MY RELIGION IS THE SMALL BLOCK V8 AND COMMANDMENTS ONE THROUGH TEN ARE NEVER LIFT.

So I got a new kitten, and he is finally a kitten stubborn enough to not be afraid of my scaredy-cat existing cat, Roscoe, who started out hissing at him repeatedly before begrudgingly deciding to play. Now they sleep next to each other and chase each other through the house like total morons.



He is about 4 months old, and eats like a vacuum cleaner.

What I don't have is a good name for him. The foster called him Taz, because like the Tasmanian Devil of ancient myth he likes to spin around and get into loving everything.

Our previous orange cat was named Julius, so we're obviously open to vaguely-racist pun names about their personal appearance.

Please throw out some ideas for names. Let's say whoever wins gets an avatar cert?

Macro the not-quite-brave on his first day home. Orange cats are the best :3: He's 4, literally rescued by the RSPCA from an actual crazy catwoman who had dozens of cats in a 1-bedroom flat. He's had quite enough of other cats and is very happy so far.

He's adjusting much faster than I expected, by midnight he was mewing at me to let him out of the bathroom, and he's been happily staking out the entire flat making sure I'm not far away. I suspect other kitties know he's here and taunting him through the back window because he meows there (there's a grey and white tabby who regularly checks me out); all the local flats have outside kitties and it will be hard for my kitty to deal with being an indoor one at first.

Here he is pointedly ignoring my cat tree and claiming his spot. He calmed down when rap was on tv, I think he likes it.

There's a group of mostly black-and-white cats on my block that I call the Tuxedo Gang. My orange cat Oscar talks to them a lot from inside my house, usually right after I feed him canned food. I think he's taunting them.

Lately they've been leaving me presents, like a squirrel... well, the head, tail and spine of one. I also got the tail feathers of a blue jay at my front door. They nap in my front yard through the day so maybe they're paying rent.

Clearly they've been told about the canned food and wish to negotiate a trade.

This is D.B. Cooper. He is 20 pounds of concentrated napping. D.B. enjoys sleeping on the windowsill and not being harassed by Susan Papaya, my new kitten. D.B. spends a lot of his time nowadays being unable to enjoy himself.

Here we can see him on the counter, which is one of the only spaces in the apartment that Susan is unable to reach (Yet. give it a month or two and I'm sure her vertical will improve). I believe he is trying to tell me that I am a motherfucker, the kitten sucks, and that unless I give him treats he will wake me up at 3am every night this week. I gave him treats.

Here's Susan Papaya (named from the humane society). It's very difficult to get her to stand still for even a moment, so this is her in the morning after attacking my feet. Susan also thinks that she can go toe-to-toe with D.B. Cooper, despite weighing all of like 4 pounds and DB being five times that. At one point I saw D.B. just sort of fall on her and pin her to the ground. She's very much still in 'full-kitten-retard' mode.

Funnily enough, he loves traveling. My prior cat detested car rides and would whine constantly until he was let out of his carrier, then he would ball up on my lap and refuse to move, look around, or generally do anything but remain perfectly still for however long the car ride was. D.B. not so much, he's happy int he carrier and won't complain, but let him out and he's basically a dog. He pushes his face right up against the window and meows at other cars, cows, pedestrians, everything. Whenever I have to move my cat carrier he gets all excited.

Hello all, I have recently acquired an orange cat. His name is Chester.

Obligatory picture, I do not know how to get a bbcode link on mobile:
https://imgur.com/a/luWim

We adopted him from the city shelter and took him for a checkup wherein he tested positive for FIV. He's otherwise healthy and happy so we're not too worried. Little fella came to us declawed and hates other cats so he'll be an inside only single cat so there's no risk of him spreading the virus.

Should we get health insurance for him? Or will all the insurance companies see he's FIV+ and go "lol no"?
