kitten called Pat the Cat. And we had a fern in the corner called Robert Plant...

I can see the Maine Coon in that ear fur.
i like human names but did once have a cat named Lappin' Gravy.

congrats on your new kitty. I learned a lesson about soliciting names from everyone. Some people get their egos involved and when you don't pick THEIR names they get hurt feelings.
We just got Dot, she's wonderful, but she could have had 25 names!

When I was a kid I had a cat named Fuzzy Pants.. and a dog named Puppy Wuppy, so I'm absolutely not above silly/stupid names :)

Our other two cats are Daisy and Heidy.. Heidy kept her shelter name because she was SO shy when we brought her home.. and he sort of earned the nickname "hidey-cat" really fast so we thought Heidy was funny (they misspelled it, not us) and kept it :p

Daisy, uh, well, she's white with black spots and reminds me of the old cow-print foil seals on teh tubs of Daisy Sour Cream.. so um, yeah :)

That's just weird but if you'll notice, no one's actually suggested a name yet!

Crash... Crash The Cat... CC for short.

I say this thinking we could be twins in ways. She has a spot under her left eye that reminds me of my crashed face, and black eye. And I'm multiple face colored too from road rash.

Now, I know that sounds on a downer note. But, not really...

I bet if you had a vid of her, she would do some "crashing" into stuff playing. And so what if she crashes... cats have nine lives, eh? Bet she would just keep on rockin.

I love kitties. The other half is allergic. Thus, we do not have one:(. Almost adopted from the pound before. Somehow the name the pound gave her was going to stick.

Hope she is a fun addition to your home.:)

Cutie pie. She is very cute. Innocent eyes and so pretty.
My partner says she looks like a sadie cat.

My favorite vet calls all of our cats "sweet pea".

Enjoy picking her name.

She's adorable! I'm horrible at picking names. I only picked Ruthie for my furball because my friend had passed away two days before I got her. I thought it'd be a nice memorial, but my Ruthie is a much bigger trouble-maker!:p

She looks like my Tortilla (sorta) and we got her at the same shelter! Tortilla was named Telly by the shelter but it wasn't something I liked calling her.

I thought she looked like Turtle ice cream but didn't like Turtle so I was going to call her Tortuga. My friend thought I said Tortilla and I thought "why not?" It really fits her quirky personality and she kinda looks like a flour tortilla. :p

Bring her home, she will tell you her name. My little dog Heidi told me. I thought Dixie, then Lovey but nope she said "MY NAME IS HEIDI!"

Here are some cats I have had:
Storm Trooper (my brother named)
Ink Spot (she was black)
Cricket (she had a kennel cold and chirped)
Spyder Monkey (she was climber from the start, we called her Spyder)
Sylvester
Crispin
Sammy (I was devastated when he was hit by a car)
Smokey
Sasha
My Pawpaw had DC (Damn Cat), he is buried with DC's ashes!
My Mammaw had Rat Cat (good hunter), Lefty (she was convinced he was left handed) and now Tuffy

My husband had a great cat for 19 years named Skitty. It was skittish so it was Skitty Kitty. I adored Skitty!

With ears like that, you should name her Ross Perot.

e.e. cummings...I'm going to name my plant Robert!

My folks used to have a cat named Bill. It was a stray that wandered into our yard, and stayed. My brother and folks always assumed the cat belonged to our neighbor, Billy (he didn't). So, it was "Bill's cat", and ultimately, Bill, when the neighbor moved away and the cat stayed. :rolleyes:

My rabbit's name is a mis-spelling. I named him NOAA, after my agency, and the vet wrote "Noah" so that's sort of stuck.

Your foundling is adorable, by the way. That 3rd picture is just too much!!

Cosmo. Cuz he cos' mo' trouble than he's worth.

We have had many Maine Coons...I'm not seeing any MC in your new kitty.
However, your new baby is a GORGEOUS kitty....I love how she looks! And such wonderful bat ears! Yes, that nose spot is super cute indeed. :p

Congratulations! And good for you adopting a needy kitty. :)
