Princess Fluffy Butt need your help

[woodnymph_O]

so as not to thread jack. I have a new animal rescue here. She is about 5 weeks old an adorable little calico kitten, who has a horribly mangled leg. The wounds seem to be healing well and no sign of infection. Kitten appeared to be wild but was ever so happy to have people when she was fed and bandaged and now is a confirmed human lover. She is following us everywhere, as fast as she can go on 3 legs. However the problem is her name. If I don't come up with one by this evening I am afraid that my childrens choice of "Princess Fluffy Butt" will stick. Anyone have an idea to help her out. She deserves some shred of dignity

Every calico cat I've ever known has been called Callie. Personally, I think Princess Fluffy Butt is a brilliant name. Then again, the last cat I had was named Goofball, so maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

She's a cat.
She's walking dignity.
You can call her anything you like and it's not going to make one iota of difference to her.
She still remembers the time when she was lived in her own temple and was worshipped.
Her name is completely irrelevant in comparison to lossing all of that!

Read T S Eliot on the naming of cats.

Whatever you call her, you will never know her secret name.

PS. Edited to include the poem 'The Naming of Cats'.

The naming of cats is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter
When I tell you a cat must have three
different names.

First of all, there's the name
that the family use daily,
Such as Victor, or Jonathan,
George or Bill Bailey--
All of them sensible everyday names.
There are fancier names
if you think they sound sweeter,
Some for the gentlemen,
some for the dames;
Such as Plato, Admetus,
Electra, Demeter--
But all of them sensible everyday names.

But I tell you,
a cat needs a name that's particular,
A name that is peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he
keep up his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers,
or cherish his pride?

Of names of this kind,
I can give you a quorum,
Such as Munkustrap, Quazo or Coripat,
Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellyrum--
Names that never belong
to more than one cat.

But above and beyond
there's still one name left over,
And that is the name that you will never guess;
The name
that no human research can discover--
But The Cat Himself Knows,
and will never confess.

When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought,
of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular Name.

I went to see cats long ago , I do try to avoid naming cats such things as grizabella or rum tum tugger but in this case I might have to make an exception. As I remember it my now 9 year olds favorite characters were twin cats CALLICO called Mungojerie and Rumpleteaser . Rumpleteaser was the girl.
maybe she'd fit right in if we named her that, then I could call her Tease for short.
hehe

I like mojo jackson lol If i had a male I'd name it that. I always find boy cat names I love but girls seem to be harder.

I could offer you some my dad brought by for the kids, but the are called TOUNGE COLORING FIZZIES, so I'd beware. I have yet to pop one in my mouth.

He also gets called Halloween Jack (he's black and gold) Skeleton Jack (He's that skinny "foriegn" body type) and, of course nowadays, Jack Sparrow...
He's Jackie most of the time, except for when he's "Godammit Jackie, get outta there! Get off of there! Shit, somebody catch the vase before he pushes it off!"

Oops, this thread is going to merge into that other one!

well why not? hehe I'll go on and confess that the other feline in the house has the fabulous name "Donkey Eeyore." gotta love 2 yr olds naming em

 

[Stella_Omega]

My stepdaughters had standard poodles when they were young. The three-year old liked the name "Wassie" (She lisped) My husband loved the idea of a poodle named "Lassie' or Wassie" but- the wretched brats insisted on "Fluffy" in the end.

JohnnyDeppititis.

Hey, I resemble that remark!
He came to us named "Blackjack" but- we don't play cards...
HIs full name is "Leopardhaven's Mojo Jackson" registered and everything

More names for a foofy girl;
Bluebell
Peony
Rosie (a lot ofthings get named Rosie by me)
Petunia
And Rumpleteaser is a great name! I might have named Gris-Gris that, if I'd thought of it!

 

[TheEarl]

How about 'Isis'.

You could say after the Goddess, but I'd name my cat Isis after the main character from Iain Banks's Whit. Isis is so naive and fumbles around in the world, so childishly principled. Always reminds me of a tiny vulnerable kitten alone in the big bad city when I read it.

Doesn't matter what you call them. Cats will come or not at their plesure.

Princess Fluffy butt will undoubtedly get shortened to princess or fluffy or fluff. Humans are lazy that way.

Mine are:

Frin & Fra (sisters)
Lucy & ethel (sisters) now given away
and Snerf (gone to a better place).

Snerf's AKA name was blueprint, for all the blue ribbons she won before I got her. Snerf was a name devolved from sniffles, whoich she constantly had.

A cat will name itself, if you just give it time to show it's personality.
