Well when we first got our cat we went through a whole lot of names. Tauro, Twinkle, Sox, Trolley, Abraham. We must have had atleast 50 names we thought were good finally we settled on tuxedo for our cat. We just call him tux for short. This is because he looks like he's wearing a tux. What was your cats names or suggestion for names?

I've had a number of cats over the years and what I thought were cute names. When my boys were young, we had a black and white that they named Oreo, and an orange one that they named Toots. One of them later had a black and white guinea pig and since Oreo was already taken, he settled on Hydrox (another black and white cookie). The cat I have now is named Shirley. Two little kittens wandered into my yard over a year ago, both females, so we tried to come up with names that were a 'pair'. After some thought, I came up with 'Laverne and Shirley' after the popular (albeit silly) television show of some years back. Unfortunately Laverne disappeared and was never seen again. Shirley is still around and is the best mouser.

My Cats name is Terry. I've read somewhere that Cats listen to their names better if the name has an "Y" at the end. Maybe you can call your Cat Tuxy?

ooooo cool. We actually looked into naming our cats something in a different language but the online converters aren't very reliable. I love asian names they have something really cool about them
