Adopting a new kitten today! Any name suggestions?

[Karen]

Butterscotch is cliché, but what sprung to mind! It's Thanksgiving, maybe something to do with that? He's too light to be Pumpkin Pie, but ...

Husker? - Kansas being pretty well known for corn fields ...

Biscuit

Buffy

Tanner

Sandy

[katladyd]

Tigger
Jack (for Jack-o-Lantern if the kitty is a boy)
Peaches (for a girl)
Marmalade

I feel as though you have to live with the kitty for a while and let his/her personality come through. When I acquired a longhaired grey kitten in 1990, I thought I'd call him Paddy. Didn't seem right, somehow. And then one day, I realized he was such a "charmer," and with that long grey hair - Merlin seemed a natural!

You've got some really nice suggestions right now; I'd add Sorbet - it's a soft color, like the kitty.

Good luck - may you be blessed with many, many happy and healthy years on Earth!

I agree - you need to get a feel for the kitty. We thought we had a name all picked out for Duffy when we got him - changed it within a week when it just didn't "fit".

I agree, too, but you might start with Pumpkin..

I think you're right, I just need to spend some time with him and a name will naturally come to me.

Only 1.5 hours until I go pick him up!
