Huh.

Livejournal ate my "I have a kitten!" entry. How annoying.

So, yeah. I have a kitten. She/he/it is a scardycat. I have yet to determine a name. Any suggestions, before I end up calling her/him/it 'kitten' for the rest of her/his/its days?

Name it Bono! :D

But Steve's dog is already called Bono! I don't want to cause confusion or anything. Besides, it's really more of a Larry, what with always hiding. :)

um, try babynamer.com, and look up words meaning afraid.. *snicker* ..or you could name it cat. kitten. katze. neko. *snicker* mine wouldnt tell me her name, and i ended up naming her niko.

Heh. Maybe I'll do that. Except I'm pretty sure I'll end up using a famdom-related name. I'd call it Josh or JC if I was sure it's a boy.

Maybe i should call it 'Lola'.

*grin* Yoj on kitty! *bounces and does the kitty dance*

Give her another day or two, and let her have a chance for her personality to develop some more. Then worry about naming her. [I do like Lola though.]

The problem is he/she/it is hiding under the kitchen cupboard and won't come out when i'm looking. (I know she can come out, she's eating the food I'm leaving.) So there's not much personality to go by. <g> I think i'll stick with Lola.

*sings* Looooooo-ooollllaahhh!

Um. *ahem*

Anyways, as has been mentioned, Lola's gender will become apparent soon enough. Hopefully, Lola will warm up to you, too. [Poor skittish kitty.]

When I got my first kitten, I was told it was a "she" and I named it Ziggy. After a few months it became well, um, apparent that she was in fact a he. But fortunately Ziggy is a unisex name, so I never had to change it.

Lola is a lovely name, though. And if it turns out to be a boy, well, maybe you could call him LoJo or Joe or ... just keep calling him Lola. :-D

That was the idea, yeah, to keep calling him/her Lola no matter what the actual gender. Cause I always think of cats as female anyway. ^_^

Weirdly enough, the first thought I had was "Bono!" The second thought I had was, "No, that's Steve's dog."

Um, how soon would it be possible to determine the kitten's gender? And, you know, you could use JC, since it could potentially be a female name too. (Jaycee type o' thing.)

Well, see, my parents have a cat as well, and her nipples were feel-able from pretty early on. So I'm assuming that, as Lola has no nipples, she's a boy.

(And yes, I will stubbornly refer to Lola as her and she. Even though I'm fairly sure she's a tomcat. Whatever. I'm odd.)

Usually, I refer to all animals as "it", whether I know their gender or not. On other occasions, all dogs are male and all cats are female. i.e. I'm odd too.

I've had my cat three years and his name is still Kitten...

See, I'm trying to be original. :p
