I know I'm being a bit U, as I'm blatantly posting here for traffic!

He's 11 months old, adopted today, very cheeky, and purrs at a touch.

Photos included, I know the rules!

One rule - names need to be one word only. No 'Sir Mewton of whiskerville' nonsense Wink

Posh old man names actively encourages. My favourite is Sebastian, but not sure it has a cute enough nickname....

Percival - shortened to Purrcy seems appropriate.

Seefer? (Seefercat)

Oreo

His colouring is a bit like an Oreo biscuit (well, vaguely!) but it's a name that you can 'sing out' when you're calling him.

ilovesooty · 30/09/2018 16:44

Herbert.

He's beautiful.

I have an 11/12 month old black cat called Toby.

Other names we discussed were:
Jasper
Sidney
George
Alan
Arthur

I spent far too much time looking at the top 100 names from every decade from 1900-1970!

Ooh, I like Magnus and Basil suggested by pp's

YoThePussy · 30/09/2018 16:50

Raphael, he can then be either Raffy or Rafe. You can never go wrong with a Saint’s name and he has a slightly saintly look to him.

Otherwise Familan!
