Adopting strays gets one major Karma goodness.
Someday when your soul is being weighed by Anubis against a feather, don’t be suprised if Bast sneaks a paw in to turn the scales in your favor.
Steele ?
Pavo makes me think of Parvo 
What about Paloma? Dove is like a fancy turkey! She is so beautiful and gray, my folks had a kitty named Gray Malkin (from Shakespeare). Extra bonus points for being the name of the street for Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. Anything with silver (Silverbells? it’s near Christmas too) or argent would be a huge plus!
You’re right. Pavo is out. I really like Paloma though! Ahhhh…so many kitties, so little time.
Based on those criteria, your kitty should be named Gloria Gaynor.
She belted out the song, “I Will Survive.”
Ooooh! I like that one, too!
Update:
She’s in the house since the vet gave her a clean bill of health, velcro’d to the carpeting under my bed. Little Miss Bitchypants is stalking her like paparazzi on Heather Mills. You could cut the kitty tension with a knife!
We might name her Graycie. Kinda cute, no?
But Little Miss Bitchypants has already named the new kitty “Bait”!
Graycie works too.
I like Graycie!
It has such an urban feel to it all.
If that fails, LaQwerty could do.
That’s what I would have named Smokey if I’d waited long enough for her to show me her personality
How about Graysington Steele? ('cause I kinda like Steele given the circumstances)
But has she walked across **Kalhoun’s ** keyboard yet?
Hold kitten in inverted position with tail toward you.
Gently pull tail down exposing private areas.
When viewed from that perspective, boys display a colon while girls display an exclamation point.
Kalhoun, your foundling looks like a Russian Blue. Does it have green eyes?
We got our first 2 cats from the animal shelter (RSPCA for the locals), and then the Blue from a vet. One of the shelter kittens was the smartest kitten ever, the other was, um, challenged. The Blue had been handed in to the vet as a stray. He was just the most characterful animal.
If it is a Blue, I suggest Rasputin for a boy (Raspy) or Svetlana for a girl (Lana).
And, WELL DONE.
She is definitely a “she.” She has amber eyes and she’s all legs…looks more like a colt than a kitten at this point.
The name “Graycie” isn’t cutting it so much with Mr. K. He wants something more inventive. So for the time being, she’s “Extremely skinny little gray girl kitty.” She’s starting to warm up to the other kitties. She shared a nose-kiss with Fats Domino and didn’t back down from Ms. Bitchypants during a recent Hissy Fit.
And she hasn’t actually typed yet, but she’s up on the desk for the first time. The typing will commence soon!
How about Ulu? It’s a cute little gray steel cutting implement and it’s fun to say.
Is that YOO-LOO or OO-LOO?
I looked it up, but no matter…it didn’t make Mr. K whoop or hollar. I kinda liked it!
I come back with “Destiny”, which could be shortened to “Dessa” or “Des”, or “You Stupid Little Fucking Cat Stop Complaining And Using My Goddamned Calves as Scratching Posts, You’re Not A Lion On The Fucking Serengeti, So Get OVER It!”
I think that last one has a nice ring to it.
That’s our pet name for her. We need something more formal! 
I just looked at her picture again and how about Norrin Radd, aka the Silver Surfer? She’s quite silver and I bet she’ll be near you helping you surf the net.
Plus it’s a cool name that doesn’t sound too masculine.
Well, mommy’s little darling caught her first mouse (and killed it dead, thankuverymuch). She’s definitely a keeper! We’re thinkin’ “Scout.” I’m liking it more and more. Still not locked in, so any suggestions are still under consideration.
