[Closed] How many cats - and names?

None but all the cats around here are called "stop sh*tting on my lawn you maingy b*stard"..

none but the neighbours visits several times a day 🙂

Chole and Fudge.

Chole was Fudge's Mum, but they hated each other - both dead now, thank God.

2 here.

Mickey and Millie. Don't know why, that's what they were called when we got them and they answer to their names.

Usually referred to as 'Bloody Cats'.

They do there business in our own garden too, which is just lazy.

Tilly (Family cat, died when I was away at university and my parents didn't even tell me.)
Bailey (Family cat, adopted by me when my parents started neglecting him and then treacherously outed themselves as heartless, evil dog people, which explains a lot.)
Steve and Deeley (Sisters, Steve was a runt and a complete nutter, she went missing aged 3. Deeley was the best cat ever but she was run over last summer and I'm still really sad about it 🙁 .)
Marsha (Still with us, lovely but a bit stupid.)
Emma (Adopted but didn't get on with Marsha at all, and had to be rehomed.)

Also numerous foster kittens and their mums.

Tolly (Short for Tolstoy)
Tally (Short for Natalya)

Both Russian Blues. Little gits.

There is no honour in cats.

None but all the cats around here are called "stop sh*tting on my lawn you maingy b*stard"..

One called Frank didn't want him but didn't get a choice he moved in as a kitten just walked in the patio door no one claimed him after months of posters saying "is this your cat?" that was ten years ago. Wouldn't be without the moggy now.

Cost thousands as well in food and vets bills over the years and yet I regret none of it.

Claude, Ginny, Dexter and Ed.

One called Cat. In my defense it just turned up one day, so I have no idea what it's name is.

My brother has one called Catty. He doesn't have an excuse.

I took in two cats when I lived in China. I inherited the first, XiaoP ('Little Pete'), who'd gone half feral after being locked in a basement for months. The second was a kitten wandering round the area where we lived (Bobo, a contraction roughly meaning 'Little Persian'). I really miss my two little guys, but they're well looked after and a lot luckier than most Chinese cats.

Che Guevara
Nelson Mandella
Bobby Charlton.

Bobby has basically moved in with someone else down the road, so has become an occasional visitor. The mercenary little sod.

And this morning either Che or Nelson have upped their game by replacing the usual mouse or vole gift, left at the back door, with a big fat hamster. 😯

I kid you not. Where the hell have they got a hamster from? I suspect there may be repercussions to this!

There is one in our house that belongs to my other half - personally, I hate the thing.

It is called Harry and did have a brother called Lloyd but he met an untimely end on a road. I didn't mind him too much, but the one we're left with is massively annoying...very aloof, whinges a lot and is generally a pain.

Bobby's new owners have lost a hamster?

Another one called Cat, short for little bastard.

Pussy aka Fatso, "the effing cat has peed again" and "when is she going to die"
Socks was her daughter, mad as anything but died a couple of years ago (weak heart) I still miss her but I suspect the local fauna is very thankful

This is a warning of what happens when you let toddlers name pets, two words you can't allow your kids to google without parental controls 😯

We have a fleet of cats, three indoors ones who are now ex-pat-cats after moving from Edinburgh to Germany.
Ben, Ginger and AKA Nutter
Eddie, Ex stray, just walked in and despite us castrating him, has stayed for the last 6 years.
Tigger, Inherited from the B&B next door

Plus, two living in our garage
Kitten, because it is a kitten
Mum-cat, because its kittens mum

Then there are the two from next door.... and across the road there are another 5 ...

Whiskey - don't remember how he died (old age hopefully)
Blacky - got locked in a barn and ate rat poision
Jack - old age/kidney failure
Prawn - stroke
Alice - old age/kidney failure
Taz - 14+ and currently pee-ing on the bathroom carpet regularly..
Pisci (pronounced pesky)- youngest and most pesky! She raids all the locals bbq's the morning after & come back with black feet and lumps of meat or eats anything left out for the birds!

Follow Bob Mortimer on Twitter - he often has cats names for sale. £8 usually. Sargent Walnuts being my favourite.

