I’d go with something short and Norse. I saw you other cat was Loki, so the first thing I thought of was Thor.

He looks exactly like my cat The Road Warrior(Roadie, for short) did, at that age.

Chester popped into my mind at the first pic, too. He’s adorable, especially that little pink nose of his.

Awwwwwwwwww!!! That is **one cute kitty**! The first picture looks like it ought to be a poster or card or wallpaper or something. I like Bartleby and Otis and Bobby.

I’ve been to this damn thread at least three times to look at him. And I’ll probably be back before I go to bed.

He’s a Bart. Bart Bart Bart Bart Bart.

Man, is he cute! How about “Butterscotch?” It might be a bit feminine, but tell him to grow a pair and deal.

Get him neutered before he starts throwing thunderbolts around.

I happen to love the name Bob for a pet, as I used to have a beloved dog by that name.

But when I saw that first pic of your adorable little kitty with that “don’t fuck with me” face, I thought “Clint Eastwood.”

But “Clint” just doesn’t roll off the tongue like “Bob” does.
