New boy - name suggestions please?

He's half Bengal, 11 weeks old

Have him quietly stashed in shower room atm, away from other cats; he's mellowing out in the peace & quiet & can't really tell what he's like yet.

But all ideas welcome Smile

Monty. He looks like a Monty.

He's a beauty.

He's half bengal, he'll be a naughty little lad.

Bertie is a good name for naughty bengal boys.

We need more photos though.

80sMum · 03/09/2015 21:28

I would call him Dennis or Denzil.

Cheekychip · 03/09/2015 21:29

Dennis (the menace)

Oh Bagel - Jeremy is one of the kids' favourites! (for that nice Mr Corbyn Grin)

But DS1 has a friend called Jeremy (& DS2 has a friend called Bertie, Fluffy Smile ) so those could get confusing

Some fab suggestions here, thanks all. I do like Dennis - I suspect he will be a menace - I let him out for bit this morning & he was halfway up a bookcase behind me.

Soon the most uttered phrase will be "NO! Dont".

Word to the wise, step ladders are now a really bad idea in your house.

Especially if the ladders been set up under the loft hatch.

Whens he having is maracas off?

TheOneWiththeNicestSmile · 04/09/2015 15:09

No loft hatch or ladders indoors, Fluffy, thankfully Grin - we do have eaves storage cupboards off the attic room but they are completely sealed inside (& actually quite clean).

He kept climbing all over me when I was trying to work at the computer earlier, but after I put him down on the bed a couple of times he subsided & started playing with things instead of me, so that was pleasing. He's currently snoozing on the windowsill (I have windowsill cushions from zooplus)

He's nearly 12 weeks now - what's the usual age for maraca removal? I know my vet spays early, I'll ask this afternoon what they recommend.

I would neuter as soon as the vet says it's safe. Bengals do not take prisoners when their playing.

Does he have a name yet.

TheOneWiththeNicestSmile · 05/09/2015 19:28

second vacs in 3 weeks & neutering after that if his balls have dropped by then (hope they have, I can imagine him getting more rambunctious by the day otherwise Grin. The vet said they just wait until they have???)

He alternates between naughty & sweetly adorable. he has scary paws - like an owl's when he flexes them.

No name yet but I'm liking the new suggestions. (Funny that we have Mowgli followed immediately by Mungo - for an Archers listener anyway!)

Everybody ok with Mowgli so far. I was wondering about Tigger, as he has the stripes & is full of bounce. Or maybe Leo for the leopard spots on his belly. (Everybody else said no to Dennis Sad)

Velo (short for velociraptor?)

Fluffycloudland77 · 05/09/2015 19:45

Who's his favourite person? asbo had massive balls at 16wks.

goddessofsmallthings · 06/09/2015 02:07

He is truly stunning. What a looker!

I'd call him Ravi as he's ravishing or Harry Krishna but Tigger works well too Smile

BagelwithButter · 06/09/2015 12:00

The Mowgli post made me remember the Mungo debacle on The Archers, of course! Grin
