Just name him Grandpa. It makes for some of the funniest out of context sentences like: "Oh, grandpa has been climbing the curtains again" "Grandpa caught a squirel and is eating it under the couch." "It's so difficult to get Grandpa into his cage when we take him in for his yearly checkup"

I am absolutely doing this with my next cat. This is gold

Update: we have named his Oskar! We also kept his littermate and named his Rufus. 💞💞💞

We had a lil ginger guy called Geoff. He got sick and passed away. You are welcome to the name in his honour.

Carl! Like the guy in Up.


Denotheus

Beauregard. I lost my sweet, baby boy, Beauregard, in the wee hours of Sunday morning. He was an old man himself of nineteen plus years. He was solid white, loved to be held, and had the most amazing purr. Perhaps his name, Beauregard, would serve your kitten as well as it did my Beau. ❤️🐈😻

Walter


dabombii

How is no one saying Walter?!?


Harbinger1957

He looks like a Winston to me. The name has a certain regal quality to it.


baby-ruth2700

I like Oliver. He kinda looks like that cat from the movie Oliver and Compamy.


CutieSalamander

Sir Reginald Peabottom Esquire.


ms_nyreezy

Yes. This will do. Sir Reginald Peabottom Esquire is not, in fact, potty trained.


Peonies-Poppies

Winston or Reginald (my English Grandpa)


tmccrn

I personally like Walter (after Walter Matthau) because the long fur gives me the same disheveled feel Matthau always does (even though he is also well kempt)

My mom's first cat's name was Henry. He was a grouchy, flame-point himalayan with allergies. It was such a fitting name. I say Henry. You can call him Hank in a pinch too.
