...for a cat. Anyone have some suggestions? We have a new maine **** cat and we were thinking of some nautical-related name for him. Any and all suggestions welcome!
so far, i have been intrigued by hawser, drogue, mizzen....
My old Maine **** McAllister. Snarly nasty fella but smart as a whip. When my alarm would go off in the morning if I didn't get up right away he would headbutt my arm until I got up.
Figured this out all on his own. ALARM=Dave gets up.
My wife always named her pets after astronomical figures so our current cat needed a nautical one once he moved on board. She decided on Neptune since it was astronomical and nautical.
A friend used to name his cats after his favourite draft beers.(these are all English beers)So there was Theakston;Boddington;Hartley plus after the German lager Stella.
My cats-well Puss Puss and Little Puss-both strays to which we didnt want to get attached. Puss Puss a black and white was with us 14 years until his death at 20 something last year and Little Puss who came to us as a half grown stray hence the name is now 15!
Spencer likes the name spencer. Think I have a pic of him somewhere. MC's are great kittys, no matter the name frankly! Altho he is a small MC. The VC in my YC has one that is supposidly 3+' long. ABout 30 lbs worth, spencer is all of 15 lbs.
And, i like the idea of naming after a place we have sailed. The only problem is that the one place we keep sailing to (day trips are the limit with a 4 year old so far) is an island called " little Misery." Guess we have to goto more interesting places ;-)
These are great suggestions. And nice kitty pics. Keep it coming!
