BROKIE & SAYIF (R.I.P. - 12th of June 08)

(1/46) > >>

j.U.d.E.:
Yesterday, I finally went to this friend of a friend's street were for a while now there was this young cat running around, being fed by whoever felt like it. The cat is quite young (not much older than 1 year, I'd think), slim and a short-hair tabby cat (light and dark brown). Living so close to the street, it was only a matter of time for it to be run over. The people there said that she had kittens, but that someone had killed them..

Anyway, yesterday evening I get to that place and two kids were playing in front of the house, feeding the cat.. Turns out that the kittens are NOT dead and that they are happy and healthy three little ones! Old enough to walk around, it wouldn't have been much longer for them to be killed as well.

What to do?! I decided to take them all four and to bring them to my place! And I did. There, they looked around my flat for half an hour or so (I won't let them into the garden just yet) and then they all fell asleep on my bed! C.U.T.E.!!

The little ones look like their mother, just a little darker. I haven't checked yet, but I think they are all male. I will keep the mother and one kitten for good, but hope to find a permanent home for the other two.

I have started calling the mum 'Brokie' (I hope I won't have to explain to people where I got THAT name from!  :laugh: ), but I can't think of a name for the kitten I'm going to keep.

That's now your job here! Can you help me find a BBM name for it? I don't mind/care if it's a female/male sounding name, but I prefer a gender-less name. Also, I don't like human first names. So, if anyone has an idea, I'd be happy to consider it!

I don't have pictures yet, but hope to get some very soon.


This is not my kitten, but it looks like the ones I have

Thank you!

Awww... that's so cute... that family is very lucky having you look after them. A good deed...

As to the genderless, non-human BBM name?

Twister? A play on Jack of course...

Ummm... *scratches head*. I'll post more if I can think of any. This kinda thing ain't ma strong point!

Jude -

What a lovely thing for you to have done.  It's gonna be a lot harder to find names if you want them to be genderless.  You could try Lil' Darlin' or Junior (as in Alma Jr.).  But if you didn't care about the gender aspect, there are so many possibilities. 

I'd love to see pics of the kitties!

j.U.d.E.:
Thank you for your suggestions!   :)

I forgot to say, but 'Cigar Butt' is out of the question too! ;D

And actually, since I'm not a native English speaker, I'd like a name that doesn't 'mean' anything..if you know what I mean.

Like, I don't know.. "Proulx" or something..  :-\

Hello Jude --

OK, this may be goofy but I am very tired... how about Moon, since, as a tabby, all the white has been pawed out?   ;)

On a more serious note, GOOD FOR YOU for helping these animals in need.  I am involved in cat and dog rescue, and it can be very gratifiying work.  You meet great animals and great people too. 

keep us posted....  :)  -- Alec
