Male kitten arrived yesterday. Not entirely anticipated as he has a disability (congenital absence of left back paw) that meant his planned home fell through.

He is very tiny, shy, loves his food.

We would like a “proper” name. Short.

Seamus, Rory and Wilbur are in contention. We can’t agree.

Ideas very much appreciated.

What about Poca or Tez?

Tezcatlipoca lost his foot fighting a monster...

He’s seriously cute, I personally am loving the Nemo suggestion our cats were left to the DC to name so we have a Tigger and Twinkle

MrsVakarian · 19/09/2021 13:22

How about Ron? He looks like a Weasley to me

Some lovely suggestions. Thank you. I’ve had a very tough couple of months (my DM died in July and I’ve really struggled with that loss), so getting “kitten” unexpectedly and having everyone here be so nice about him has been a real boost.

I’ll let you know what we decide.

Another vote for Nemo 🐈

TreaslakeandBack · 19/09/2021 14:43

He’s beautiful and Nemo definitely should be his name❤️⭐️

P. S. He’s gorgeous!

I have a Seamus and a Rory, both gingers.

Eric (the Red). He is absolutely gorgeous by the way: I’m glad you and he have found each other.

Gormless-what are the chances of that for a cross-post!

Vincent. He looks quite soulful. (Van Gogh).
Loki. The Marvel Loki is dark haired but traditionally the Norse myth Loki is a redhead.

My tabby kitten has spotted markings on his tummy and so he is called Muldoon (from the Peter Cook song with the line 'Spotty Muldoon, Spotty Muldoon, he's got spots where others have not.).

We used to have a ginger cat we called Robertson (after the marmalade). It was usually shortened to Robbie.

My sister in law had a three legged cat they named Tripod.

Eric, Trevor or Barry xxx

DifficultBloodyWoman · 20/09/2021 06:23

I’m voting for Nemo.

But since I am not part of the family, that might not be counted.
