New, Mostly Unnamed Cat
Originally uploaded by Essentialsaltes

We rescued 'Fritz' from the pound on Saturday. We're still all getting to know each other, but he's pretty friendly. Currently, we're trying to settle on a new name, with options ranging from Spats to Smilodon.

I'm lobbying for Ming.

Um, shouldn't a cat of yours be named after a cuddly monster, god, or other unworldly creature? I vote for Smilodon. "Spats" just seems so mundane for your household =)

Naming a pet is a tricky undertaking. Even if you only ever refer to him as "the cat," "fuzzbucket," "here kitty," or "that goddamned furry bastard," the proper name is crucial. I vote Spats. What a cutie!

I'm with hagdirt on this. Spats rocks. Or maybe even Opus. ;)

Very nice cat! Don't choose Smilodon...I think I wanna use that if I ever get a cat. ;)

nice pic. strange that he has glowing green eyes, instead of the usual glowing red. His name should probably reflect that fact. Or an acronym. Scientists (and cats) love acronyms.

Only blue-eyed cats glow red in the dark. Like us, they don't have the inner coating on the retinas that other cats and dogs have - it makes their red-eye go green.

Oooo! He could be Poi's brother!

Wow. That's eerily similar. Not just brothers, but twins. We got the chunky one.
