1. Lorien, that is one precious little black kitten! Your
photos are wonderful, and it looks like your bad boy, Pip, is having a great time teaching LBK (little black kitty) the ropes. Here's hoping they have a lifetime of fun and mayhem. Sorry I can't think of a good name for him.

2. Somebody should caption that bellyrub pic.
It looks like someone's about to lose some fingers.

What a great thing you did. He's beautiful.

For the name, I think Zephyr is good. That way you've got Pip and Zep.

Cool.

3. WHAT A CUTIE!!!
While I like the name Atticus, I know that you are a Shakespeare fan..and Caliban is one of the few black characters that Shakespeare created.

5. Well, I've started calling him "Atticus Pyewacket"
and I'll see what sticks, lol! "Pip and Pye" sounds kind of cute together. Pippin and Merry would be the natural match, but he just doesn't look like a "Merry"(I picture more of a bi-color or tabby for that name). I don't know how you do it with-is it five cats?-and a dog! That's a lot of litter, food and flea treatments! But we'll manage...:-)

7. I like Pyewacket !

Is that a reference to the children's book or from that old movie (can't recall the name, with Kim Novak)?

8. Bell, Book and Candle. Fun movie. I think James Stewart and perhaps Roddy McDowell were in it too.

10. All of the above:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyewacket_(disambiguation)

He's already starting to come to his name. I also call him "smudge" when he's really hard to see, lol!

9. It does get a bit hectic around here sometimes...
But as you must know, it is usually so much fun that it is worth it.
