CAT, you perverts. Now that I’ve got your attention… I’m getting a kitten on Friday. Gray with white stripes, and she needs a name! So, what should I call my pussy cat? ---

Rascal! (I always wanted to have a little grey and white kitty named Rascal.) Mr. Hameye! Tiddles! Clamknuckle! Clytemnestra! Agamemnon! Precious Roy! Grout! Sgt. Blind Kiwi Tarzan! Rum Tum Tugger! Jennyanydots! Macavity! Mungojerry! Rumpleteezer! Bustopher Jones! Madmartigan! Spoodley! Prickle! Jess Junior! Seriously, though, I think you should have your cat in your house and live with it a while before you name it. Get to know its personality, and an appropriate name will suggest itself. ---

Bah. Of course, the most appropriate name for a kitty is Velcro, because they stick to everything. I thought **everyone** knew that. 😛 ---

Schrodinger is a cool idea, but it kinda falls victim to the whole Frankenstein thing… the more appropriate name would actually be “Schrodinger’s Cat,” but then that’s just silly. Anyway, you should _definitely_ name your cat **Pablo**. ---

No, no, that should be **Phoebe** if it’s a girl and **Phoebo** if it’s a boy. ---

I find it very interesting that, while it has been noted that most threads have a views:posts ratio of about 20:1, this one’s ratio is only about 8:1 (137:17 at present, or about 8.06:1). In other words, even though it had a provocative subject line, relatively few people clicked on it who did not intend to suggest a name for your cat, i.e., they clued in immediately as to what the real subject was. Savvy message board, that. ---

Uh, that’s views : posts ratio, of course. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/name-my-pussy/126032.md?page=2)
