My mother got a dog the year one of the British princes was born and so taking that example named the dog Natasha Lynn Pricilla Rene. She was usually called Tasha... but when she was in trouble they all came out.

She was usually called Tasha... but when she was in trouble they all came out. I actually did this to my green water dragon. His normal name is only 3 names, but he has a HRH five name version. Along with it, he sometimes gets the nickname Prince Albert.

I always end up putting a silly word on the end of my cats' names (not on purpose it just sort of happens spontaneously as time goes by), like Denny doodle Lucy has become Lucy Goosie

Take a look at Beth Stern's Instagram account. Howard names the fosters. I've usually gone with Beatles related names. I now have Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds. When I had a male and female, it was Sir AbbeyRoad and Lady Paulie McCartney I love her Instagram! ❤❤❤ Beth's Instagram and those of her fosters in their forever homes keep me sane. Really like it when Howard sings to the cats because he, like me, can not carry a tune. They kept me occupied one entire Sunday when a pregnant foster was giving birth. Howard's commentary was hilarious.

I like Ferris Mewler - but can't think of a good "girl" name to go with it.
Sloan. Or Sgt. Petersen. How about Dazeof?

My parents named their cat Zeus. And my mom says if they ever get another, she'd name it Apollo. Apparently she has a thing for mythology Zeus and Hera. Those are 2 of mine. Same thing for mythology. No way in hell was I keeping the names Russel and Peanut. Tortue, French for Tortoise, as she is a tortie. She's a bitch too, but that's beside the point. Our first cat was named Fizzgig from "The Dark Crystal". Our friend actually named her when we were drunk. Atoosa - because I wanted a Persian name for her breed. Bones - so named because he was a bag of bones when he found us.

I want to name my next cats Cassiopeia and Snuffalufagus. If I ever get the Saint Bernard I want, he would definitely be a Snuffy.

Those names keep the "R" alliteration.
I love the little guy's goatee, so fashionable!
Otherwise I got nothing. The last kitten I had kept the name "Kitten". She lived to the ripe age of 21 1/2. My vet thought it was pretty funny to be treating a geriatric cat named "Kitten".
Enjoy your furbabies. They will amaze you with their energy after having an older cat. Best part is how much you will laugh as they discover "Life".

We hopefully get to pick them up on weds. Girl has a cold and is finishing antibiotics. Foster mom says she is very loving. Boy is a bit shy but starting to warm up. Tomorrow we will descend upon the pet section at walmart and that will be dangerous for the budget DH has asked multiple times which day they are coming. We got to see a few more pics and a video of them playing where girl pounces on boy. DD1 thought they were hurting each other, she has a lot to learn to about kittens

I'm currently pet sitting (for free, of course) Remington and Chesterfield. Needless to say, their owners like to hunt. Nonetheless, they are very nice cats. Except for Remington who hisses, spits, bites and claws at every possible opportunity. I have another name for him . Perhaps, since cats are always rulers of their domain, Kate and William ?

Our new cat is named Breezey. She was Bree at the shelter, and we wanted to rename her, but keep it similar.
I wanted something silly with a play on words, but DH vetoed it (like Catrick Stewart, but I can't remember mine now and it was so funny!).

Yep, walmart pet section was dangerous. We wanted to get new bowls and another litter box (got a sifting one, not sure if we will like it, mixed reviews online). And it's been years since we've bought cat toys so we went a little crazy. We got multipack of balls, two wands, laser pointer, 2 cardboard scratchers, collapsible play tent, mice, and probably a few more that I'm forgetting. Some will be wrapped for Christmas oh, and clippers, brushes, food, treats, and litter. Had to stop at petco for nature's miracle spray to have on hand just in case! Now we try to wait patiently for the call this week.

Well, did you pick them up? Rory and Ozzie are being dropped off tomorrow in conjuction with the rescue completing a home visit. They should be here about an hour before my MIL and SIL come over for Christmas. I'm sure I will hear about how the kittens are distracting from all of the junk that I've told them not to buy over and over again. Now I just need to recover from the worst cold ever to enjoy it. I didn't make it to the office at all this week and only managed to log in from home for half days. This at a time when I'm beyond swamped with several major deadlines rapidly approaching. Guess I'll be working more over Christmas break than I wanted. I did manage to complete my performance review today. I hate doing them but I think I toot my own horn much better when I'm under the weather.

Still feel like death and now dd has it too. Dh has her at urgent care to try to get meds.
Rory and Ozzie are delightful. Forgot how much energy kittens have. Almost had to put them in time out overnight because they were rowdy, scampering across the floor and up in the bed. Pouncing on moving covers and giving me wet willies. One tried to eat my hair and when I buried myself attempted to unbury me and climbed under the covers. So tickly. Dh wasn't quite as amused lol.
