Rescued a small black kitten who was in a bad way, we guess around 6 - 8 weeks. Gammy eyes, weak and dehydrated. Found her as I walked back from my car to my house curled up by the side of a building. Asked around the local area/rscpa/local animal shelters if she was anyone's apparently not so we've taken her in, before the "you've stolen someones cat" bashing begins, I was responsible enough to check if anyone may be missing the darling as I'd hate to be missing my kitten and someone find it.

Anyway, she's been cleaned up as best I can for now until I can get her to the vets. So, we need a name! Any suggestions welcome

Pollyanna (my dream name for a black girl cat)
Pimento (for a black girl cat that we had a long time ago)

She looks just like my new kitten!
We took ages to choose a name, I had a thread on here too. DS named her Jessie Smile
Other ideas were;
Indie
Oreo
Kitty
Susie
Lucky

Good on you for rescuing her, we just named our black kitten Luna. Other ideas were Nancy, Willow and Pixie x I agree with the others about puddle too that's fab!

Blackbird ( birdie for short)

Puddle is great. I like Pickle. DH won't let me call any of our pets after food or household objects Grin

Seymour.

ColdSancerre · 20/08/2015 22:00

I love Puddle or Raven as suggestions.

acatcalledjohn · 20/08/2015 22:16

Ethel.

She's gorgeous Envy

acatcalledjohn · 20/08/2015 22:17

Or Harriet. That way if it ever emerges that she is a he, he could be Harry.

ColdSancerre · 20/08/2015 23:30

I had a Harry.

Oh I want a kitten now. I have my fat tabby cuddling up though so he will have to do.

timtam are we related?

cyclerunmum1 · 22/08/2015 17:18

Bit late to the thread, but your kitten also looks the same as our new little girl! She too was abandoned around 7 weeks old.

We called her Betty but she is morphing into Betty Boo, and now Boo for short! I do tend to call my other animals by lots of different versions of their names too though, and my children too!

Good luck with her. We were still finding ticks in Betty's coat 2 weeks after she'd been seen by the vet and treated for lots of nasties, it took her almost 2 weeks to really come too, but she is now the craziest, cutest thing ever :)

Hi everyone, thought I'd add a quick update on kitten! It seems the name Holly has stuck for her and she's doing really well. She's gained weight and is much more lively and kitten like than when I first found her. Thanks for all your help and pictures of your kitty's!