Arwen - Brown rosetted Bengal

Marble - Snow Marbled Bengal

Merlin - Snow Rosetted Bengal, all of the others hate him as he is a little bastard, attackes everything including the missus and kids at times but loves curling up next to me on the sofa for a cuddle.

Two-
Muscat, small grey girl, ex-feral; cute but always afraid.
MacGregor, 9kg of male ginger attitude. Often referred to as the ginger minger. Bullies the wee one and eats pheasants & hares for fun.

One , moon caine called Loki ( nicknamed Loki cokey) normally gets called Cokehead even when calling him home ,neighbours love him too

I've got a Loki too, before Loki became a movie character.

Also got a Sprocket, he's more expensive than any bike i've ever owned, by a factor of 10. must have no more than 2 lives left. run over, fell off a roof, blocked gut, shot in the head etc etc. he's either stupid or hard as nails. not sure which.

We have 3, two came with the other half and one we took in last xmas from the snow. Edward, Hollie and Peter.

Smudge tabby British shorthair (aka stupid). Like to get herself into draws/cupboards and often takes a few hours to find her. Completely chilled - happily stares down our 4month old psycho patterdale terrier and sleeps with our border terrier.

Domino silver spotted British shorthair. A bit scaredy and spends most of her time next door on sofa of 75yr old neighbour.

Brother & sister, found as kittens abandoned by the side of a river near Bath. They cannot stand each other 😆

Just one named Smokey, he came from the cats home and had grey fur with brown swirls that looked like smoke, but they grew out so now it just as though Mrs Ed couldn't think of anything original 🙂 he has decided he likes me as he's generally a blokes cat, when he goes there won't be any more in the house because there can only be one

One, that came as a team with my Wife. He's called Figaro.

You know how I somehow always manage to win the 'how many bikes?' threads? Well, my lil' sis' is pretty much the same . . . only with cats 😆

Oh, and I have just one cat . . . Catty Jacques, aka Hattie

[img] [/img]

My last two were Alto and Stratus ('cos they were grey).

Merlin and Megan both domestic, but we have a new wild feral that is taking ownership to our garden, we have named him Tigger, a huge long haired spotted tabby that only comes near when he is hungry a real bruiser of a cat!

Six at the last count - last two were acquired despite my words "over my dead body".

Names

Pip
Peg
Nell
Nancy
Bob
Betsy

What's the connection with the names ?

Current Ferrets:

Buttons
Mother
EP (extended Persephone)
Mikka
Panzer
Jacob aka Cobbles
Anastasia
Dark Star
Keva aka Pockets
Star Buck ( who lives up to her name, hates the world and picks fights with everything including our Staffs)

We have had but sadly gone;
Teela, Canth, Third, Kahless long ferret, Romulus, Remus, Cassiopeia, Lex, Fayd, Trinity, Neo, Storm, Bronson, Mouldy, Fungus, Weena-wu, Persphone, Bomber, Husker, Hera, Conrad Black, Shiva, Vladimir, Leto, Mystique, Helva, Morticia, Wednesday, Thor (the worlds most po faced ferret), Jayne Cobb, Coop, Vinnie, Martok (probably missed a few rescues)

Called my tuxedo look-alike Mcat

Where do some of you store all your cats?!

Firstly acquired Pablo and Petal (aka knuckle-head when I refer to her), a mother-son duo from a foster home. Is it an unwritten rule that foster pet names can't be changed? As of last week, Petal decided that purring at full volume at 4.30am was a fantastically good idea.

Then acquired Maceo from the SIL. Maceo thinks it's enormously entertaining to screech like a demented parrot at feeding time. The other two stare at him quietly, slowly retracting their claws.

Joey, Archie and Guinness(aka Colin.

Rudee Wuzshel von Schnurr (don't ask).

Family cats:

Whisky - he was ginger, my dad named him
Pauline (she was black, my sister named her)
Koshka -he was found in the middle of a stream by a black lab. He was only weeks old and caught people attention due to his spitting at the dog. Managed to get run over. Twice. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Fishface (yup, my choice, because she looked like a fish) but mainly called Fishy. Died of leukaemia or something related at a ripe old age. Was often spotted eating rabbits.
Wes(sie) - the ex's cat, didn't grow much bigger than a kitten really. Named after Jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery. Another cancer/blood disease death, poor old thing.

