My cat's name is Kitty. What's yours?

[Maddy McCall]

We tried Salem, but she never really responded. But when I say "Kitty," she knows she's being summoned.

So, what creative cat names do DUers' cats go by?

[elshiva]

1. 9 cats:

Butternut, matzo ball, April, Misty, Dodder, CloudBerry, Monty, Butterscotch, and Fluffy.

[RevCheesehead]

17. Do Butternut and Butterscotch get confused when you call them?

Doh! Oh, yeah, they're CATS. They don't give a shit. :evilgrin:

[elshiva]

35. Butternut is a male. (think about it...uh nut)

And Butterscotch would care, but no mistakes cos of the uhh nut..

[BrklynLiberal]

2. Cassie and Polly. They were twins..like Castor and Pollux, the Gemini

twins, but they were girls, not boys, ergo, Cassie and Polly.
The other two are Mommiegirl and her daughter, Bootsie, an almost all black cat with white feet.

[ralps]

3. My Cat's full name is Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf. I got him in Oct 1992

Crook got his name because of his broken tail I believe


:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Maddy McCall]

5. AARGH! That cat is going to pounce on me!

LOL! How'd he get on the door?

[ralps]

8. I have a cat scratching post/ platform near the door. When he was a little

younger he was able to leap higher. He's now 5 or 6 years old :shrug: :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[two gun sid]

4. K.C. and Puppy-cat.

[Placebo]

6. Dax

but she only responds to "kitty" because that's all we ever call her.

[biscodawg]

7. not my cats

but my good friends cats are named Germany and squeenk. best cat names ever!



Guess which one is which :)

[yellowdogintexas]

14. they look like Lewis and Clark ...how funny!

my Lewis is Grey and Clark is Black. I would guess Germany is the black one sheerly on random.

[ikojo]

9. I have a calico and her name is Tie Dye

I figured that she looks like she was tie dyed so that's what I named her. She knows her name too!

[Zuni]

10. I work with a lady who has a cat named Kitty

it is pronounced Kit-EE

[alittlelark]

11. Autumn, Oliver, Silver, Spot, Goldie, and TK

I also have a foster mama named Isis, and 7 unnamed 2 week old kittens.
And a 9 wk old puppy.

[Throckmorton]

12. Bob and Andrew

Bob is the fuzzy love pig.

Andrew is the aloof control freak.

They are brothers, and my only kitty's at the moment.

Bob Say's Meow! to all the DUer's out there ( he actually Meowed when I mentioned his name), either that or my son hasn't filled the food bowl yet.

[yellowdogintexas]

13. Thomas, Lewis, Clark, and CatZilla.

Lewis and Clark (edit: Lewis is the tabby, Clark is the black one)



CatZilla





Thomas

[maxsolomon]

15. Arvo

after Arvo Part, Estonian composer extrordinaire!

AKA Arv-Dog (he acts like a dog: growling, going on walks) or Murph (his favorite word).

He is the best Fawn Abyssinian EVER!

EVER I SAY!

[RevCheesehead]

16. Oreo, Binky, and Roo (oh, my!)

Oreo, a/k/a "little Miss Chiff" (in foreground)
Binky - likes to chew on my finger (white "Holstein cat")
Roo, a/k/a "the Bishop of Roominster Tabby" (back, left). He has markings in the shape of a cross on his back.

(the demon-possessed eyes are the fault of the photographer)

[WI_DEM]

18. Mine is Kitty as well, full name is Kitty Izza Cat

[nuxvomica]

19. I usually call my cat Amos, "Moose" or "Moosey"

He responds to all three as well as the generic "kitty".

[SOteric]

20. StirFry

Yep. Really.

[Ann Arbor Dem]

21. I have two...Minnie and Guinga. My furry nephew is Floyd.

I adopted two adults within a month after my old girl, Tikki, passed on. (Her name was given to her by her first owner.) Minnie was named so by the folks at the Humane Society (she's a little slip of a thing). After trying to come up with a new name for about a week, she was already responding to Minnie...so it stuck.

Guinga's name was Tiger at the Humane Society. I asked a Brazilian friend to help...her family's pets have almost had great names. She took one look at him and said "he is Guinga." (Guinga is a Brazilian singer/composer.) It fits him perfectly. He's a huge male tabby...he stretches out to over three feet long and has clodhopper feet.

I am so terrible at picking names that if I had children, they would probably have remained nameless.

[graywarrior]

22. Kamere

As is come here. He always responds.

[polmaven]

23. Teddy and Tigger were already 5 years old when they

allowed me to share my home with them.

My nicknames for them, though, are Psycho Kitty and Klutzy Kitty,
'cause Teddy is on Fluoxetine (Prozac) and Tigger falls off things.

[XNASA]

24. Fluffytail & Kisa

When we picked up Fluffytail from the shelter, his name was Romulus, but his tail got so fluffy that.....well, you get the picture.

Kisa has always been....Kisa.

[Sanity Claws]

25. Oliver and Sebastian

They sound more like English prep school boys than furry cats.

[nini]

26. Spanky

He knows his name qutie well :-)

[Cush]

27. Bear (he's a Manx, no tail)

[MissMillie]

28. Millie, Siouxsie and Cosmo

[libodem]

34. my black 13y/o female

37. My cat's name is Oops

Actually, he's my hubby's cat - I'm his step-mom but I love him like he was my own and he seems to love me too (hubby growls that he loves me more than him sometimes but it's not true).

Oops got his name when he was a baby. He was playing on the deck with his brother. The deck hangs over a rather steep hill so it's pretty high off the ground. Anyway, Oops bounded up onto the railing and pitched right off. Oops. Undaunted, he raced back up, climbed onto the railing yet again, and once again, tumbled off.

He suffered no ill effects and today is a 16 pound bundle of pure purring muscle. But the name still fits.

[CornField]

38. Cats: Jennifer, Myst, Cleopestra & Spook

Spook is one of Cleopestra's offspring -- she's actually more pesty than her mother.

Jennifer is the old girl. Mr. CornField got her as a kitten when he was going to school in Seattle.

Myst is a rescue cat who must show us daily that she doesn't really need us, just tolerates us living in her shelter.

[Blue Gardener]

39. Hansel and Gretel

They are of course brother and sister. I really must get a picture or two on Photobucket so I can post them here.

[Cooley Hurd]

40. My friend's cat's name is "Kitty..."

I told him if he couldn't commit to naming her, he shouldn't have gotten her in the first place...:P ;) :D

[khashka]

41. Stevie Lee Jones

So when I'm mad at her, I can get all formal and call her Miss Jones.

But mostly she responds to "my girl" or "my sweet girl". When I say "It's bedtime for Bonzo" she always grabs her fave toy and runs and jumps on the bed and waits for me.

So the gods only know what she thinks her name is...

Khash.

[El Fuego]

42. Cindy

I always give my cats people names so I don't dehumanize them!;)

I also had a cat named Ricky, and the very best cat, Bill (as in Bill the Cat).

[tammywammy]

43. We have 5

Mia


Monty


Chloe


Ali


And Smokey, but I don't have any pics of him.

[Dave Reynolds]

44. We have 3,

not necessarily creative.

Bob, Mister, and BC (which can stand for Baby Cat, Bad Cat, or Bastard Cat).
