What shall we call our new kitten?

How about a name from politics kitty
Larry and Palmerston are the Number ten and eleven cats.
Disraeli ( Dizzy for short?) Balfour, Or to be up to date Corbin ( new spelling, all cats like bins).May....as the kitten is female. Or Bo-Jo ?

How about Brexit?

or Brexkit

The name I suggested earlier (Pixie) would not suit a fully grown cat! So I withdraw that suggestion! I used to have a cat called Sophocles - I know, but I inherited him! He was generally known as Soppy, so you can imagine how I sounded calling him in at night. If I'd had another cat, I'd have called him/her Parker, from the Swahili Mpaka. And cats are nosy characters aren't they? But I couldn't have a cat now, living, as I do, on a very busy road. .

My dad called me Topsy. It was also the name of MiL’s dog. We both used to answer to it

Our lovely girl was born with a bent-over crumpled ear (which is why we chose her), she is called Crinkle.

Betty? Lizzie? Hetty? Elsie?

Does anyone else not use the name they chose for their cat
H greets Bertie with 'hello puss' if we are calling him in at night we just do the persed lips sucking air thing.
Our previous cat was already named Skye when we got her and we didn't change it but H would call her Madam.
kitty I think whatever name you choose baby will stick

Once upon a long time ago I used to show and (in a very small way) breed Siamese.
They each had a forename... the breeders registered prefix, of which I was very proud....plus beautiful registered names which I spent hours devising.
They answered to the likes of "Ditz" "Beebs" and " Muss" (as in puss)

Phoenix. I have it !! The winning entry straight from the pages of GN. Just looking at two threads one above the other

Q. What shall we call our new kitten

Next thread: Custard buns !

If I win, please give kitten to annsixty I'm allergic ?

Give us the verdict, Kittlester...... does your beautiful kitten have a name yet? ? If you still need help, let me give you some more cat names inspired by my own family and friends.

My DH's cousin just adopted the most mischievous, inquisitive kitten named Hazel (aka Hazelnut...she's almost all White w/random Champagne/Black patches, ).

Years ago, my aunt and uncle had a beautiful Taupe/Gray Maine Coon Cat named Brandy (aka Branflakes). My grandmother also once had a White (Siamese) female cat named Bijou.

Among our cat loving friends, the female cats are named Kiki (B&W tuxedo), Grady (Brown, Gray/White Tabby), and Tallulah (aka Lula or Lulabug - she's Jet Black w/green eyes). As I also mentioned earlier, my son's cat is a grand old lady named Margie (Who looks just like Tallulah but she's six years older)

Surely she has to be Kitty?

Doodle love it!

Well, after all that, DH has spoken! Her name is Minnie!

Oh kitty if you go back a few (possibly many ) threads, you will see that our latest "acquisition" from Cats Protection , who was listed on their website as "Tasha", was renamed by us as "Minnie"!

(Seem to remember starting a thread about the Cab Calloway song "Minnie the Moocher")

Great minds eh phoenix!

Slight panic this evening when a friend who was here for dinner (and to see the kittens) found one outside looking confused. We think it followed it's mum through the cat flap!

Well, I have to say that I am disappointed kitty......
Minnie is a mouse name!
( walks off shaking head and tutting.)

Many, many years ago, when our Sherry (tortie and white) had 5 kittens, we lost one when they were 6 weeks old, for a whole day and a half.She was a pretty barred tabby, we called her Pushkin until she was rehomed. As I said, we "lost" her for a day and a half, searched the whole house, plus the gardens back and front, also out in the street, decided she was, regrettably, gone for good. Then we decided to put a record on, opened the doors of the radiogram(a bit of history there!) and there was Pushkin, curled up fast asleep on the turntable!

actually, lemongrove, Minnie is short for Hermione to please DGD1 AKA The World's biggest Harry Potter fan!!

My cousin's AC would rival your GD for No 1 fan kitty their infants are called Atticus and Hermoine.

ann DD would come close.

One kitten we had we took to the vet for the once over. First question we had was it a boy or girl. Vet said he's a Tom. . . so Tom it was.
We've always said if we were to have another cat we'd call him Riley-cos that's what they lead the life of!

Our cat is called Madge, she is a Calico (posh name for a tortoisehell). In the past we have had Homer (he was the last of the litter to be re-homed), Scooby, Dusty (he lived up to his name as he was always rolling in the garden).

Kittylester, please let us know what name you decide on!
