We’re launching an on-demand kitty litter box cleaning and refreshment service, think of it like Uber for Kitty Litter. Can you think of a fun catchy name for it? Bonus points if the .com and @handle are available (though it’s not necessary).

CatMaid is great but it’s definitely not available (listed as for sale).

It doesn’t look like [freshfeline.com](http://freshfeline.com) has been owned since 2013.

And, may I say, I hope that some day, I have the sufficient income & your business venture has the sufficient success for my wallet to meet your service providers. May fortune smile down upon both of us.

Was thinking something like catsy or kitsy (with various alternate spellings - ie, ey, ee, etc) but none are available. Trying to combine cat or kitten with courtesy.

Best I could find was [felitsy.com](http://felitsy.com). Or [flitsey.com](http://flitsey.com), or [flitsee.com](http://flitsee.com). Flitsy is unfortunately taken. Feline LITterbox service…

Any name you can’t say out loud in a commercial is a big no-no.

IMO made up words don’t work. It’s got to be unambiguous and obvious to spell.

Otherwise copycats (heh) spring up named for the nearby spelling mistakes. If you’re Amazon you can afford to send your army of lawyers after them. If not, not.

I’m sure the trademark team at Lyft would disagree. (OK, not Uber, but their biggest competitor).

Catboxsters - The logo could be a kitty driving a Porsche.  
Catboxers - Two kitties in a boxing ring

How much are people willing to pay for this service? Seems like the costs involved in driving to and from a call would eat up a huge portion of the gross (heh) profit.
