    Need help with a name for kitty friend!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Ok those who know me know that I tend to help out animals that need a little extra help. Ponce was our last kitty we helped out. He had a bad problem with cysts on his face all the time. His family did not take care of him. He was a great kitty. He went missing many months ago. i was very sad...till last week when another neighbor swears they have seen him and he looks good. So thinking someone has adopted him. Which makes me happy. But when he went missing his brother came looking for him. He is not like his brother. He is shy and not as social as his brother was. But he keeps showing up and is so skinny. I stole him for a couple days and got him fixed and got him shots and tested. When we leave our friend puts food out for him. But i think other cats eat his food. So as soon as we get home from a trip he is at our front door. No matter what time of day or night. He likes outside which is fine. But he comes in and plays with the toys and eats. He is so pretty.....but we can't for the life of us figure out a name for him! I keep calling him handsome, Cause he is but my hubby thinks he needs a real name. Our cats now are Aki, Bo and Willow. Aki is short for Sukyaki she is siemese. Ok here is a picture of handsome.

    Wow, he's gorgeous! I bet you'll always call him handsome, whether you give him another name or not.

    He looks like those old pictures of ocean ship cats, especially standing on that keg of rum. ;D How about a seafaring name? maybe Ahab, or Captain?

    He's a beauty! Very tiger-lion like... how about a swahili name?

    I found a translator online and Zuri means handsome in Swahili.

    Has a nice strong ring to it.

    Zuri is a good name.

    He struck me as a Vincent, though.

    Oh, he really is Handsome!

    I'd call him Handy for short. It's a great picture.

    What about Bello? I was looking up translations in different languages for handsome and came up with this one.

    I was going to suggest Beau, but you've already got a Bo.
    Maybe someone can come up with Handsome in some other language?
    He is very handsome.

    He is a big, beautiful cat! I would have a hard time saying no to him. My first thought was he is a handsome cat. I dont' know if any other name would fit him.!! Sorry i'm not much of a help but he really is handsome..

    He looks just like our cat Cookie (see avatar). My husband named her Cookie because when he first saw her, her face looked just like a chocolate chip cookie.
