Pegasus Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 We ended up bringing home 2 kittens today from a feline rescue group. They are sisters and the group really wanted to adopt them out together. One is solid black and the other is tortoise-shell. The torti seems fearless and immediately left the crate when we got them home and started exploring all over. The black is more reserved and a bit more skittish. They came with the names McGhee I and McGhee II for the apartment complex where they were found. They need new names. We are brainstorming and can't decide. Here's our list so far but I welcome other ideas as well. Chaos and Mayhem (shortened to Kay and May as they outgrow the kitten stage) Pepper and Hazel Demonica and Mayhem Sekhmet and Bast Tootles and Slightly Skyla and Luna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellie Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I had two sister kitties for many years. I wanted literary names, so I chose them from one of my favorite books, The Little White Horse. My kitties were Loveday and Minette, after the character Loveday Minette (I also have a Wrolf, for LWH fans). We never shortened their names but always called them Loveday and Minette. :-) Cordelia and Ophelia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swellmomma Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Torti's are considered "money cats" they are thought to bring wealth to the owners, of course black cats have the issue of being thought to be bad luck. SO you have good "luck" and bad "luck" being brought into the home, so maybe Fortuna and JinxETA your torti looks similar to my torti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFSinIL Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I have found, will all our pets, that after a few days we just know their names. I think the animals send us vibes, or something, to let us know who they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I have found, will all our pets, that after a few days we just know their names. I think the animals send us vibes, or something, to let us know who they are. I completely agree! My pets could not possibly have different names. They fit their names perfectly. When we got our German Shepherd Dog, it was so strange. Dh and I both had a notion in the back of our minds that we wanted a GSD and we wanted to name it Sergeant (if male). It was so remarkable how that name was just the clear name to both of us with never any discussion or debate. He just said, "I always wanted to have a German Shepherd named Sergeant," and I said, "Me too!" And that was that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 I apologize for the delay in updating! I really enjoy the creativity of this board. I love a lot of the names suggested. I really tried to make Chaos and Mayhem stick but as we got to know the kittens, we rotated through quite a few names. My DDs have finally settled on. . . Hazel for the torti and Jinx for the black They had their first (with us) appointment with the vet today. Hazel did fine but Jinx turned wild on them and protested vehemently at the vaccinations. Both are healthy but Jinx has an old eye injury that may have caused permanent damage to her sight in that eye. You can see in her picture that she doesn't fully open one eye. We will be treating it just in case it can improve some. They are sore and tired now so we are letting them rest in quiet. Thanks again for all the ideas for names. I should copy to store them for the next time I need pet names! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom-ninja. Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Great names. I hope Jinx is able to recover sight in her injured eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
