Neighbor across the street has a litter to re-home so we're doing our part!

No name yet, TBH, not even 100% sure on gender, they have a female looking face, but that doesn't mean much at 2 months. LOL.

Don't take her for granite.

It always takes me a few days trying to discover their personality. It’s an important thing. Rather than choosing a name, I feel like I learn who they are and the name becomes organic. Congrats!

Name her Safety.

I dunno why, but my roommate is babbling Safety in my ear.

Maybe she's meant to be good luck 🤞

She can dance if she wants to.

I was just rewatching Midsomer Murders and there's a Russian Blue cat - KillMouski.

Moodles (idk if this means anything, I just made it up)

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cute but moodle is an online university learning platform in my country.

[–] JetpackJackson@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

Ah drat. I knew it sounded familiar but was too lazy to search it lol

"Precious" was our evil, psycho, flying cat, oh, 40 years ago now.

She looked like a normal cat, but had a blood lust that would not be contained. In this pic, if you look just past her outstetched paws, you can see the bull fly she was chasing.

[–] pacoboyd@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The fact you caught this pic with a camera from 40 years ago (without burst frames) is pretty dang cool.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

It was easy, the fly was circling the living room and she'd leap into the air every time it was over her head. She had to have done it 15, 16 times in a row.

The hard part was not knowing if I got the shot until the film was developed.

Definitely a Derek, I'm a great fan of giving pets regular names.

New fave sub!

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Call him, "Sir John Lennon, officially knighted by Queen Victoria in 1988", or "88" for short.

Floof is already taken by our 3rd cat, whose proper name is Lorelei but, I mean...

fluff, just to be confusing.

[–] blazeknave@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Sweetest one! Omg

can confirm, that this is in fact a cat,

I vote we name it kat.
