New kitten in the family, 2 months old. Not sure on a name yet.

Not even sure on gender, TBH. Female looking face, but that doesn't mean much at 2 months.

Whole-ass human name. Samantha Taylor [your last name] or something like that

My two cents: Wait a little while to get to know her before you pick a name. She'll tell you. :)

Do an online poll or if you don't have time choose: Kitty McKittyface.

Can anyone know a kitten's gender? To find out the sex, check between the hind legs. Looks like a Sasha. Or Meowchelle Obama.

Just pretend the cat is nonbinary and call them a gender neutral name, like "Sam".

Earnest Petunia Whirl if a boy. Earnest/Ernie for short.

Carolina Dorothy Mantooth: Whiskers or Dorothy for short.

I had a cat that looked like this. I named him Edd, mostly because he was special. But he picked his name. This little one will too. :) so excited for you!

Just don't do what my older brother did and name the cat Lolita.

Seriously.

My parents were actually okay with that too.

Looks like a good “Squirrel.”

The kitty is cute but…

Fuck off with your disgusting foot. You open beers with that toe? Jesus, just point the camera differently, nobody wants to see it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

LOL... I'm not allowed to do my own toes unfortunately. Docs orders.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I personally don't mind the foot included in the pic, but please trim your toenails

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I wish, not allowed to. Have to see a specialist because of foot deformaties. :(
