Just a little guy
It only took 28 years but I've finally succumbed to my kitty-mom instincts and rescued this little guy from the humane society this afternoon.
I am, officially, a cat owner and miracles, officially, do happen.
I started this entry about 3 hours ago but his bounding energy, teeth, and little baby claws have been keeping me busy and following me around the house. And why shouldn't they? I got *THE* cutest little cat carrier *ev-er*. If I was a cat I'd certainly want to be carried around all hot and styling in my black and pink Sopheava purse. I'd follow me around too, yo!
So... he still doesn't have a name and I figured you guys might have some suggestions. Well, I mean, here's his picture so you can see he's a brown and grey tabby, has medium-length hair all maine coon style, and the cutest little tufts coming out of his ears. Oh my... the incredible 8 week old kitteny cuteness now living in my house is a very, very serious thing indeed!!
So far the name Pierre is out, as he's certainly not a French nor is he bilingual... but I'm still tossing around Indigo (Indie for short). Anyone got anything better?

He looks like a Mikey to me.
Awww. He's even got a stylish collar already!
To aid my fellow readers efforts in suggesting names, I have obtained secret video footage hacked from Humane Society surveillance cameras of the diabolical kitten's mind-controlling tactics used to capture Sopheava's affections.
Authenticity can be verified by the dangling locks and pink pants. Unfortunately the audio was corrupted but it consisted of a lot of aaahhhs and oooohhs...
Does this make sopheava.com a vlog now?
Tristan?
Markus?
Lamia?
Faust?
Ok, I'll be back with more literary references in a while.
He looks like an Ernie to me...congrats on your big decision; he's darling! The Humane Society is the best way to go!
I'm favoring Tristan.
Here are my choices:
Sage
Dakota
Dallas
Maddox
Maximilian
Ramsey or Ramses
Rush
I've always thought I'd name my animals one of those...hell my dog's name is Rooka.
Zeus and Zion are cute too!
PS. Congrats I'm very happy you decided to go to the Humane Society =)
I love a happy ending (or beginning).
Name vote: Per (like "pear")
Hard to go wrong with T.S. Eliot too...
Could call him Grum -- short for Grumbuskin, or Victor. Or take an approach like my friend John did here.
go with something so simple it is perverse....if you get to carried away here it will look like your trying to be cool...so to counteract all the obsurdity in names go with ......Gary....or Larry....Dean.....Joe....did I say larry...now that would be so very cool...
Ahhh, too cute. I'm happy for you.
{Sniffle.}
wow.. larry is like... woah.
plarge has psychic powers.
Whoa Paul - actually, when I picked him up from the Humane Society the name on his tag was Larry. I don't know if it was something they came up with that morning or if his litter-name really *was* Larry.
Either way, Larry isn't really his flavor. I think Indigo is gonna be the keeper.
Although, if you call him Indie I'm going to be busting out all my Indiana Jones quotes.
So is Indie going to be featured on "Stuff On My Cat"??
OMG! Yay!!! I was at your Flickr before I came here and saw the cuteness and thought...no...she didn't..but.. YOU DID! I'm so happy for you! And on Mother's day even. I bet he smells all sweet and new kitteny too. sigh. I want one. I'm Jealous.
