It's kittens a-go-go today.
This is my friend Charly's kitten.
She doesn't even have a name yet.
I think Daisy or Mimi or Lola.
Charly thinks Maisy.
What do you think?

Maisy suits a kitten, but not the aloof cats they grow into. It's too cutesy. I intend to call my cat Cordelia. Or Marge. I approve of Lola, though.

Sorry - didn't realise you had dibs.
I knew dreadful woman called Maggie - couldn't do that to a kitty. And then there's Thatcher. No; may as well just call her Kick-me.-

Ahem, Maggie was my nanna's name.
Actually, she was rather vile too.
Oh, call her Apple.

Au contraire, I find Gwyneth to be a superb name for a cat! Gwen is even better!

If she were a welsh cat would be fab, but she lives in Leyland.-

I've been passing them on as they've come in and she promises to read blog over weekend too. I think Apple is lovely.

She is absolutely adorable!
A Swedish name would maybe be "Maja", "Missan" or "Molly".
You would probably smile if you knew how we named our cats!

I know quite.. but glad you do becuase in one of the early books there was this line about P&J playing and then...
'And Pat looked on'.
What the hell did that mean? i don't remember ever getting a satisfactory answer out of a teacher, it annoyed the hell out of me when I was five and it still irks me. -

Not Maisy... I'll think of my niece.
Though, come to think of it, she still has that cutesy look, befitting a Maisy, despite becoming teen aged.-

She's doing well then, most teenagers I know have a surly look, befitting a little smart arse. Having said that I'd adopy my mate's daughter, Millie, in a flash.
She just makes me laugh and laugh... like, she turned round to my mate and said: 'Don't worry, mum, I'm not going to make the same mistakes my sister did.' Fantastic. Her sister was almost paralytic with rage!-

I don't think we've much longer before the surly stage! But, we may be lucky... her brother is doing it brilliantly, so he may be doing it for both of them.

Does he do that funny grunt language? My step brothers only spoke that at home well into their twenties.

I feel I have to comment...
Thank you to all, it's been a very interesting read!!
I'm afraid to say the original name has stuck - Maisey it is! (even if it's spelt different, but who am I to conform to standards!)
She's still adorable, has learnt to purr but still squeaks -rather than meows!!
Splodge! Don't go with a trad name, go with descriptive!
Aaaaaawwwwwwww! soooo cute!
