View Full Version : We need a name
Ok folks. My Mrs called me yesterday morning asking me to meet her at her sisters. When I got there there was this little fluff ball that she wanted to take home with us.

It turns out that she was the runt of the litter that was born in a stables locally and was due to be drowned as the mothers owner could not "get rid of her" (some people make me sick >:( )
She is a real live wire and runs around constantly but is well trained and using a litter tray already.
This is where we need your help. We can't think of a good name for her so need some suggestions?

Fortune. She was very fortunate to have found you!!
Since you mentioned she's a live wire how about 'Sparkie'
she looks like she's actually smiling in the second picture! She's gorgeous!
Tabby cats can be very high maintenance, so give her lots of toys or she may start using your bike keys! A friend kept misplacing house and car keys, they realised it was their tabby when the caught her red 'pawed' carrying a set of house keys in her mouth.

I'm liking the Meowgi suggestion... :D
Give her a boy's name - it confuses the hell out of people for ages but the cat doesn't care! ;D My little female feline is called 'Bob' (Blackadder! ;D)
I'm likin Sprocket but the Mrs isn't so impressed :(
I think it's going to be a few names in a hat and decide from there
Will keep you posted...... ;)
My dear old Nan had a cat called "Socks" I think it's a brilliant name for a cat!! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
How about vermin, because all cats make a mess in other peoples gardens. As you can guess I'm not a cat lover, but each to their own.
Mine use my garden - I make sure there is an area well raked so they can have a dig around!

I definitely like 'Sprocket' [smiley=thumbsup.gif] Suits her! :) I'd try and persuade the Mrs...... ;)
Sprocket it is [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
The Mrs warmed to it and started calling her Sprocket and it's stuck ;D
Thanks folks

Glad 'Sprocket' has a name, don't worry about the weird looks you'll get when visiting the vets, my two are Bodie and Doyle :-[ and there's a woman at the vets who calls her cat pancake, apparently it was hit by a car as a kitten, it wasn't hurt thank goodness.

Quick update on Sprocket folks.
She lives up to her name....

Even the vet loves her name ;D
She's still a real live wire and now has great fun diving in and out of the cat flap at high speed :D
Best thing we ever did and she is great fun and not at all scared of the bikes???
Awwww, She's still a cute looking cat, thanks for the up date on her paleblue, can't wait to see what my cats will think of me having a bike ;D , have told them they might be taken to the vet on it, that should show em who's the boss in my household, at least I won't hear them meowing :D
looks just like my cat Zabimaru when he was a cute kitten and not a psychopath

Aw cool name at least you went with a biker theme too, really cute moggie too :)
We've got 2 cats and 2 bunnies, the bunnies took the bike theme, Suomy and Arai with Suomy being the loon who chases the cats around the house !
:-[ The scratches will be sorted over the winter ;D
Bad news folks.
Sprocket developed breathing difficulties yesterday and we rushed her to Drove Vets late last night to be told she has a heart defect and fluid on her lungs. The vet decided the best thing would be to keep her in last night to go on oxygen and medication to reduce the fluid on her lungs.
We received a call from the vet at 8:30 this morning to say that it was too much for her little body and she passed away this morning at 7am.
RIP Sprocket.
You were a little whirlwind of life taken away from us too soon and far too young :'(
