Cats Name?
I'm soo excited today we're going to pick up our new baby, A rescue cat (tortoishell) a 4 year old female Trixie. However we are not too keen on the name and would like to give her a more sophisticated name, Any idea's.
..and is it a good idea to change her name or not & how long d'ya think it'll take her to get used to it?

Gypsy sounds great, but you may soon start to call her by a nickname anyway dependant on how cute she is looking or how badly she is behaving!
Both my female cats came from rescue centres and soon settled in, making their needs which there were many, known to me. They already had their names Bandit (now sadly now longer with me) I think must have been named bacause of her black eye patches and Ozzie, but I have no idea where that name came from! The names seemed to suit them so I did not change them.
I had a cat some years ago that we thought was a boy (no I did not check the back end to see!) and named it Turbo due the speed of him running around but then the vet informed me that he was a she, so it got shortened to Tubs. That name definately suited her, given her eating habits!

Sue, you're right I heard my hubby calling her yesterday and he was calling Gyp, Gyp, not me yet.
Yes in another thread I read how you had lost your beloved Bandit & my heart went out to you because I do know how that feels we lost our beautiful tab Ginn a year ago. I never dream't I would grieve for a cat like I did. She was old (20) and had suffered from Hyperthyroidism for 5 years and was kept alive by two tablets a day which were expensive (50p each) she was worth it to us though. I still find it hard to erase the sight of finding her dead on the rug when I got up one morning.
Our Gypsey is now helping with that, she's proving to be very therapeutic.
Thankyou everyone for all your comments.
