Title: Railway and train related names please?
Post by: kcsunshine on April 25, 2010, 19:12:03 PM
Our soon to be homed with us pussycat girl was abandoned at Egham Railway Station before Battersea were notified. Can anyone think of female railway/station names? Or failing that, Disney female names as our other cat is called Simba.

I'd go for Disney. Nala to match Simba?

Or here is a list of girl names from Disney characters:

Railways names.... gee, that's a toughie.  :scared:

The railway cat from the T.S. Elliot book was called Skimbleshanks.... bit of a mouthful for kiddies.  :evillaugh: The famous Paddington Station cat was called Tiddles  :tired:

However... look what you find when you google 'Railway Tortie'  :innocent: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article4009668.ece

Strange change of tack; we are now thinking of calling her Ariel as it's fits Disney and Shakespeare bills!

Clever!  :sneaky:
But we have landed on Ariel now.  :Luv: Thanks for Lion tip off too - did not know that connotation, but works so well!
Was sorely tempted to add a beautiful ragdoll they've just had at Battersea to our list too, but they'll only let you home one at a time if they're 'single' cats.  :P

Its sensible not to add 2 seperate strange cats at once as it can end up with issues settling them in and finding their place in the 'pack'.
I know dogs are packs but i do think cats have a similar way of sorting the group out  :innocent:

Not all Torties are naughty .... but they all seem to have "Tortietude"  (it's like attitude but better  ;) )
