2) Gray and white short hair with pink nose. Isn’t she sweet? So delicate. (And she looks so much like Priss!)

4) Tri-color Tabby (or Calico) — and no, Jenny will not be accepted as a suggestion…

To participate in the contest, just leave a comment with your suggestions for names. Number them as above, so I will know which name is meant for which kitten. At the end of the month, I will gather the suggestions into a poll and have a vote on the final names–though I may extend the deadline if there are not enough entries. If your kitten name is chosen, you will win acknowledgment credit in the book, and a surprise fitting for the challenge. 🙂

    Nameless? I kinda think “Nameless” might be a good name for a cat. I mean, she’s going to ignore whatever you name her anyway…

    She’s so delicate that the thing that stands out to me is her face is so triangular. I might go as simple as ‘Trinity’..found a list of triple goddesses but I don’t know her personality.. I like Selene, Artemis, Aphrodite, Muse, Luna, Minerva, Bast.. and I might even go with something else but I don’t know what she acts like.. ACTUALLY.. I think my favorite might be Muse because it sounds like ‘mews’.. get it!!??
    Depending on personality- Jet if he runs around, Ash if he’s a fighter or Shade if he’s a fraidy-cat.
    Harleen- Reminds me of a harlequin, which led me to Harley Quinn.. which led me to her real name which is less of a mouthful than Harlequin.. or Colombina which was the harlequin’s love interest.
