Subject:Cat Ranch Update & a Name Contest!
Time:10:34 am
Current Mood:[mood icon] cheerful


This is Flash. She is one of the female cats that we feed. Flash won't let us catch her to get her fixed! Today was the first time she had her newest litter out where we could see them. It looks like we have three more cats now! The tabby is obviously a male. The other two are most likely female. One is a Tortoise Shell Tabby (Torbie) and the other is a Tortoise Shell (Tortie). Three color cats such as Torties, Torbies, and Calicos are almost always female. If we can tame these kittens, then they will become available for adoption when old enough.


Can you help us come up with names for these new kittens? We'd love to hear everyone's ideas for names! We'll need two girl names, and possibly one boy name. So far, the only idea for a name we have, is for the little boy. My 8 year old daughter wants to name him Wil, after Wil Wheaton who so generously donated an autographed 8 x 10 color photograph to help raise money to get some of our cats fixed and vaccinated. She said she also wants to name him Wil because he looks just like his older brother Wesley Crusher.



Post your ideas for names in the comment section of this Live Journal entry! We'll chose the names we like most. If we can't narrow down the choices, then we'll open up a vote for everyone to participate in to help us decide. Whoever suggested the female names that we choose will receive a prize! If the same name is suggested more then once, then if that name is chosen the first person who suggested it will be the winner.

I'll go along with your son for Wil for the boy. It's a nice way to remember a very nice gesture. For the girls, Shelby and Hedy. For some reason they popped into my head.

Give em geeky names.
My cat's name is Kramer (as in Cosmo), and my brother's cat's name (before we lost him) was Jerry.
He's all fuzzy!

Anyway, I would say go with Geek names. I can't think of any fitting ones off the top of my head...but yeah.

How about Sushi and Pesto for the two little girls. I wanted to name our kittens those names, but my kids vetoed that :)

I love torties... they are so cute!

The kids like the name Sushi. But, they said neither of the cats look like a Sushi. They want to save the name until we have another Oriental or Siamese cat.

I had a tortie who we called Sushi... her real name was Smokey, she was also called Susie, then finally Sushi. She disappeared one day when the door wasn't closed quickly enough and she ran out. I think visitors next door scooped her up and took off before we could figure out what was going on. She was *my* cat. Full of energy and very funny... a real personality :)

Whatever names your daughters decide upon will be wonderful... they have done very well so far :)

Looks like you get a prize! We named one of our newest kittens Sushi! We named her littermates Wasabi and Ginger. You can see their pictures in my newest LJ entry. Thanks!
