OCKY IS COMING HOME TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!!


Ok, you guys this is officially it! We have to have a new name!!!
Hubby liked Mr. Magoo but I want a few more options that might work depending on his personality.
Let's go people! Put on the thinking caps and lets name that kitty!!! He looks like a little stuffed animal with no eyes! Poor baby.
Keep the prayers going that all will go well with the other kids and Ocky becomes a wonderful new family member. I'm so nervous and so excited all at the same time!

[Twink]

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!! *squeal*

That's so great!!!! I'm so excited for you!!! **BIG HUGS*** for Ockey!! I can't wait to hear all about his homecoming, and to see some more pics! :D :D :D

Names....ooh, I know! You can call him "Justice." 'Cause you know, Justice is blind...har har....

I still like "Ockey." It's cute!

:D :D :D :D

[PayItForward]

I like Ocky too :D

[sirrahved]

I'm a fan of Ocky, too. It just seems to fit, you know?

[Uabassoon]

Yay! Congrats to him for finding a home! I also really like the name Mr. Magoo!

[K & L]

Wa Hoo...I don't like Ocky cause it sounds too much like Yucky! I do like Mr. Magoo! I'll put my thinking cap on.

[catnapper]

I like the Justice concept! Ocky is... hokey. :)

How about Braille?

Keeping fingers and paws crossed that he comes home with you tomorrow night!

[RICHARD]

The obvious...


BK, BeeKay (blind kitty) or

Longstreet, named after a blind TV detective or

From mythology..
Argus. A fabulous being of enormous strength, who had a hundred eyes, of which only two were asleep at once, whence he was named Panoptes, or the All-seeing.

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Wooo hoooo!!! I've been thinking about you and thinking maybe I missed the big homecoming since I haven't been able to get on lately, but I see I'm right on time!

I like Mr. Magoo too. He looks like a Magoo. ;) :D

But I'll put my thinking cap on too....let me see, you already have a Pervy, a Stubby, a Peanut Butter, a Maggie Sue, a Sammy, a Lucky, a Pete a Pepper Jack and a good ol' Leroy, so what name would fit well with those....hmmm......

Oops, gotta go restart the work computer - again. I'll think about it and get back to you!

Don't forget to charge the camera batteries!!! :D

[nibblets]

Stevie Wonder... (Stevie for short) since he is such a WONDERful little guy.

[sirrahbed]

My 2 cents worth:D I don't think he should have a name that goes with his blindness, but one that goes with his personality or looks. To me, he looks like a teddy bear and a sweet one at that...the names rolling through my head are along the lines of PoohBear, Bear, Muffin, Kissyface, Cupcake, Hugabear...:D I am a bit partial to Kissyface, after hearing about the nice kiss he gave you!!! XXXXX

PS I do like "Magoo", too

[guster girl]

I like Ocky! :) I just think Ocular is way cool, and, so original. BUt, as far as blind people go, I think Claude or Monet would be super, too. ;) I especially like Monet.

[Kirsten]

I like Monet, too... :)

But actually I agree with sirrahbed and wouldn't name him after his blindness.

I'm happy for him that he's coming home with you now! Good luck! :)

Kirsten

[sirrahved]

Okay, if you can't decide, just let one of the other kitties name him! That's what we did with Pickles. And can you see Pickles as anything but? Marsha did a good job, IMHO.

Yeah, but could YOU name a cat Kissyface and introduce him to other people as such? I really wanted to name Rizzo after the huge, shaggy, Muppet-eating, fly-attracting monster Muppet. But every time I thought of myself saying, "This is my cat, Sweetums." I wanted to throw myself off a bridge. :rolleyes:

You've got a good train of thought going there, though. PoohBear had actually occurred to me. And, for some reason, Paddington! He must look bearish, in a cuddly sort of way.

[RICHARD]

Ocular Kitty.....

How's about OK?

Now that he is going to a new home, he's gonna be OK!
:D

PADDINGTON!!!! I could see that bear in my mind but could NOT remember his name !! THANKS!!! Great name!!!

but I still like Kissyface, too :p Everyone thinks I am quirky anyway so who cares??:rolleyes:

Oh, OK

No, his name is OK

OK, fine

NO, just OK

Just OK?

NO! NO! OK!!!

Geez-you don't have to get made about it, OK?

OK...

doesn't his lack of eyes have something to do with his looks? lol

ROTFLMAO!!! Who's Laurel and who's Hardy?

