yeah...that is funny....we all have "doubles" out there in the world....lol.
Teddy because he's got the most fabulous teddybear fur.
that is hilarious...
I know, right? For example, last year she rescued a kitten and they couldn't decide on a name (per usual). My nieces, who are late teens early twenties, just
called him Kitty. My sister tested names on him and finally about a month later she decided he was Rocky. Last night I was at her house and he was Rocky to her, but my niece called him Kitty. The vet knows him as Rocky. I think he is a Rocky, definitely not Kitty! They are a crazy bunch! LOL
Now that made me laugh! Then I realized you were referring to catwoman707 and not all advisors!
......................and i just realized that catwoman707 is an "advisor"....so she is probably busy giving cats and catpeople advice....this will take a while...
@gcat....yeah....teddy is a fave...but i guess it can't qualify....
How fun!!LOVE these names
Some I've used, a few do strike me as good for him.
Love Teddy but have a special boy on my cat route with that name, my faves so far are Rusty and Spike) He DOES have very soft but spikey fur.
this is priceless and enlightening....i shall have to follow some advisors around....and eavesdrop a little...."note to self, must work harder as an advisor"...lol..Now that made me laugh! Then I realized you were referring to catwoman707 and not all advisors!
......................and i just realized that catwoman707 is an "advisor"....so she is probably busy giving cats and catpeople advice....this will take a while...I am more often found chatting about rubbish, and you are quite right, catwoman707 is very busy and concientious so you are probably very right. Note to self, must work harder as an advisor.
If you follow an advisor follow someone like @catwoman707! I am a poor example of an advisor as I spend a high proportion of my time looking at fun photos and falling in love with other people's kitties
If you follow an advisor follow someone like @catwoman707! I am a poor example of an advisor as I spend a high proportion of my time looking at fun photos and falling in love with other people's kittiesand babbling on the Official TCS Babbling Games thread while neglecting my advisor duties and my own poor blue-boy (you can probably hear his squeeks for attention as I post).... I would hate you to think most advisors mis-spend their days as I do.
As I am a recent appointment to the advising team here on TCS and my forte is having as few opinions as possible, I would say 'as long as it takes you to get to know kitty', and if you choose one name and it doesn't suit it is not unreasonable for a human parent to change a name. However, delay and kitty may well have made up his or her own mind to respond to some word used regularly in their presence whether it is the intended name or not, and could come running up with anticipatory tail in the air every time you say 'Supper', 'Hi', or 'Now' rather than what you want to call them anyway.I often wonder how many young kittens think their human slaves have called them 'No' (that being why they look round when the human says no, and then carry on doing whatever it is they are doing).

thank you @GCat ....I gotta find some of those old Mouse tales...laughter is the best medicine. So where did the name "miss bunny rose" come from?I think you are a wonderful advisor- when I was lurking here for months many of your posts (and the other advisors’) helped me greatly with solving my own kitties’ predicaments, and your babbles and Mouse tales make me laugh every day (He must be honored to have such a wonderful and caring meowmy!) The advisor board is extremely knowledgeable in general and it’s so helpful to see a long, detailed response to a problem that normal people wouldn’t be willing to help with.
About the naming- you can change the name whenever you want to. My niece originally named Bunny Rose “Strawberry”, but then my husband changed it to Miss Bunny Rose and she still comes whenever we call her name. But when we were in the process of naming Pippi (our most recent addition), she actually responded to the name “Kitty”. Luckily, Pippi and Kitty don’t sound too dissimilar, so she adjusted to her new name pretty well (or she just thinks we still call her Kitty).
@catwoman707 , i second what mservant said. i wanted to write some encouraging words, but just did not know what to say. I think a good movie at night to get your mind off things is great, i usually just pick some tv show because they are shorter. i thank you for posting and the work you do. I know the cats would thank you, even the people, but they might not listen the first time around.
@catwoman707,....
One of the reasons I spend lots of time in the lounge, and on silly threads, is as a balance and diversion from some of the more upsetting and harrowing things that can take over in my mind. As you are also very involved in practical rescue I don't know how you manage to sustain your energy and positivity, other than with the complete joy and warmth with creatures like Chrystal and young 'nameless' here when things go well.
