My cats name is Pumpkin shes a Tortishell cat. And her name is not Pumpkin because she is orange because she is NOT orange she is a tortoiseshell. Her name is Pumpkin because we got her in October. We found her in an abandoned building when she was a kitten so we kept her and she is going to have kittens soon!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!
Im going to name some of the kittens: Mila, Aslan, Mika, Riza, and Ruza if anyone has names for some fluffy kittens then please tell me some ideas because I don’t really have any other ideas. Lol.
So Emily I have One or two ideas. How about for a male you could name it Link and for another female maybe Zelda? I really don know sorry! But I like the name Link for the male.
Well, I think maybe for a female you could say… Artemis if its a boy and its white. Or Luna if its black and a girl. And perhaps Lune? I dont now if I helped Emily Im sorry if I didn’t but hope I did
My aunt has a cat named Hellcat(all black dark blue eyes). Literally. Hellcat is kinda mean for the cat. The reason she is named that is because when she’s in the shadows her blue eyes are the only thing you see and also she DOES NOT LIKE PEOPLE AT ALL hardly even likes my aunt’s husband and she claws almost everyone. but not me for some reason I have a way with animals. One time a stray cat was at my house when I was 3 It came to my lap and slept when my dad came outside it hissed like crazy and charged at him. I was like WHAT!? Another time a 2 pitbull. and a German Shepard ran at my mom and sister when I was 6 I actually clapped and they let me pet them. I love Pitbulls they are the most misunderstood dogs. It depends on how you raise them if they were abused and neglected then they are aggressive to humans if you love them and treat them kindly they are one of the most friendly things!
Sorry, Im so talkative! XD
So um Emily what color is your cat? If they take after her then they would take the colors of tortoiseshell cat colors, right? Like one be black one brown and some mixed?
Also what color is the father? Some might take after him.
Yes that would be it and the father I have seen him with her and he’s like an orange tabby with one white paw.
Wow, u responded soon! Im on here almost all the time I like to read the comments.
So am I. Wanna chat?
Sure! Im very talkative. So what do you want ur job to be when ur old enough? I wanna be a weather person. I dunno why.
I want to be a vet or someone that protects endangered animals. I love animals a lot even snakes my mom HATES them.
Cool! Maybe someday u will be someone that saves my pet! Do u have any pets? ( other than the cat)
Well, I have a year old puppy. He is a Golden Retriever and Great Pyrenees mix. And then I have a Dalmation he is fully grown he is 7 years old which would make him 49.
The puppy must be HUGE a great Pyrenees is BIG and mixed with golden retriever GOOD GRACIOUS he must also be fluffy I can just imagine him! Whats both their names?
Yeah, heś fluffy and he is big bigger than my Dalmation already I am going to be dead when he tries to cuddle and he is full-grown ? The puppy is named Buddy and the Dalmation is Sheldon( like Plankton´s real name) the name suits him he tries to get revenge on the cat when she stole his food. XD Heś saying GIMME BAAAACCCKKK! he never catches her
Sounds like mister Sheldon is a killer like a guard dog he doesn’t fool around does he? I think both of those are good names.
Sheldon is a killer. One time a stranger walked up our driveway and Sheldon snapped off his wire leash and chased that guy down the street biting his legs and tripping him. Poor man. At least he is not dead. Oh gotta go time for breakfast its morning over here!
Bye!

