I can haz kat

I got a cat today. Inherited from a co-worker whose son has sever allergy issues.

He is a big cat, mostly black with a dozen or so white hairs on his chest. He has been called Fat Boy. This name will be going. He needs a new one. Suggestions welcome.

He's a very Zen cat, which is good. I have been told to expect that he will sleep on the bed, given the opportunity. He's been okay on his own for a couple days at his old house, so that's good.

He is currently exploring his new home. I will soon be off to get litter, possibly a carrier, and maybe some sort of toy-stuff. And food for me.

Welcome nnew kitty! Maybe you could name him Buddha.

He seems to be settling in well.

My family has a tradition of naming pets after Tolkein stuff, so I don't know if I'm comfortable going with something non-fandom.

KITTY! (I should maybe find another cat icon...)

Black kitties have always been my favorite. And he sounds like a lovely fellow.

YAY new kitty!

He's now decided the living room is safe, as well as the bedroom (particularly the under-the-bed bit)

Does he know his old name? If yes, Phantom has a similar sound and might be more acceptable to you. Farley or Falstaff get the "Fa.. " at least.

He doesn't seem particularly responsive to it. No more so than "kitty kitty" in The Voice.
