Name for New Family Member
Submitted by Dreamweaver on Fri, 2008-01-04 08:07
We lost one of our two loved cats (Plato) before Christmas to FILV (Feline Infectious Luchemea Virus) even though he had his injection .
After some tears, we decided we would get a new friend for our other female cat (Athena), so we rescued this lil guy from the RSPCA death row.
We're having a hard time deciding on a name (looked up billions!) - the closest we have is Byron.
We are not after an obvious name and NO - 'craybait' is NOT on the list :)
Any suggestions?

I REALLY appreciate the input guys - terrific -
Definately right there Neander .
Hades! eeeee gads Jodes - You'll give me nightmares.
Oh, and there could be a winner there with Perseus - because it's also the name of one of the Taree battleships in Stargate / Stargate Atlantis - I'm a HUGE fan (nut) of both!
Thanks again folks! :)