And if the back is a girl then i will instead name them Lionblaze, Jayfeather, and Hollyleaf.
HELP IT WONT LEMME COMMENT
oh there it goes
U READ WARRIORS!!!!!!
Yes, yes i do. I also enjoy reading Seekers and Survivors. Both written by Erin Hunter and I’m going to start reading Wings of Fire by her to :3
I love Wings of Fire. I think you will love them because I sure do!!! Erin Hunter has sooooo many different names sometimes I think I’m reading her book at the library if it’s a good one. Its nice that u like to read. Ya got any books right now? Because of the…. well I dont wanna say it I dont wanna freak people out
Yes i have one its 420 pages I like to check how many :3 Its called Witches of Ash and Ruin and no its not bout green wrinkly cackling ladies with brooms. Its about witches that look like people and one girl is trying to find out who is killing some of the witches. I do not recommend it to people who are against cussing it has some in there. Not to much like crazy-saying-it-in-every-sentence-thing but if u r against it then ya know don’t read it. I don’t cuss but I’m not against it either. I mean let people be who they r and if they are bad people that bully or something tell them that their life will have consequences because of their decisions. People are mean sometimes and yes some are g a y DONT REPORT ME FOR SAYING THAT thereś literally a person with a cuss word in their username up there! As I said accept people for who they are, once u get to know them they are not bad like u think. Like some bullies bully because they have a tough life and others may because they were bullied in the past. So talk it out at first and if that dont work and they look like they gonna punch u then yell at them saying to stop. Dont say something to mean people! that will just make things worse!
Ok ur gonna make me cry, literally. Im…bi………… DONT REPORT ME OR ANYTHING LIKE LITERALLY PLEEEEAAAASSSEEEE DONT REPORT US! And u saying to accept people for who they r. Lots of people don’t wanna be my friend because of me bein u know. They think I’m to ‘weird’. But u belive in that, to accept people! U r the one person I met that said this in comments I have ever read.
Yes i do belive in that. and so I dont care what people think of me any longer. They used to bully me and everything i actually hit a boy for bullying me and my friend he was harsh even cussing we were in 3rd grade!!! So i hit him. But he kept bullying my friend I would see him and confront him by looking at him with a stern look. After that i started making bullies stop bullying people even if i did not know them. Soooooooo I believe in that. But that day I hit him it was only on his shoulder. He stopped after that. Bullying me i mean. And after 3 years i have seen him again he is still bullying I talked to him and he said he could if he wanted. So i let him bully me instead. He left other people alone more often. I walked in front of a teacher’s room one day when he was bullying me in the hall, following and saying things cannot say here. The teacher heard him and followed us she stopped him and they sent him to the office. He said he was saying no such things. I did not mean to get him in trouble so i got him out of it. I told them he was just joking with me. They asked with harsh things like THAT. And i said yes. I did lie but i got him out anyways. He said thanks in the lowest voice possible for him. I said welcome and walked off. Now we see each other in my Middle school of Gettys. I and him kinda get along even though it awkward because i got him out of trouble just before the… ummmmm sickness. So now he don’t bully. Be kind to others and they may just be kind to u.
Whoa. What a story. So like u and him r friends? That’s awesome!!! U sound like a good person someone That cares. I care about others but I never tried to actually HELP a bully. But hey it stopped him from doing it. HEY…. U KNOW WHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT???
What??
I think he has a crush on someoooooonnnnnnnnneeeeeeee!!!!
Ok please dont say that i mean we are friends but………….. i dont have THAT kind of feelings for him though
Do u have feelings for someone??? XD I’m nosey
U know who i am Emily… We both go to the same school!! I just realized which Emily u were. It’s me!!!!

I named my cat Socks Da Puss …….. Like Octopus
Kitten rescued from almost being hit by a car after separated from mother cat. Looking for a good strong powerful name. She’s 3 weeks old and gray and white fur. Blue eyes and she’s blind in her right eye. What would be a good mystic strong powerful name?

