Words with Kittens


I have come up with a fun idea to name kittens.  I have no idea if it will work, but I want to give it a shot.   I thought about coming up with a name for mom and then seeing how many names we could get out of that, but with four girl names and a boy name I wasn't sure I could come up with a name for mom that would work - and besides looking at mom tonight I heard the name Betty.. so Betty she will be.

So, the challenge if you choose to accept it.  Come up with some names using these letters:

tailsfromthefosterkittens

Lets see what we can come up with!! :)

Speaking of Betty.. Last night when I went down to feed them I saw her entire front foot sticking out from under the door not moving.  I was a little fearful that it was stuck but when I touched it she wiggled it and put it back.  This is what she does when I open the door..
Doesn't she have a cute thumb?
There is also a cute kitten story because there is no photo.  See the set up below?  Well one of the black and white girl kittens wanted to see if she could climb "stairs" with her Halloween cat suit on.. You know that arched back sideways thing fur sticking every which way?  Well it was a riot to see her try to jump from one level to the other sideways.  Reminded me of when I wear high heals and I have to walk up or down a flight of narrow stairs.
Of course once she got up there was nothing of interest so after all that work she simply turned around and ran away.. Total ADD kittens for sure.

    Nice idea :)

    How 'bout 'Tina', 'Miki' or Nina.

    You can probably tell I like short, cute sounding names (my cats are Lilly, Molly and Gigi).

    I can think of quite a few from the letters available.

    'Lisa'...'Erika'
    'Matt' or 'Henri' - 4 the boy
    ...hmmm, or 'Rita', 'Bettina' (a mini betty. Betty's 'mini me').

    'Teri' ....'Karol', 'Katie','Sara'
    or 'Sarah' but they uses the 'a' twice. How 'bout 'Faith'.

    I wanna think of a longer one!
    'Martha' uses the 'a' twice too.
    ....'Thelma'

    'Tim' or 'Tom' for the boy, or 'Theo'.

    You could make some of those longer to have 'Tomlin' or 'Katelin'

    ooo, 'Katerina' (has two 'a's again.)
    ....'Karoline'

    Ok ok ...I'll stop now, I'm getting carried away here.

    They are such sweeties and mama Betty is so pretty :)

  8. Can't help with the names.... I struggle enough with my own. :)

    Love the add comment - there are a pair of black kittens at the shelter right now - about 4 months old. Total add....the short haired one was running around in circles, hit a toy, ran around, smacked his sister, ran some more and then stopped like he had NO IDEA what he was doing. Makes me laugh...

  16. When I think of Betty, I think of my mom. But she had 3 boys and two girls so those names wouldn't work. But Betty also makes me think of the Flintstones...again not sure if I could come up with enough names from that show.

    Good luck with the naming!

  20. Hey Connie.

    It's me, Lilly from FB, ...ie: Marc in Switzerland :)

    I think I managed to get a picture next to me like everyone else :)

    ....One day my cats are gonna blog on the blogosphere too. But first they need me to work out just how to do that! It looks so complicated. I only just started reading about it but I'm gonna work at it. I'm glad you joined FB. I never even commented on the blogosphere before that but I had been a lurker for ages.

    Anyways, just to confuse things more I have a 3rd name now, Red Puff. Because of Red's poofy floofy red fluff he became my big red puff :)
