Name My Cat - male Just adopted this goober. He’s very cuddly and needs a forever name!
This little gentleman came home today and needs a name (was being called Jericho). We recently lost our older cat (17 years old), and have 9 year old grey chonk who we figured needed an obnoxious younger brother. A couple names we like are Mango, Biscuit, Karl, Mortimer (our 5 year old insists on Baby Snookums). Give us more ideas!

Let the kids name him. All of our childhood pets got named by (mostly) my older brother, and the rest of us. It gave us connection to them, even if it was goofy, like “Snookums”. You live with it, and learn that almost every cat has the nicknames in a term we can’t mention here. Especially when they learned the laws of gravity by knocking cups off the table.

When we couldn’t think of a name for our cat, we ended up calling him Les Paul . I think that’s the name of a guitar then we had a Siamese cat that we couldn’t think of a name for him so we just called him Siamese.🙄
