............. and why am I not surprised? :roll:
Congratulations - is she with you or 'reserved' for later?
Very pretty.
Name?
What are those gorgeous little desert foxes with the big ears? begins with an 'f' (no - not fox :roll: something fox!:lol: ) I'll try and remember, it might sound nice.

Fennec fox.
Looks OK but I don't think Fennec quite works as a kitty-name

Whoops! Great minds.......I went tu the dictionary to verify the spelling, so you beat me to posting! They do have enoumous ears, don't they! :-D

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:36 PM
Ok,ok....yes she is with me, we picked her up this evening. She is 13 weeks old and her father is a grand champion Black Oriental :cool: Her mum is chocolate tabby point Siamese. We hummed and ahhed about having another but seriously hubby is smitten with Orientals/Siamese since we got Porsha and then Bliss, this is quite a revelation and he was all for me getting another :shock: So having met the breeder at the Supreme and subsequently seeing her cats/kittens (She bred Bliss' mum), hubby offered to buy her me for Xmas :cool: I am booking her first show tomorrow but Bliss will go out first as hers is already booked then I am planning to take them both out together to a show in February..

Mildred is currently top of the list for names but I am open to any suggestions ;)

I quite like Kazzs 'Nora' but Mildred is nice

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:38 PM
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mildred is nice not sure its her though can I have a think.......:)

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:39 PM
Hubby, who is absolutely smitten with her :roll: has just suggested Olivia as a name for her

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:39 PM
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mildred is nice not sure its her though can I have a think.......:)

Yes please do Kazz :D

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:43 PM
How about Holly or Ivy as she is a Christmas present better still how about Christie as is Christmas :) But she looks like an Olivia to me.

Moli
14-12-2006, 10:44 PM
I like Ivy, very unusual and seasonal...

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:46 PM
Whoa just saw your hubby has suggested Olivia too wow great minds there Fran - mystic Meg again I think,

dinahsmum
14-12-2006, 10:46 PM
My sister has a bantam named Ivy, after the lady at the check-out in Asda who cocks her head to the side and says 'Do you want a baaaaaaag?', like a hen looking at a beetle and crooning! :-D

PS Cracker?

14-12-2006, 10:47 PM
I like Olivia; my suggestion would be Matilda! Knew a wonderful cat by that name.....

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:48 PM
I like Matilda, although my all time fav name I am keeping a secret. ;)

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:49 PM
Okay okay I'll let you know how about Tasha, or Tabitha as she is a Tabby?

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:49 PM
I already have a cat called Matilda :-D

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:50 PM
Okay okay I'll let you know how about Tasha, or Tabitha as she is a Tabby?

Tabitha was top of my list with her being a tabby but the children and hubby weren't as enthusiastic :?

Moli
14-12-2006, 10:52 PM
Whats her pedigree name PK....

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:53 PM
Okay back to the thinking cap

Kazz
14-12-2006, 10:54 PM
Still think Nora with the ears

dinahsmum
14-12-2006, 10:55 PM
Or Fenny for the foxes!

Fran
14-12-2006, 10:55 PM

The breeders prefix and Constantine. So was going to call her Connie but that didn't go down well here either :roll:

Moli
14-12-2006, 10:58 PM
I went through Merlins pedigree, and he was named after his great, Grandad, Magic Merlin....
Maybe you will find a name in hers...

I'm tempted to make a bad choice here: remember the old song "Istanbul was Constantinople ..." you have to admit Istanbul, or Issy for short is, well, (different .. (snigger,,,couldn't resist it,,,:-D (

She is a real cracker.

Fran
15-12-2006, 12:03 AM
Things are not running too smoothly :roll: Maud, Claude, Clooney are fine with her. Porsha adores her :cool: Sylv and Matilda haven't met her yet but Bliss positively hates her :( I have never, ever seen Bliss grumble at anyone not even once but now she is grumbling at everyone not just the new kitten :?

Oh another name we are considering is Delilah..

Moli
15-12-2006, 12:06 AM
Poor Bliss is probably feeling her nose out of joint, sure she will get used to her eventually...

smudgley
15-12-2006, 12:07 AM
They'll all settle & get on in the end.:cool:

Bliss is probably feeling a bit "put out" by the new arrival, you know how sensitive cats are. :roll: They'll be best mates soon. :)

Mags
15-12-2006, 12:10 AM
It's early days Fran .......... sure they'll be great pals soon :D

Fran
15-12-2006, 12:10 AM
Yes, I guessed it was a jealousy issue but she is that bad she is grumbling at us :shock: So out of character :( I do hope she settles with her as we love Bliss to bits and I won't see her unhappy :(

How is the kitten reacting to Bliss' grumbling/hissing, etc? If she isn't too fazed by it, maybe Bliss will accept her eventully ......?

smudgley
15-12-2006, 12:16 AM
She will settle Fran.
Cats hate change & a new addition always causes fireworks / moods / trouble!
This time next week you'll be posting photos of them all curled up together at the next "cat committee meeting" :lol:

The trouble is - kitty will feel on edge (naturally with the changes) & Bliss will sense that.

She doesn't seem too fazed but she isn't pushing matters...she is interested in Bliss bt standing her ground as it were..

We've never really had this sort of problem before, Porsha and Bliss were accepted openly by the mogs as was Clooney when we got him. Matilda and Sylv are not really cat friendly so we keep them seperate to avoid any problems anyway. Both Bliss and Porsha are our babies but for some reason Bliss feels threatened where as Porsha is loving her new play mate??

Fran
15-12-2006, 01:02 AM
In bed now, The new kitten is layed under the covers between hubby and me :cool: The rest of the cats have been shut out of the room for the night. Bliss is on Em's high sleeper bed sulking :roll:

Mags
15-12-2006, 01:07 AM
Awww... how cosy! :D

Poor Bliss, I hope she accepts the baby soon Fran.....

dandysmom

Hope things go better tomorrow, and that Bliss doesn't feel so threatened/displaced....

Fran

Thanks Eileen, I have put an update in today's daily thread :)

Fran
15-12-2006, 09:29 AM
This thread was quite fast moving last night and I missed some of the name suggestions. Thank you for all your ideas there are some really good ones, I'll let you know what we finally settle on :D

Sweet
15-12-2006, 10:04 AM
Aww bless them all, I am sure all will be best mates soon x

Oh Fran, can't believe I missed this news last night!! How exciting and she is just gorgeoussssssssssssssss!!!!! I want one!!!!! I thought that I had enough with 5 now, but maybe there's room for one more :)!!

I'm sure that she'll settle in with Bliss and the others soon enough. Siamese are very highly strung anyway, so Bliss is probably just having a stroppy teenage moment!! Fingers crossed for them all.

More pics soon please!!!!!!!!!!
