Fifty Plus (50+) - What should DG name his cat?

What should DG name his cat?

Think he had a very good name in one of his previous pets----"Twice"






Because if he called it once- it never came.

Since it is a cyclist's cat, naming it is a no brainer.;)

Cat 1

I once owned a cat. She thought that her name was "Get Down".

Wait till he sees its personality develop, then decide from there. I voted "other." Sleepy, Bashful, Dopey, Grumpy...

He should name it after his old hair-do:

Spike

Since it is a cyclist's cat, naming it is a no brainer.;)

Cat 1

Maybe start off now calling it Cat 5 and see how it goes? ;) I hear mice are good for interval training.

Cat 1

Good choice--almost as good as Jet.

One of our cats is called Jet. We were going to call it Schuie after Shumacher- but the wife wouldn't allow it. And although a bit old- It can still outdistance the dog up a tree.

Good choice--almost as good as Jet.
Jet would be a good name...unless the cat is slow, that would be a catastrophe.

There is of course only one possible name for his cat. . ."Angst".

Webb Diego

Two cats, named Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Lots of good cartoon cat names.

Felix
Krazy (& Ignatz)
Top Cat
or his gang members Fancy-Fancy, Spook, Benny the Ball, The Brain, Choo Choo
Tom (& Jerry)
Scratchy (& Itchy)
Fritz

Cheney
Karl
Georgie
Condilee

I voted "other." He should have it a while to see how its personality opens up as it bonds (as much as a cat bonds) with him. But no matter what he calls it, it won't come when called -- it'll come when it wants to. Such are cats.

Just had a flash -- Kitty Diego. Addresses cat's femininity and the fabled Diegos simultaneously. And it's a simple enough name that even DG can remember it. ;)

This post is cracking me up. So far, I'm leaning toward "Boss." :D

I suppose you could name it Selina, which was Catwoman's true name in Batman. Or Julie for the lovely Julie Newmar. Or I guess Eartha or Halle if you want.

Well?................how many cat toys have you bought so far?

I have a daughter named Hallie. (And I had never heard of Halle Berry when we named her.)

Note that "solveg" is in second place and gaining... :D

Cats are evil. They only look cute so they can lull you into relaxing your guard.

Name it "Buzzsaw"

I don't quite get the logic of naming my cat "Other." :D

I had a friend many years ago who named her cat, "Trigger." Naming a cat after a dog is amusing. Naming it after a horse was really funny.

What was the name of Jimmy Stewart's horse? It was a great name for an animal....

And it was a great 50+ name, too...

Oh yeah...

PIE

(solveg is gaining fast in the standings!!!!!)

Harvey? No that was the rabbit.

Just promise you won't make it wear a helmet....

If it's not named Chia, you'll wish you had.... :D

"GEEZER"

After about a year, all the cat will want to do is sleep.
I like to sleep. I'm a geezer.

GEEZER sounds about right.

If the neighbors start complaining about the old Geezer next door,
you can assume naturally that they mean the cat.

As the lovey ladies in the area learn to love your cat, you can
legitimately show up at their door whenever they call your cat.

I think I'll change our cat's name to Geezer.

Geezer works.

Can I name a female cat Rocky?

Roxy is the female equivalent of Rocky:)

Is that one of the new toys you bought her?

No-one's suggested 'Ruby' ? Cat looks a bit white, after all.

On a sad day, and in the spirit of commemoration, affection and respect - 'Sheldon' ?

Yep...and she loves it! :)

I thought of Ruby, as did someone else here, because of my Roubiax, but I call my bike Ruby Roubaix, and I think I need to expand my thinking.

As for Sheldon, I'd do it in a heartbeat, but it's really a boys' name.

Shelly is a girl's name...

Ooooh solveg is only one behind. If it wins, DG, it's a sign.

I voted for Solveg.

Sisterhood is powerful...

:D:D:D:D:D:D

Does the cat really know she's a girl?
Has she been spayed (sp?)?

Our guy was neutered....so we considered him sexless...became
open season for picking out a name.

My favorite name for a cat belonged to a friend, who named it Underfoot. Perfect. And of course another friend had a cat named DC, for Darn Cat (well, not darn, but you know what I mean...) :D

I have through my life always had cats... I never have a name in mind... I get to know the cat and the cat picks his own name (well you know what I mean, the cat will settle into something that works for him). The current little guy that lives with me I picked up from a shelter in Sonoma. He had to travel down to OC in 100+ heat and he was a little trouper. He's just a cool cat. Very dog like. He was just a "Pip" of a cat so his name is now Pip (or Pipper, or cookies! - whatever he answers too!).Here's my guy - note the square tipped ear, very manly!

It's a good thing I don't get to name her........One of my Siamese cats was registered as "Tutankhamun Ra King of Egypt, Lord of the Nile, bow down before him all ye who come here" :D

My daughter took our latest in this morning for his "operation".

He's still very unsteady on his paws...:D

Solveg is ahead now in the poll.

This is much more interesting to me than that "other thing" people are voting on today...:D

I think you should call her Mouse, but I voted for Solveg.

And this is my first post here. Technically I've got 10 days to go before I turn 50-plus.

Have you no patience man? As a child did you torment your parents with the "are we there" line? Are there people out there standing in line, clamoring to be with the geezers?


Happy almost birthday. How's it feel to be an old fart?


Edit: :D

Woooo-hoooo! Solveg has leaped ahead!!!!!!

Who you calling 'man'? Boudicca was an Iceni warrior woman who razed London and St Albans to the ground before the Romans got their revenge and captured her, so you better watch it, right? Rumor has it she took poison rather than being paraded through the streets in triumph. ;)

But yes of course I tormented the parents with the "are we there yet" line. Didn't we all?

Thanks for the good wishes. :)

Oh no! Solveg has one illegal vote! I smell a recount!
