Now, where did I leave that?

The Name Game

As I mentioned, Linda sort of bypassed the No Vacancy sign hanging outside our door and brought home a mama and four babies to foster. Mama is too young, under the weather, has had too many changes in a short time, and has stopped caring for them, so the crew is being bottle fed. At two 1/2 weeks, they're a far more robust group than this Spring's litter(Pip & siblings), but just as adorable!

This is Bob (short for Bobcat):












Cleo:
And these two cuties are nameless for the moment:
That's where you all come in! We need names for these bottom two babies; although they may end up with name changes when they find their forever families, we need to keep records, have names entered in the shelter's database and hold conversations with them without calling 'em 'hey you'. No prizes, alas, just fun...Post your comment below, tell us which name is for which of the two, and on Thursday we'll put all the names in a bowl and announce the winners. Thanks so much!

Boys or girls? Pippa. Smokey, Starry, or Honey, how could you noty have vacancies for them? Those who love and care for any animal have a wonderful heart . Greetings from Jean.

Ooooh...such cool name ideas so far! No idea yet if they are boys are girls (hard to sex this young). @ Nancy...2 dogs, 5 cats, 3 chickens & assorted tropical fish (all of whom except the chickens were rescues over the course of 16 years). In fact, cat # 5 (Pip) was from Linda's last batch of foster kittens. Our role is to raise them to be able to go to other loving homes...Yeah, you can usually squeeze one more in, but Pip was the last we'll be adding for awhile!

Sunny for little pink nose, and Tigger for the other cutie.

Minstrel (Min for short) the top one and Ygraine or (Ig for short) the lower one

Shoney for the little grey and white one - means Dog in Inuit, was the name of our grey and white cat, my daughter's birthday present on her 11th birthday and Shoney lived for 18 years and filled our lives with such love.
The tiger should be Oliver Wendell, a very dignified name the little one.

Willow and Autumn. They are so sweet.

How about Oonagh for a girl, and Ubbo for a boy? One is a Goddess and the other name I found while doing my ancestry it belonged to a grandfather from Sweden...Ubbo Ubbo! Ha, ha ha! A very old Grandfather from the 1400's!

Great name ideas from everyone! :)

Adorable little fur-babes they are!
