Before anyone says anything about it, yes she is fat. We’re working on shedding a couple lbs 😅
Anywhos, I adopted this little cutie about a week and a half ago. Not the most active cat in the world but given her weight and the fact that she’s eight years old, I’m not surprised. A bit skittish of new things but super sweet. Very vocal and loves giving headbutts and making biscuits.
Open to other suggestions but I’m not a fan of typical pet names (Princess, Fluffy, Checkers (her previous name at the shelter), etc.). I like either absurdly human names like Kevin or Robert, or absolutely out-of-pocket names like Missile-launcher or something.
I'm a bit against giving pets human names. I am more in the Woof school of thought so I'm ruling out the human names listed for my suggestion. Cats just hear the first letter/sound of the name so short is good.
Cream? As in the fat cat that got the cream. She seems very happy with her new life and she got you as her cream. And you got the cream of the cats. A headbutting vocal cat is good. She loves you and is communicative with you. In just a week or so she has settled in fast.
My tabby is communicative. He politely says MRrmmh - excuse me - when he runs past me on the stairs. He does object when the humans go to bed too early and yowls loudly to get us to come down and keep him company but I like how vocal/communicative he is.
Good on you for picking an older cat to take care of as many people just want kittens.
I wouldn't be too worried about her weight as older cats fine down. I just spent a 1000 on a sudden weight loss of mine so I'm being a feeder. Turned out to be gingivitis so watch her gums. If you can I strongly recommend getting pet insurance but watch the terms and conditions - pet insurers can be sneaky. I changed from a good one to a bad one and regretting that.
Yzma (Sounds like eezma when you say it), she is the villainess on the "Emperor's New Grove", Disney Movie.
Yzma often dressed in black and white which matches your kitteh's colors and she was quite the character getting into all kinds of trouble. Loved her sidekick "Cronk" but kind of a guys name.
My daughter and I would watch that one over and over again.
My cat Allister spoke to your beautiful girl, and recommends that you ask her if she likes the name "Button". Allister tried that out with her and she rolled over, squirmed aound, purred, and was quite pleased accring to Allister.
Allister reminds you to PLEASE never let her outside for any reason.
Something like Katey. They hear and like K and T sounds. I have called mine just Kitty. She could hear me say Kiiiityyyy from 100 feet away and she would Meow back.
