We've had considerable experience with black cats. Sasha and Jetta are gone, Mama's Boy is here now.

Judging by the look on that one's face it looks like "Focus" to me.

Clearly the name of the dog that gets savaged by that tiny kitten.

This I agree with. We just adopted a 7-week-old rescue kitten that looks like a Siamese with ghost tabby stripes. She was from litter of 4 that they named after gemstones. "Opal" was what she came with, and it almost stuck, but she seemed more like a "Juno", so that's what she's become.

So "Opal" is available if you want it.

Begin as you mean to go on, and just call it "STUPID CAT!" That's what you will be calling it every time you trip over it or it shreds your paperwork or pukes on your stuff. I have two, and I LOVE them. One is called "grrrrrrrrrMAX, SHUT UP!" and the other is called "do you live here?".

In reply to Spoolpigeon: Know your Simpsons that's Snowball II.

I named our cat squater BooBoo Kitty. It was a BooBoo letting her hang around, now she thinks she lives here, and my dog thinks he's the baby daddy of her kittens.

After I was in bed she'd sneak in and curl up on my shoulder, purrin' all night long and make her way to my cheek. One lovable kitten there. She disappeared for a few days, found her dead in the basement when I checked on the furnace. Dunno what happened, maybe she got into poison or sumthin'. Never took in strays after that, never became a real pet person after that either. Never named her, prolly just Kitty. Dang, I miss her.

Dammit, somebody in the office must be cutting up onions again...

Back on topic: How about "Helio," as in "Helio Cat-stroneves"?

You could name her Mercy.

We have a cat named Purrdita. Feel free to steal it.

We have Opel now, but my last black kitty came to me with the far too severe "Selene" and soon became "Patty."

I just adopted a kitten last month. His name is O'Darrius Maximus. He gets along well with my Doberman Pinscher.

The decision to keep her was made on Thursday and the final choices were "Danica Catrick" as suggested by Rufledt and "Beemer" since we picked up an E36 the same day. (I know technically it should have been "Bimmer" but my wife refuses any part of the Beemer/Bimmer debate).

After practicing saying "Dammit" followed by each name we went with Danica.

"Ass-trophy"

So you can say to people "allow me to introduce you to my Cat, Ass Trophy"

Then you could invite her to dinner, and tell your wife you invited Cat Ass Trophy.

Wife named the black cat Pandora.

She ended up being called kitty by the rest of us.
