Help me name this kitten
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 08:37 PM by Mz Pip
My son found this little guy. He was left by the fence of the elementary school where my son teaches. He's about 14 days old (I think.) I've been feeding him with a bottle and keeping him in a carrier with towels and a stuffed bear. He purrs when he eats.

BTW This is the first time I have tried to post a picture so if this doesn't work, the little guy is gray with white paws and tiny little ears.


THe picture is a few posts down...



...and I am not going to name him FEMA

6. Go to www.imageshack.us
Click "browse", find the image in your HD, double-click it (it will fill the input box with the image path), then click "host it".

By the way, edit that post, you gave out your real name by mistake.

29. There it is...how precious.
My kittys (long gone, old age got them) had these unusual names:
Chuckanut, (the name of a ridge in Washington State)
Hauntu, (Mischievous spirit(s) to a specific group of natives living in Brunei Malaysia.
Kunta Kitty/Punkin, Started out as Kunta Kitty after Kunta Kintay from "ROOTS" because the kitten was jet black. We liked the name but felt a bit racist for doing that and hurriedly changed his name to Punkin when our neighbor asked, our neighbor at the time is black, he found this very story hilarious when we told it to him later and thought we should have stuck with Kunta-kitty.
Ps: The name Perriwinkle just got shoutted up the stairs to me as a suggetion

15. perhaps a few more days without a name...
...will reveal a personality trait which may be suitable for naming.
for instance: Sojourn for a kitty who wanders, Zipper for one who moves fast, Rampage for that out of control kitten, Katrina for a girl kitty with bad potty habits, and etc. I asked for a name here in the DU lounge for a blue nosed male Pit-Bull puppy owned by my fave daughter. I got a lot of great suggestions over a 2 day period. One of those suggestions was AZUL. Azul is now a month old and that name is just perfect for him. When he does something we do not approve of Azul becomes Asshole... He answers to Azul but runs when he hears Asshole! Pretty smart little puppy, I would say.
btw. Azul has a new playmate: a jet black kitten, Azul adores the kitten, kitten is not sure what to make of Azul yet. Kitten has no name yet so I will be watching this thread for ideas as well! Good luck Mz Pip

27. The bottle thing is easy
The rubbing his butt with a cotton ball so he can pee is kind of annoying. Hope I don't have to do that much longer. Blech.

36. I was thinking of
Louie, for Louis Armstrong. But there are lots of terrific suggestions here.

Right now I'm calling him Little Shit. Can't really name him that.

37. little shit ...eh?
in German = wenig Scheiße
in Russian = небольшое дерьмо
in Spanish = poca mierda
in Portuguese - pouca merda
in French = peu de merde

I think pouca merda would work or just mierda .. sounds exotic. no?

:rofl:
