Sphynx
So I am going to be picking this little girl up in October. Was wondering if you guys could help me with a name? I want something unusual since she is an unusual feline.

Re: Sphynx
She is indeed unusual.

I would suggest Batwoman, since she looks like a bat. Otherwise, the name Shirley just popped into my head.

Re: Sphynx
I'd say Dumbo, but that sounds insulting? just thinking Disney...you need more dignity than that! At least you have alot of time to think about it! This site has nearly endless names and their meanings: (I like to use exotic foreign names for my snakes, with cool meanings!)
Baby Names - Boys, Girls Names. International, Foreign, Meanings

Re: Sphynx
Awwe.
I've always wanted a sphynx.

700 and up is a bit pricy for a kitty.


Get her a sparkly collar and call her Dutchess.
She sure looks like royalty to me!
