    Urgent- Need Name !!!!- A sad Tripod story.

    http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthre...highlight=odie


    O.k. So my Grandmother hates that everyone is calling her new cat Tripod. She says she need a new "nice" name. She told me to choose it, .

    O.k...... But I'm out of ideas. So I need your help ! A new name for Tripod, ( who is a boy )

    Grama says it can't have anything to do with having 3 legs. ( She thinks it might offend him )

    I'm going to her house tommaro ( it's 3 1/2 hours away ) She doesn't have internet, and I won't have time to go on in the morning. So I need them before the end of the night !

    Please post, everything and anything.....

    Help !

    P.S. I'll take lots of pics for you guys tommaro !

    How about Gem
    Or Lester, Sinbad or George?
    Or Michael, or Samson?
    Or Moose, as Moose would love a wonderful Kitty named after him.

    O.K.- I got an idea. Anyone with a siggy with cats and their names on it, please post,

    I can look at the siggy and get many names at a time. ( I'm writing 'em all down so I can give her the ones that seem fitting )

    You can look through the A-Z threads at the top of the "Cat General" page--plenty of cat names there.

    I have a three-legger and my hubby insisted her name should have been tripod but her name is Flutter, because her missing leg would flutter outwards when she walked... I hated the name but got used to it. I still don't like it because it reminds me of her missing leg, but what can I do? She's my Flutter Butter

    Hmmm.... males names:
    I have Allen, Pouncer, and Harry. I like Jen's new kitty's name, Hamlet. I am also awful at naming things. First you need to decide if he should have a human name or a non-human name (like Pouncer)

    Good luck, and happy naming - you only have a few hours before its tomorrow!

    I went to see Tripod yesterday, he's gray and black. He is SOOOOOOOO sad.

    He tries to srcatch himself with his stump. ( he has a hip, but no leg ) All you see is the stump moving and the ear waiting to be scratched, but the foot not being there to scratch.... It was the saddest thing I have ever seen a cat do.

    People are now calling him Stumpy. ( my grama REALLY likes that... ) Now she is trying to insist people call him Puss.

    Smokey the Elder would do the same thing, try to scratch with her stump. That was my cue to give her ear a good scritch!

    Flutter also scratches herself with ehr little leg. It just flutters in the air. I personally love that little look and I walk over and scratch the itch for her

    Yea, I had to scratch him, too. I couldn't resist ! It was just sooooo sad, the stump is about a inch and a half long, so it didn't even come close to reaching.

    Some things about Stumpy:

    Stumpy runs quite fast. Tends to lean on things, though. Doesn't like Cat Grass. Loves string, hair, ( especially mine ) Camera wrist-straps and anything that moves.

    AND... ( most disgustingly ) Enjoys CHEWING on his stump !!! That is just disgusting, how can you stop this behavior?

    Doesn't like Jenny ( He gave her a look of immence dislike, which she DIDN'T return ) ( surprisingly )
