Re: How did your cat get their name?


my OH had never had any pets before so I let him choose. He teaches TaiChi so he named Lao Tzu, Confucious and Mencius after the Chinese philosophers of the same name and Professor is named after the man that started the TaiChi form that he teaches and practises - Professor Cheng Man Ching.

I named the dogs ...

Do you know I don't really recall but I think it was because Cleo looked so feminine and daintyCleo suited her down to the ground as a kitten I think the other choice I thought of was Rosie but she became Cleo as soon as I saw her.

Oscar was called Flint foir all of 3 days or so but it did not suit him at all and he became Oscar it suited him to a tee.

So I imagine I just liked the names like most people.

Re: How did your cat get their name?


I picked the cat (well, he chose me, but I picked the breeder) so better half decided on the name - Rover. He has a sense of humour. He lives up to the name as much as he can. Jumped a fence when BH was walking him and roved around the garden behind, much to BH's displeasure. Nothing that a piece of turkey couldn't fix.

Re: How did your cat get their name?


Scamper (ginger semi longhair, childhood cat) : named by me, age 6. Su-ling (sealpoint Siamese)" named after a charscter in a book I was reading. Sultan (Aby) because he was regal and dignified even as a kitten. Misty(dilute torbie): name suggested by a friend & it appealed to me. Dandy (Singapura): after his Massachussets birthplace...full name Yankee Doodle Dandy. Patches (tortie) : named when I got her. (Princess) Leia (dilute torbie): named when I got her.
