Loudmouth is his original name. He was an outside cat we were feeding. Late in the evening, he would sit outside our front door and meow LOUDLY until someone would go out and pay him some attention. His name sprang from these bouts, which grew longer and louder. Eventually, we tried letting him inside. He turned out to be a domesticated cat, not a feral. He does have one or two problems, but not enough to kick him to the curb like his previous owner must have done.
