            My soul mate, also named Chester, passed away on August 5 this year. He was killed by two stray dogs, and I am heartbroken. He was a big ragamuffin cat, 16 lbs, red and white with the best personality and protective nature. I will miss him forever.

    I had a female orange and black calico named Punkin but she got fat and we all called her Chunkin.
    Also had a black and white splotched male years ago, we named him Beef, because he looked like a cow.

      I used to have six cats at one point: two each tuxedo, tortoiseshell and ginger. Their names were Mog, Missy (torties), Hugo, Jake (tuxedo), Zac and Ollie (gingers). All gone now sadly. My original was like a British Blue (called him Blue – unoriginal I know but suited him so well) and in between also had litter mates Emily and Sam, and Harvey (looked angelic but was soooo vicious!).

      Aww, I had an orange tabby cat named Fang, because his fangs stuck out over his lower jaw like a vampjre kitty! He lived to be almost nineteen years old-I got him whe I was in college, and he lived right into my second marriage. Great choice of name!

    Black shorthair…Oley, named after my great-grandfather
    Gray shorthair….Taco, named after my boyfriend’s motorcycle. A Bultaco brand.

    I’m searching for a name for my new tuxedo kitty. Still undecided. Considering…Cisco, Icabod, Cooper, Orca, Barneby, Pirate.

    I’m getting a Siamese male kitty in about 10 days. I’m thinking about his new name. They used a computerized generated name “Duncan”. It’s okay. I’ve always learned the personality of any kitten, then named it. I’m thinking about a name that I put together by sound. The name is MeShu’. Can someone give me feedback because it’s supposed to be a great name for an affectionate Siamese kitty (if I remembered it correctly). I know he will be fine just as soon as I get him home. He’s 4 months now and a little scared, caged in at the animal shelter. I’m in love with him and I feel like he will be awesome when released. He has to be fixed and shots first. Then he will be happy with me. I’m a cat fanatic anyway… Tina in Georgia.??❤️?✝️?????☯️?

Just got a Ragdoll Cat and it has the colours of the Siamese and Himalayan and very relaxed. I wish you well with MeShu’ and hope he relaxes for you… Just looking for a name for our monster now.

        I have a female Siamese named Boo. She sleeps a lot. She is very loving and protective of me. I raised her from the day she was born. She does have a bad temper and when she was 14 weeks old she chased a herd of deer out of the yard. She chases dogs, groundhogs, cats. She won’t tolerate anything in her yard or her house. She has recently bonded with a 6 month old gray and white male. He is fat and fluffy and so loving. And I can’t come up with a time. I have never had trouble before. But nothing seems to suit him.

      I’ve had one Siamese named Sai Thai & called him Thai. He was very possessive of me, I called him my guard cat. I had two Snoeshoe Siamese at different times. The first one I named “Rocky”, like Rocky Raccoon, cause his face markings looked like a raccoon, but also after Rocky Balboa, cause he had thumbs ( polydactyl), then later had another Snowshoe Siamese named Taz ( Tasmanian Devil ), cause he was like a little tornado. lol
      That’s been 25-39 years ago Thai being the first 39 years ago, so they’ve all passed on over the Kitty Rainbow Bridge now. Now I’m ready for a new furbaby!

He’ll bolt off like lightening for no reason (known to me). “Bolt”? “Rocket”? He likes to ‘make dough’ on my face, “Baker”? “MT” (massage therapist lol) He’ll grab and bite your hand while kicking your arm, scratching the crap out of you… “Trip”, as in trip back up the shelter? Just kidding!! It’s about 4am right now and he’s wide open! Hmmmm. My husband uses wideopen______ as one of his email accounts. And he dislikes cats (though he seems to be coming around a bit). How about “Wo”? Pronounced woo or whoa? He’s constantly ‘marking his territory’ with his face, “Mark”, “Marker”? .. It hasn’t even been 24 hours yet…and we have a lot to learn about each other. Who ever he decides to be I already love him with all my heart <3

    KiKi for a cat that would only come to “here kitty kitty”. She learned KiKi
    Panda for a black and white female cat
    Grayson for a gray fluffy male cat
    Pepper for a stray speckled tabby
    Tyson for a kitten with big paws
    Nightmare for a black cat that used to harass her owner under and on the bed all night
    Nasty for a abused black cat dumped in my yard that got nice later
    Tipper for a cat with white tips on her ears

    I’m picking up an abandoned cat today. I’ve resisted getting him because my cat of 15 years died recently and I just wanted time to grieve then I planned on getting a kitten.
    He is an orange male, around 3 years old. He’s been abandoned at a barn, he’s friendly and seems desperate for love?. I’m thinking about naming him dilly -(short for delivered). His owner who was a dentist and had means, just moved away and left him totally alone.?.