I have 4 cats named Duchess, Salem, Finnaginn, and Felix. Sadly Felix passed away of stomach cancer a couple weeks ago.
I would name your kitten cloudy or stormy, or something along the lines of clouds. Perhaps thunder?
snow ball
A Siamese cross with something. Had gorgeous blue eyes, and some Siamese markings. He had a dark mask on his face. Named him SooLee, “Little raccoon” in Chinese for the dark rings around his eyes. A tabby that liked to have his leash clipped to the clothesline, so he could run after birds, was named “Goofus McDuff” after a doctor in a humorous book, known for his brilliant diagnosis skills, and bad treatment plans. Goofy would do all the stalking right, and then jump too early and scare the birds away. He never caught anything. I think the birds laughed at him. All of my cats thought their name was “Hey! Cut that out!” when I brought them home.
Several months ago, my DH brought home a skinny soaking-wet kitten he had rescued from a flood. I’ve never had a cat before & wasn’t too sure about keeping it. He asked me what I wanted to name it. I spied a bag of kitkat candies on his desk, so I said her name is KitKat. DTW, she has stolen my heart!
For months my wife had been considering getting a cat. One day she came home from work with a little fellow that had just been weened. He cried for a couple of days and then settled in like he owned the place. He loved to roughhouse like kittens sometimes do with each other. My wife had been reading a series of cartoon books about Calvin and Hobbes. The kittens appearance and nature seemed well suited to the name Hobbes and he is quick to respond to it. We’ve come to discover several vets are fans of the cartoon too. Oh, he decide that he is my cat, rather than my wifes’.
I didn’t see these names, but our family cat past and present names are Pancake for our large tabby, Frankie, Winston, Crowley, Tofu, Mister, and Phoenix. A new addition might be Jojo, Biscuit, or Oscar. Dallas, Griffin and Kingsley are great names too.
I’ve only had one cat at a time, but in succession their names were – Elwood, Eli and now I have Elvin <3
Smudge
Love It!! Very quirckie and cute and clever
All my cats thought their name was Hey! Cut That Out! until I decided on a name. My first cat was named Goofus McDuff after a character in a book who would do everything right until the last step, which he always screwed up. Goofy would stay outside with me, clipped to the clothes line, as I worked in the garden. When birds would land in the grass he would immediately stretch out and drop low, wiggle his butt, get poised to jump, and then growl loudly. The birds would fly away and Goofy would jump and land face first in the grass. He never caught anything.
Met a cat that was a “resident” of a vet’s office. When i Asked what the cats name was they said, “K.C.” (Casey, of course, but…) they couldn’t come up with a name that the whole office could agree on, so Kitty Cat, got the name “K.C”– for KittY -CaT!
All of my pets have been adopted rescue pets, and I, myself was adopted as a baby, and coincidentally, my Birth name (Last name) was , in fact, “Casey,” so of course, I always remembered that pet name and had, over the many years since then, had a cat and later a dog, each named K.C. And Kasey! ( A Rottador, male, so i went with the “K”.)
( Also had an All gray cat named Ashley! ASH-ley — gray like ashes? with green eyes who looked Just like the Grinch from the holiday classic, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas!)
Now have a striped-ish calico named Amber, the color of her beatiful, black-lined, bright eyes!
Thanks for listening and for Sharing!!
My cat is named Barley. She’s a loaf
Named a recent stray “LC” (Elise), short for Little Cat
Aw, that’s a cute concept! Nicely done.
My cat name was . Wu Tang I personally love the name it fit him perfectly he was a white American short hair and beautiful. All white got very big had him for Eighteen years. We had a fire at our house we had to get out but my cat lived to a week in a half later my cat died at 18 from smoke inhalation and other problems miss him.
Hi Theresa, thank you for commenting…what happened to Wu Tang was tragic. I’m so sorry. I hope you’re doing alright. – Mallory
My first cats name is Ponce (Pounce) DeLeon. He’s got ptsd from his previous life, so he’s my big baby. I met a lady at a party and we were talking about cats haha and she said how certain cats come into your life who have been with you through multiple life cycles. Felt that. About a week later i randomly had the name Nora pop into my head. Thoufht it was strange cuz I’m done having kids rn and I have a friend named Nora so whatevs. Ran info a woman selling kittens and my daughter wanted one sooo bad. So, we got one. Brought her home, and she’s polydactyl, she has 24 toe beans. So, thinking of a name, looked it up and Ponce DeLeon’s wife’s name was Leonora. So we have Ponce and Nora, and I think they’re my lil life besties. My familiars <3
Great names! Thanks for sharing.

My orange tabby cat came into my life at the age of one and a half from the Humane Society with the name Nugget. I thought it was so appropriate given his orange tabby colouring. However, he didn’t respond to it that often. It didn’t take me long to notice he often peeked around the corner of every door in the house. Hence I started calling out to him by using the old adage and saying “peekaboo I see you” and he would come running. Needless to say by doing so he took ownership of his new name, Peekaboo, and appears to love it! He is four years old now and I couldn’t ask for a more adorable, personable and beautiful little feline friend!
Aww, thanks for sharing Diane! Peekaboo is an adorable name.

Maisy is a great cat name for your cat, I have a domestic shorthair cat gray and white cat named Maisy, and I think it’s such a beautiful and unique name for your cat. Fun Fact: The name Maisy means pearl in Scottish origin.