Would love to get a cat, but probably not responsible enough. Plus I'd miss all the little garden birds.

Just the one, Mungo. But with one this size who needs any more?

my old cat died this year after 18 years he new me better than the other half miss him to death. 😥

Heston and Raymond.

Both girls.

Which was unexpected.

Especially as my wife chose them, and she's a vet.

Does she have gastronome leanings...?

2 in our house, both rescue cats.

Marley is the older one and went banzai mental when we got Buddy a year past September. We couldn't get near her as she was going for us. Very nearly had to rehome Buddy. But she calmed down and is back to being a highly strung princess.

She enjoys being around us and sleeps at my feet in winter, has been know to paw my face gently to wake me up or to let me know she wants to cosy in under my arm. Chases and eats moths, Sleeps on the spare bed or on top of sofa during the day. Knows where the tuna is, knows the sound of my car or the keys being jingled to indicate time to come in. Hates winter and hardly goes outside. Loves lying in the sun and hiding on top of the wardrobe out of harms way. Also likes a weekly investigation of the cupboards in the house. Took a liking to a wheel box about 2 years ago for sleeping in, it's still under the stairs for both cats use.. Bit worse for wear now!

Buddy we got as a kitten, daft as a brush and scared of everything and everyone apart from us, nobody else gets near him. Marley hated him at first but generally puts up with him now. Sleeps in the 3rd bedroom on a reclining chair when he isn't being a nuisance. Cute as a button, likes to wake us up at 6am everyday to get fed or to get out, if you don't wake up he jumps on you until u do! He is a simple character who falls off the window sill daily, chases the leaves blowing in the wind and head butts doors open, every night he brings his soft toy called "ducky" down to the kitchen the goes back up to his chair.. I'm guessing "ducky" must annoy him.

They generally get on ok now, they chase each other round the house, Buddy likes to sneak up on Marley then pounce on her tail, she bites his tail when he is eating so it's tit for tat. They look like butter wouldn't melt when they are both asleep on the spare bed.

Marley is also knows as skins, snarley, snarles barclay, pongles (wife's idea), fish face and toots.
Buddy is also knows as buddles, stinky, idiot, moron, snuffalufagus (breaths through his nose) and sir.

Know together as "the little bastards"

I was never a cat person but they are great and good company for my wife when I'm away working.. I really need to get a life after realising how sad that all sounds when I read it back! Bloody cats!

One...Grooverider. Gets called Groovy most of the time There was a Fabio but he went to another home as a kitten.

The first one was Cat, because it was a cat. The second one was Fat Cat, because it was bigger than Cat. The third one was Orange Cat, because it was orange.That's the thing about cats. They kind of name themselves.

This would probably have, excuse me, furred better in the Chat forum so I'm moving it.

1 = mittens

Yes!!

I wanted to call two of my cats Brockie and Det but the kids were having none of it.

I knew Scorpio quite well, but that is something that carries absolutely no cred whatsoever now.

Mungo is fantastic 🙂

We have two Jeff and George

Dr Octopus

We have a big fluffy black and white one called Wilikins or Puss Cat Will for short

Footflaps - they all look like cheeky monkeys!

Mavis - was left in the house by the previous owners with a note to say her name was Lucky.

Hates closed doors and will scratch the door until it's opened, will swipe your ankles when you walk past, will do it's best to trip you up and constantly after extra food. I'm hoping it will take the hint soon and move.

The human race would be doomed if cats had thumbs.

Brother and sister that we rehomed for a friend.
Jester, aka fat boy or big lad. He's a black version of Mungo and almost as big.
Sparky, aka sparkles. Average sized but looks tiny next to her brother.
They do get on generally but have been known to pull hunks of fur out of each other.
Jester has quite a lot of "aunties" who he visits which is great when we go on holiday because they are more than happy to feed them so no cattery required.
Still a dog person at heart but they have won me over more than I thought possible.

Two Devon Rex - Timothy and Archie. They are house cats and shit in their tray, not anyones garden. House stinks of catshit/piss 🙁
