Congratulations on your new kitten. Shan-cat says “Meow.” We used to have a black-and-white named Sundance, but that was because we had an orange tabby named Butch when we got him. You could always name her Mudpuddle. ---

5 cats sounds like a good number. Just be sure they don’t start simultaneous litters, or things will get out of hand really fast! I know. ---

Congrats! How about Parker, since she was found in a parking lot? I envy you! About the only animal we don’t have is a cat. I’d love to get one, but we’re not too sure about the dog. Enjoy her! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-new-kitten/95000.md?page=1)