[neko1]

Awww kissyface is a cute name!:)

[catland]

Name suggestions:

Carl
Mr. Peabody
Jack


:)

[jazzcat]

I think Magoo is cute but I do believe they've hit on something with Paddington. He does look like a teddy bear just like my Ripley.

Again, there is a ring to Maggie Sue and Mr. Magoo...:D

Isn't that Abbott & Costello??:D :D
Who's on first, What's on second, I Don't Know is on third...

[AbbyMom]

How about Lucky? Since you're both lucky to have each other?;)

[catcrazylady]

ROFLMAO!! You guys are killing me!!!
Sirrahbed and Richard...knock it off!!! This is serious business you two!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/wink.gif :D :D :D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

I'm thinking about all the suggestions and so far I like them all. Paddington is really cute! It seems like such a long name and I know I would shorten it into Paddy and that sounds like a girl. I haven't given up on that yet though.
Keep the names coming you guys!!!

Sirrahbed I love you to death but there is no way I'm going to name a male cat in my house Kissyface!!!http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/eek.gif

[Sara luvs her Tinky]

AWWWWWW

Im so glad you are getting to take "Ocky" I am terrible with names but i think he should get a soft sensitive type name that sounds sweet when people say it.....:)

however i am sooooooo excited for you

*POST SOME PICTURES* AND KEEP US UPDATED!!*

[guster girl]

I still like Monet, but, Paddington is really nice, too! I'm not a big fan of cutesy names, so, kissyface makes my skin crawl! ha ha, but, let us know when you've decided! :)

*POUT*

Well...when I was little... there was this syrup I liked to use and there was a cute bear on the front...and the syrup was called......Bosco!
Did you ever hear of Bosco? That would be a cute name:D
I still like Kissyface :p
...followed by Magoo and Stevie Wonder

[moosmom]

WOOOHOOOO!!!!!! Welcome home sweet boy!

I love the name Magoo!! How about naming him Oakey? Not short for Ocular. But Oakey.

I am SO glad you're giving him a wonderful home. By now I'm sure the two of you have bonded.

Have a wonderful life, Mr. Man. You certainly deserve it!!!

[Grace]

Another vote here for Magoo. Whatever you name him - he's one lucky fellow.

[rg_girlca]

Oh I can't wait to hear how tomorrow goes. I hope and pray that all goes well in time and Ocky/Mr. Magoo/Paddington or whatever name you decide on, enjoys his new forever home.
Can't wait to see more pictures of this precious boy.

[Craftlady]

Congrats!!!!! I vote for Magoo. :)

[moosmom]

Cool!!! Magoo, WELCOME HOME!!!

[tuxluvr]

Bluff

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm so glad to hear that Ocky will be coming home with you.:) I also like the name Mr. Magoo. You could also name him Teddy or Ted for short since he looks like a Teddy Bear.:)

[slick]

I like either Stevie or Magoo.

BTW: Congrats for giving this special kitty a loving home.

[catmandu]

Personally I would be honore if you would call him Scrappy , afeter one of the nicest Cats , My RB Angel Mr. Scrappy. But Ocular is nice , as well!

[sasvermont]

I had a cat named Mr. Ted.....as in Teddy Bear....because he was one.....a big Teddy Bear....so I vote for the name Bear. It makes him sound as though he is so bold and confident! He will need to be, to get along with the others!

So I vote for Bear.

SAS

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

How about :

Issay ( African - means Hairy)

HUSLU (native American - Means Hairy Bear)

Caesar - long haired.

I like Huslu - it's a very unusual name for a very unusual kittie!!!

[QueenScoopalot]

I'm voting for Magoo! Like they say...you've done it again Magoo. We had a cat named "Y" for 18 years. He was an indoor/outdoor cat (safe area) and when I'd call him in....well I got some odd looks from the neighbors to say the least! :D :rolleyes: :D He was named "Y" for the perfect letter Y on his chest!

[RedHedd]

I like Ocky-Magoo! Just has a nice sing-songy sound to it ... :p

[Randi]

I like it too! :)

[RICHARD]

Ocky
Paddington
Magoo



OPM........Opium????

Why?

Because we are all 'hooked' on him!!:D

[QueenScoopalot]

It takes a creative (maybe pickled) mind to think up that one Richard!:D I know I'm hooked on the tyke.

SAS I like this idea for a name too.:)

[carole]

I was going to suggest Stevie too, so that is my pick, I also think Bluff is pretty cute too..

[davidpizzica]

I say one vote for MR. MAGOO! Whatever his name is going to be, I'm glad he's getting a great forever home!!!
