We’re bringing her home next week.

Her current name is Tabasco which we’re not sure if we like.

Gorgeous! He looks like a Mr Mistoffelees to me...

@Arlanymor He's a she.

Oh sorry, I missed that! Typing, running a bath and watching the rugby at the same time! And all of our black and whites have been boys, so I think my mind went to autopilot a bit! She is gorgeous.

I'm not sure why, but Onyx came to mind. It's often black, and the word itself comes from the Greek for "claw" or "fingernail," but mainly, it looks elegant on the page and has two syllables so might be easier for her to learn. She's lovely, isn't she?

Nyx (goddess of the night)
Bastet or Seshat (egyptian cat related deities)
Star (because she has a white star)

He looks exactly like my old boy (RIP) who was so smart and friendly.

We've got a Nora and her mum was called Nellie.

I’ve always said if we ever got a black girl she would be Marnie. (We have an orange boy and previously had a pure white girl, but black Marnie lives on the fringes of my imagination.)

MinnieMountain · 27/09/2025 16:46

It’s a female peeps.

Some lovely ideas here.

Or, thinking about the original spice theme, why not - ironically - call her Ginger?!

Ravenna. Just watched an episode of Endeavour and it was in that, quite nice, I think 🤔

AutumnCosy2025 · 27/09/2025 16:51

SHE's a cutie!

Tabasco was a weird choice for a black cat!

HER paws made me think of ballet, which always makes me think of Darcy.

Hang on. Has she got the extra claw thingy? Those paws look big.
