I found this teeny guy on a sunset walk, he limped out of a ditch into the road in front of me (pic 5 is the night i found him). Ive named so many cats before but this one has been so hard, theres so many options with such a unique coat! Ive tossed around Cinder/Cyndaquil, Zuko, Kairo, Aurum, Calaver (Calaverite), Cocoabean, Walnut, Umbra, Acorn, Toast, Cinnamon, Roux..... I need help!

Found a sweet little stray outside. I’m unsure what to do, so I’ll take her to the vet first.

She’s soooooo cute!!!

I’ve had this munchkin for about a week and can’t decide on anything! We’ve thought of Pippa, Mousse, and Magma but nothing has stuck.

I thought something to do with the split face would be cute but am not a fan of Harley/Gemini. Need suggestions!!

Edit: Thank you everyone for the suggestions! We decided to go with Moose :-).

We are getting a male cat next week. He’s dark grey and my children have decided they want to call him Dusty.

I am also getting a secret second cat as a surprise for everybody. This one is a girl and I’m just stumped on names!

Any suggestions?

Name My Cat - male He needs a name, found behind our garage all alone.

He was probably around a week old when we found him, didn't even have his eyes open yet. He's already feisty and very vocal. Now that he's eyes are open he follows me around like a little duckling.

I am struggling to think of a name big time lol.

ETA: for those commenting about mama, when I can spare the money I will do TNR. My local humane society charges for renting the traps, plus the pay/vaccination, and also adds on costs for additional treatments like fleas and deworming (plus more if the cat has health concerns, is in heat, or pregnant) and I can't afford what they're asking at the moment for a cat that's not mine. I do plan to put the money aside when I can but I also have my own animals (now including the kitten) and my children to prioritize. Again, when I can, I will. But not right this moment.

I will update when we picked a name, right now I think it's between Pumpkin and Lucky.

UPDATE: His name is Lucky. I added more photos in the comments, too.

UPDATE 2: A lovely redditor is covering the cost of tnr for Mama Cat. I have the trap set now and as long as she cooperates her spay appointment is on the 24th!

This kitten was crying alone on the street under a lorry last night, decided to rescued her. She is very sweet and affectionate. She also never hiss even once since she is rescued. Name ideas would be appreciated.

For first photo context, she refused to be contained when my friend was trying to give her back to me after he babysat 😭

She's loud and a cuddle bug, loves to play, sit on my shoulder, meet new people, and I plan on having her as an outside adventure buddy. She's a weird hot mess but I love her. I like silly, unhinged names. my name ideas were

- fish

- pickle

- tuna

- churro

- sushi

- megatron

I actually really like tuna but I want an original name at the same time
