Yeah, all my boys are rescues, too. There are just too many in the world who would be homeless without us. He's such a cutie!! I'm sure it won't take long to get that sad look off his little face.

I love Samuel...Sammy for short. But if you don't think of a name right away, don't sweat it too much. The perfect name will come to you when you get to know him a little better.

Yeah, I'm starting to think it might take me a little while to come up with a name for him. I love a lot of the names people have thrown out there, but nothing at the moment is really sticking! If that makes sense! One of the girls at work here suggested Max.....

DD thinks since he is kind of oak colored, you could call him Oaky Dokie! Or Simba, or even Simba's daddy Mufasa! I don't know what the nickname would be..Mu? My pets nicknames often are unrelated to their names any how, like Garfield, aka Stink Stink Double Stink! LOL!

Aslan is a cool idea...I'll have to save that for if I get another foster litter...

By the way, orange or ginger boys are supposed to be the nicest...I know my Gar is a lovebug!

I just love Ginger kitties! They are so affectionate and loving. My Rascal is a ginger and white 5 yo boy and he is such a smooch!

Awww...he's so cute! Congrats on the new baby!

Well when you were saying that he was part Rag doll and now seeing he's ginger, go for Andy! As in Raggety Andy!

I know so cliche!

I'm liking the "old man name" theme. I thought of the name Fred. Esp since it goes with "Fred & Ginger" and he's a ginger cat, get it? Okay it's not that good, but I like the name. I also knew a cool cat named George.

OOOhhh, Ari means lion? Coz he kind of reminds me of a little lion......Which is why I thought Aslan, but there isn't anything I can shorten it to/nick name it!

He's so precious and adorable even if he does look sad right now. Now don't laugh, but I think Sweetie is a good name for such a cute little guy!

I like the name Samuel for this cat. You could call him Sam. I had a cat like him once and he was an outside stray. We called him "Shopcat" because he stayed out back near my hubby's shop and kept him company while he was out there doing things. He developed some problems and I had to take him to the vet. When asked what his name was there, I hated to say Shopcat, so I quickly said Samuel and that he was he became known as. I vote for Samuel as a name for your kitty.
By the way, he is beautiful. Congratulations.
