I named KitKat after the KitKat chocolate bar.

Wan-Lea Wendy Avalon: We don't know where the "Wendy" part came from. Wan-Lea is the name of the cattery, and Avalon was her grandmother. She is a retired show cat, so she was named by the breeder long before we met her.

Each cat got named for his or her personality = mostly. Bandit has a mask hence bandit; Dumbo has the biggest ears I've ever seen = Dumbo; Cocoa Puff (Coke) has a very long fancy name cause I registered her - Miss Cocoa PUff of Hazelwood I think, she's still just plain old coke; and Nudnik - well she is an absolute pest so we named her nudnik because it means pest in Yiddish and I didn't want to call her pest, it didn't sound right - but for her we put our choices in a hat and picked the name from those in the hat.

i named him Tagg, i found him while camping at a site called Tagg run. we were in a game room there and outside next to the building there was a huge pile of wood with alot of wild kittens in it, so i decided to go try to catch one and they all ran away except for him, he crouched down and hissed at me and i snatched him up and put him inside my hoodie. my dad kept saying all night you better put him back he could have rabies or something(i was 21 yrs old and a dog person never owned a cat) but it was love at first sight and no matter what anybody said he was mine forever!!! so i fed him hot dogs for the night and put him in my tent and he didnt pee or poop in there, the next morning took him down with me to the showers and he used the bathroom while i did and i showered and went home with him. he was 5 wks old and sooooo tiny and cute(thought he was a girl at first) never shy and always loveable. i am now 27 and he is the light of my life. i taught him to sit and fetch and he greets everbody and everybody loves him!!! here are some pics when i first got him  
Black cats are pure luck!

| Cali's name came from when I first met her in the early morning light and couldn't really tell she was a torti not a calico. But I think Cali sounds prettier than Torti anyway. Her full name is Princess Calico. The princess part just absolutely suits her. Even as a stray begging for food she had a royal, holier-than-thou attitude. Minuet got her name through a chain of stream of consciousness thinking. She was born to a barn cat named "Little" (the runt of her litter). The barn's name is Pepperwood Farm. So my first thought was "Pepper", but I didn't like that. Then I thought of "Piper" because it sounds like "Pepper", but I didn't like that either. The "Piper" got me on a music theme and "Minuet" sounded pretty. I also thought it was fitting that I sometimes shorten it to "Mini" since her mom is "Little". I named her when she was just a week old. Now I think the name fits because when she meows it sounds like a short melodic tune which is the definitition of a minuet. I kinda wish she had a more horsey name because she was a third generation barn kitty, but oh well.

I adopted "Baby" from the Humane Society almost 2 yrs ago and he had his name when I got him . Rather than confuse him any more than he was we left it. In the long run it has fit him, when he doesn't see me he walks around and cries like a baby!!!!! I wouldn't change it for anything!
