help with renaming rescue kits please!

[liveinazoo]

i am in dispute with 4dcs over the names of our soon to be 9month old cats

a black tom currently named scooby and a long haired black and white girl named princess

we agree the names they currently have arent for us but are struggling to agree on new ones

current we have;
rex and random

rhubarb and custard

atticus and scout

mariska and belzer

salt and vinegar

kit and caboodle

help us choose please!
if you have abetter suggestion this is also welcome!

we have until sunday to make a decision!

Atticus and Scout for me zoo for so many reasons.

Atticus and Scout for me too. Atty is a fine cats name.

From yours kit and caboodle, other suggestions bob and Marley, Tom and jerry, me and ow, kit and kat, itchy and scratchy, pebbles and bam bam

Victoria & Albert
Samson & Delilah
Alice & Cooper

I like Atticus & Scout though

at alice and cooper!!

I like the name Random for a cat! I'm always a bit dubious about "twin" names- you have to make sure they work on their own in case (God forbid) anything happens to one

Atticus and Scout. Definitely.

would be kit and caboodle for me there is a cat sanctuary in america called caboodle ranch look it up on u tube the most amazing place for cats iv ever seen.

What if they dont respond to the new names? we tried to re-name a female cat once (very clever girl she was too) but she was having none of it.

Our cat on the other hand answers to his new name and his previous name.

We adopted 2 kittens who were previously Ginger and Lola, they quite happily became Pumpkin and Tango.

I would suggest for the black cat: Pepsi, Sooty, Darth or Vader, Shadow, Midnight, Sid (short for Obsydion), Zorro

For the black and white cat: Domino, Pingu, Sue, Moo,

Where are are the black and white patches? We had a cat called Tux as he had a white chest and white paws.

If you would like a together set I like Sooty and Sue best :)

Although I do quite like Rhubarb and Custard I don't think they are the right colour for the names. Plus what are their characters like? Our Pumpkin is called pumpkin because she is a bit of a bruiser and larger, as well as having a round ginger splodge on her face. Tango is a bit mad and the name totally suits her.

the black one has a round face and looks really smiley and friendly iyswim
the black and white one has a thinner face despite being long haired and she has a more cautious face but looks quite smug and wise!

i did think calling them moonface and silky as she has very soft fur and his face is so round!!!

tom and jerry, meg and mog, sooty and sweep, charlie and lola,

if I think of anymore I'll come back.

DS just suggested patches for the black and white one.

Harry & Hermione

dd1 suggested ron and hermoine til i pointed out he isnt a ginger!!!

sooty (for the all black tom) & sweep

I really like the Zorro suggestion.

We used to have rabbits called Charlie and Lola. We just have Charlie now

Dd says Midnight and Pingu

Myrtle and Albert

It is the year of the Jubilee and the Olympics - could they offer any suggestions?

Elizabeth and ? What is the Queen's husband called?

I do love Atticus (Atta pus) and Scout though. One of my favourite novels and one with an excellent moral to instill in your dcs (walk a while in another man's shoes before you judge him and all that).

Pip and Liz does make me chuckle though

i was so pleased dd1 had to read to kill a mockingbird in her final year school in english
we read it together and i did the deep southern accents so it made bette sense to her
she had to buy her own copy and to my knowledge has read it at least twice since then
it amazes me something writtten so long ago is still as contemporary.it deserves its place as a classic

so most for atticus and scout,with a couple for kit and caboodle

we have until sunday lumchtime
keep voting people!

I loved teaching it. The kids would moan throuigh the first section which is really dull and plead with me, "Why are we reading this Miss?" and I would tell them to persevere... To Kill A Mockingbird and Wilfred Owen's Dulce Et Decorum Est always moved even the most stubborn classes.
