Quoted from jhanley:

Another pic of our new kitten we adopted.We are still pondering what to name her

Start a pinside naming contest

#3453 2 years ago

I suggest Gunner
as the kitten is showing off those large forearms (guns),
but that is not very feminine,
so how about Gammie
for those great set of gams

Quoted from transprtr4u:

You'll end up with Catty McCatface if you go the contest route.

So, does she run away when you call her?

How do you spell (or pronounce) the sound an electric can opener makes?

We just brought home a new pinball assistant friday night. Still trying to come up with a good name for him. We are thinking Ozzy or Yogi, but still not sure. Right now he is a big goofball.

His longer fur reminds me a bit of our Leroy when he was a kitten

I thought about Leroy.. I can't see the eyes.. What breed? I think we are going with Shadow.. He hasn't stopped following us around since we brought him home.

Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:

4 years back we took in a stray temporarily. We didn't want to get attached so we just called her "Cat 3.". The name stuck. The temporay didn't.

Careful with the "Cat 3". "Devastating damage will occur. Well-built frame homes may sustain major damage or removal of roof decking and gable ends."

Quoted from BubbaK:

LeRoy came from the shelter, (as with all our cats)
I think he is just a long hair siamese mix, kinda similar to Himalayan (without the snub face) or a Birman without the white paws.
Leroy, as he grew older became very shy, and tends to always stay 6 feet away from you whenever you approach him,
he does not run away and hide, just always out of reach. though on occasion he will approach you for a short petting session.

Shadow sounds like a good name for your guy.

her name is pinball, and she weighs 3 pounds, so she's allowed.

Molly and Freddy like the project Paragon their owner brought home last night and especially like the beast theme. Their owner isn’t sure he has the skills to fix the cabinet which is starting to split at the seams. Molly and Freddy say that he should watch some YouTube videos; they want to keep it.

Good looking cats. Our guys are 14 lbs (not fat, just big damn cats). When they jump down from the backbox onto the playfield glass it is so loud, but hasn't been an issue.......yet.

Not pinball, BUT...............Hobbes is going to be in a calendar! A local winery (Sleepy Cat Winery in Allentown, PA) put out a call for cat photos for their upcoming 2022 calendar. We sent in a photo of Hobbes, thinking it would be good for October.

Well, apparently they got so many black cat photos, they made a collage, and he made the cut! Now he's prancing around like he owns the place. Oh, wait...........

Cool
Interesting that there is a cat named Wednesday there.
We also have a cat named Wednesday,
but normally call her Lil' Bit, except when she is in trouble.

She must have only one thing on her mind... homicide.

A cat chasing your ball makes it quite a bit more difficult.

Mr. Snow ended up with kidney problems. He refused to eat the proper food or take medicine. We finally decided to let him be happy and eat and drink what he wanted. He made it about a year before he stopped eating and drinking completely.
