Luvachicken Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I knew you'd end up getting more than one as well Can't wait to hear what you call them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 3, 2016 Author Share Posted July 3, 2016 I'm quite smitten with my new little time wasters! They are too cute and actually really tame! They joined me when I was attaching the Feedr in the back of the run on the ridge of the Go Up. And one started picking at my hair. It then hopped on my hand and stayed there to get an air lift to the right side of the garden. The other two aren't really impressed by these intruders yet. But they are quite vunerable to predators I guess. Red the tomcat already had his go this morning and even my rather dumb iPoes thinks they are worth a stalk... Have to keep my eye on them!

Chickabee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Thought of some names. Betty (from the song Black Betty by Ram Jam), Raven, Noir and Storm. I had a black fluffy female cat called Woolfie (my husbands idea and somehow it stuck) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 3, 2016 Author Share Posted July 3, 2016 Thanks Chickabee So far I had thought of: Silver and Carbon Raaf and Merel (Raven and Blackbird in Dutch) My dad used to have a black cat called Orange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I like Raaf and Merel. It's hard with black because most names sound harsh and they're such sweet little things. I've just got 2 new girls. A gold silkie who coincidentally I was thinking of calling Red, and a Cream Legbar who might be called Purdey, after my favourite Joanna Lumley character from the 70's. I'll try to get photos later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 3, 2016 Author Share Posted July 3, 2016 I like Red! My neighbours tomcat is called Red. And technically Nutmeg and Ginger have those names, but I normally call them Pink and Purple because of their legbands. Cinnamon was Yellow.

mullethunter Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I like names from Rock songs (if I recall, someone already does that). My current names are from a trashy American sitcom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickabee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Oh yes so do I. My daughter is called Penny, say no more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 3, 2016 Author Share Posted July 3, 2016 I like nerdy names. Although iPoes was just the easy option as I used to call my previous cat Poes (she was named Amy). Next cat might be Schrödinger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula123 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 My previous cat was called Dodi, he was rescued on twelfth night and named after a dodecahedron (12 sided shape), Octi my 15 year old was born on the 8th of the month and is named after an octagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 My daughter isn't named after Penny in BBT, she's just very like her . My chickens names are carefully thought out. (For about half an hour) Other than when I let my cousin choose the name of the bluebell that I bought her. It was the day after Prince died so she called it Purple Rain . Please don't get me wrong I did think Prince was amazing. However every time I see said hen, I burst into song (it lives with me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
