    New Kitty!

    Any name suggestions? We pick her up from the shelter after she gets spayed tomorrow She's part of a litter of 11 and it was seriously hard to only commit to one (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

    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!

    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!

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

    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

    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

    I think she looks like a "Trouble". It's my middle name.

    You all are funny

    Meet Willow!



    She is so funny, she follows us around everywhere, and has to sleep within 2 feet of someone or she's NOT happy This is so different from our other two who were SO shy as babies... we'd constantly have to go looking for them to make sure they were okay... and this one won't leave you alone

    Our big kitties are still terrified of her, but I do think they'll come around.. so far they're avoiding her, they're not outwardly aggressive or anything.

    The dog likes her She isn't so sure about the dog though...

    Aw...she looks like a Willow! She's just beautiful!

    We are terrible at naming animals. We have a cat named "Kitty" and two dogs, both with exceedingly popular dog names (Maggie & Charlie). And the goat we named? Buddy. Some of our chickens also have names. They are Seven, Pretty Bird, Puffy Cheeks, No Tail and Attila. Seriously, we suck at this.