    Here are the names of the cats that have lived with me (70 years worth): Tessie, Goldie, Shootka(Russian for Joker), Simca (Yiddish for blessing), Tiffany (a Siamese), Puff (the magic dragon or Puff’n Stuff), Betsy, Koko (Ko Kau Koon from the Cat Who Mystery books or Kokopeli), Seshu (a Japanese word, I think), Kelly, Roland (from Stephen Kings the Gunslinger), Sammy,, (Clinton, Chelsea, Coal, cats my son adopted).

    I’m adopting a male white cat with some black and grey spots tomorrow. The shelter calls him” Squeak,” I will change his name. I’ve made a list with the help of this site and the comments. but will decide when he comes home and I see how he interacts with my cat-friendly dog, Bella. They say he’s a talker and likes dogs. Speaking of which here are some other names: Teddy, Velvet, Sengie Ka-Bob (mouth of the lion, for a Lhasa Apso), Sheba, Roxanne, Cosette, Marcelle (as in Marcelle Marsoe), Klyde (K for Katrina rescue), and Bella.

He was a tabby cat well fastforwart a year a a go we had to put him to sleep he was very sick and they couldn’t do anything for him. The name my daughter picked out for that little tabby kitten that night was Thunder. And boy did he grow in to that name! When we moved in to our house and he got settled in, he established dominninc and ruled the the 3 block radious like a lepord on the prowl . And gurded our house furiously , no cat or dog came near our house or our walled yard with him around. It was actually funny to watch.

Our girls were Brandy, Grizzly Bear, Muffin, Tinker Bell, Tequila, Cinder and Baby. Other pets we’ve had were rats, all girls, named Peek-a-boo, Precious, Honey, Nibbles, Mist and Luna. Bunnies we have now are Mr. Cinnabun, Bubbles and Lily. Dogs over the years, boys were Sassy, Barkley and Angus. Current boy Is Bo (full name is Urban Legends Little Bo Blue). Girls were Sheba and Bailey. Our current girl is Suzie. We just rescued a kitten 24 hours ago that was bouncing all over the road with a cat food can on its head. He’s a feral but so cute. Grey tabby with rings on his tail. He looks like a Julius for some reason. But we haven’t settled on a name. We need to know him a little better.

It took me a couple of weeks to find the perfect name for him, he became Pepe Le’ Pew, Pepe for short. The hardest part was loosing Oreo at 14 years, th 5 months later loosing Pepe at at 12. The two I have now is Moose age 10 this coming March (my grandpa always named his pets that he named Moose. Grandpa passed away the year before I got Moose. Then there’s my other male cat whose four that I named Tux (as in Tuxedo) who looked like he was wearing a cummerbund, but now looks like a weird black square on husband tummy.

    My Orange tabby cats are named Ampersand and Circa, two names you won’t see on a list of cat names.

    I recently just turned 60. I’ve had cats throughout my whole life. I’ve been without any pets for the past 3 years now & I’m going through Kitty withdraws. So I came upon this cat shelter & they had these 3 little babies only 3 weeks old left in a box to die that they rescued & were dehydrated & fighting for their tiny lives. Thank You to all who work with these shelters btw, saving lives & finding furever homes. Anyway, my furbaby is one of those kittens. I’m still waiting on him to get big enough to get neutered, just found out he’ll be ready in 2 weeks or less, so I can finally bring him home. He’s fluffy with the grey/black striped with the fluffy white bib, front shoes & back boots. He looks like a Maine Coon breed. He’s very lovable, let’s me play with his feet, rub his belly without trying to scratch me, & comes running when I call him, he’s very playful, but also laid back. Total Maine Coon personality & fetches like a dog. I’m trying to think of a name. So far I’m thinking: Sebastian, Gizmo, Cosmo, Chevy Chase, Sir Pounce-A-Lot, Catman Dude or “The Dude” (from the movie ‘The Big Lebowski’). Any further ideas?

      Btw, when I first saw him & his siblings at 3 weeks of age, they had just rescued them the night before. There were 5 total, but one was already dead & another died that night, leaving just 3. I came the day after they rescued them. It was love at first sight for me & I’ve been patiently waiting every since.The woman at the shelter is also fostering him & his siblings & she & I have become friends & I go see/spend time with him at least once or twice a week. That way he’ll know me when he finally comes home. The shelter is a really nice place. None of the kitties are caged all the time. They let them roam freely inside. I really like that! It actually helps the kitties be more sociable. Most go back home at their foster homes. It’s a very clean facility & the kitties are well cared for! The foster mom for my furbaby has taken great care of him & his siblings & they’re very healthy & doing great now. They’re 7 weeks old now & I’m so excited that my little man will be coming home soon! ❤️🐈‍⬛😻

    After reading various cat Apps, I’ve yet to come across my feline son’s name”Winston”, he was orange, when I adopted him,but his fur has turned beige . I’ve come to the conclusion,that his name has something to do with Sir Winston Churchill owning orange tabbies!
