Lost my much loved cat Scratch on 28th January but now her (can cats have a?) niece has a lovely black and white kitten who I am falling for. Needs to be unisex name dd1 likes "Badger" but DH and I think it doesn't suit. Mums name Fireball, Dads name Whiskey

I always liked the names in "gobblino" - Gobbolino and Sootica. But sootica is def a girls' name!

Haha Donald not this time Grin. Only going unisex because last years grey kitten is rather unfortunately called Fluff after DH assured us all at around this age that "she" was a girl.
isadora love Sniff will always remind me of Scratch. We have a grey cat called Soda too, farm so they're mainly outside with one official housecat (was Scratch), although Fluff has ideas about making it 2. This one still a wee tote at 4 weeks and with mum but has been making him/herself known and I've fallen in love

I knew someone that named their black kitten " Frankenstein " Frankie for short. I thought it was very cute and unexpected.
