We’re still discussing whether to change the new cat’s name. Nothing seems quite right yet. His current name, Argyle, has a certain dignified cachet but doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue (or lend itself to endearments; Argie? Ugh; unless he becomes a pirate… which could be cool).
Here are just some of the many possible alternatives (and thanks to fellow cat-owned friends for helping with this list):
- Bear
- Dyson, Vacuumer of Food
- Fezzik
- Furrdinand
- Gandalf
- Hagrid
- Nanook
- Orion
- Purrcules
- Thunder Cat “Raiden,” Lord of Cuddles and Electrostatic Shocks
- Tigger
