Other visitors submitted these cute cat names. A big thank you to all who have submitted!
See if you can find inspiration in these for yourself, or feel free to submit your own.
Some of these were submitted with explanation/comments, others not, and some were submitted a-nony-mousely.
Unfortunately, none of these were submitted with pictures, and while some who submitted left commentary, it's just a few lines.
So, they don't really warrant a full page. But, I still think it's interesting to see what others have named their cats, so I've put them in this collection. These are listed in chronological order, from oldest to newest received.
To the best of my knowledge, the cat in the picture below is not named Spartacus. I just thought it would be a cute name for such an interesting looking creature.
When one of our cats passed away, we got him for our other cat's company.
