I’ve spent much of today looking at shelters and other places to adopt cats. No one will replace Harley but we’ve got space for another cat so why not help out one that needs a home.
I forgot how stressful it is (not quite stressful but exciting and hopeful you’ll get picked) when trying to adopt pets.
For fun we looked up funny pet names that some pets are given when their fosters are looking for homes for them.
Which is your fav?
Here are the actual cats we’re looking at in a poll form.
Feels a bit weird to have a poll but the app has the feature so why not?

@Kungfupussy Spicy potato by a landslide. What a beauty!
@Daren there are so many lovely cats to adopt. I’d love a Maine Coon but I refuse to pay for a “real” one and every pet I’ve had ever had been from a shelter.
@Kungfupussy Good on you!
@Kungfupussy I mean, are 10 cats really too many?
@cjewel nah but my landlord wouldn’t get cross and I’d never get any work done
That’s such a tough call, coz I’d like to see the creature in action before I put a name to he/her!
I'm in favour of a pet name that matches the characteristics of the beastie. By the same token, we kept our rescue pup’s name (even though we didn’t really like it) coz she’d already had it for almost 3 months…
She’s grown into her moniker!
@Luber905 I renamed the ones I got. Harley (cat) was originally Lolita (barf), I don’t think Churro (dog) had a name, and Shadow (cat in my profile pic) was something different too that I can’t remember
They’re all love bugs, regardless of what human names we assign them…!
@Kungfupussy I applaud the person who named a cat Oedipus Wrecks. That’s phenomenal.
@sfleetucker I think I should rename whichever cat that name anyhow because it’s awesome. (I won’t but it’s an ace idea)
@Kungfupussy Perfect name for a Cornish Rex.
Oh and these are the funny name cats, not the ones we’re looking at adopting. Although I’m sure these would be good pets too.
