Note To Self... Don't Go To The Cat Shelter Unsupervised
Added 2023-08-05 02:49:02 +0000 UTCSo...I decided to poke my head into the local PetSmart where a local rescue has cats for adoption. I saw these two little guys who'd been abandoned there. I wasn't even thinking about getting a cat but I saw these guys. They weren't bonded but had obviously bonded there because they were looking after each other. Then I thought... well I was thinking about getting a cat soon. But how could I split these guys up? They were obviously buddies... so now I have two cats. I'm glad I took them both because instead of one of them being freaked out to be in a new home, they've already kind of taken over my place. As you can see they're pretty stressed out (not).
So now....I need all of your help to name these boys. The only names I have right now are Cheech and Chong.....
But I'm open to suggestions so if you have any I'd love to hear them.
In the meantime here's a few pictures of my new buddies!!

2023-08-05 14:01:30 +0000 UTCThank you for commenting this! I was under the same impression and thought the names were some what racist.. but then you prompted me to google it. I had no idea they were a comedy duo.π Thanks again!

2023-08-05 10:49:27 +0000 UTCThey are adorable!!! π π I used to joke with my Dad that if I got a pair of cats (that didn't already have names), I would name one Buddy and the other Lightning. Their nick names would be Bud Lite, which was my Dad's favorite drink, I figured then he wouldn't mind the cats so much if they were named after his favorite drink lmao π

2023-08-05 10:44:12 +0000 UTCI would like Miguel for the red cat and Bruno for the grey one. I had also decided to get a cat but for my dog. A friend watched him for 5 minutes and lost him. He was only 3 months old and had only been with me a week. I've been wandering the streets for two days and nights where he might be. The first night there was a bad storm. I got a call the second night that he had been spotted on the train tracks. I ran straight there and actually saw him after a short time, but he was far away and immediately ran away again because I wasn't alone. He is very shy and afraid of other people. but there were cats all around him. I managed to see him a few more times too, but with the other people around me, no chance. One cat always went ahead and another as backup. Two others stood with him. A cat squad. they must have protected him during the storm. When it started storming again the second night I was on my way home and was very unhappy, but at least I saw him and knew he was fine so far. I was on the phone with someone and was walking along the platform towards home and suddenly something nudged me from behind. When I turned around, my puppy was standing there. he found me I picked him up and carried him all the way home. I've never been happier carrying 40 pounds across the town. Since the cats had protected him so well, i want him to have a cat.

2023-08-05 07:07:37 +0000 UTCCongrats on becoming a father or friend of cats!ππΈ I love cats more than any animals in the world, and I'm so happy that Hank has welcomed a cat (and two of them!π), and it's wonderful for them and for Hank to have a new family! Their names seemed unusual to me (I thought you chose the Chinese name and why because of Chongπ), so I had to look them up to find out what they meant, but I think they fit their backgrounds very wellπ But...how about Leo and Marty or Gene and Paul?π And I was hoping that one day Hank would make an audio of Vet Hank (if you haven't done it already). So...looking forward to it!
Hitomi
2023-08-05 07:04:41 +0000 UTCI second Jake and Elwood. 2nd choice is Butch & Sundance, because they're clearly outlaws.
Jennie
2023-08-05 07:02:21 +0000 UTCYay, congratulations on your new roomies! π» The two already seem to be at home, totally relaxed. In time they will surely tell you their real names, but Cheech & Chong are cool names! Mhhh, I think first Macallan. π So one Mac and the other Allan or Fire & Ice. I wish you three a lot of fun getting to know each other. And please keep us posted on what's going on with you three.π
Becca
2023-08-05 06:52:51 +0000 UTCI was thinking Greek! Thor and Loki purfect names for these cuties! π
Mizzy
2023-08-05 06:36:11 +0000 UTCThey'll be great company for each other and you! Hmmm π€ Names.... how about: Freddie Meowcury and Elvis Purrsley or Pancho and Lefty, but my favourite names are Gibson and Marshall πΌπ X Bee
Bee
2023-08-05 06:20:29 +0000 UTCThey are very cute. And cats choose their humans. Not tje other way around. I speak out of experiance. π€£ Names.... Hmmm... *looks at the picture* Fox and Smoke. Jack and Oreo. Dusk and Pebble. So many options...

Anita
2023-08-05 05:10:02 +0000 UTCThis whole story warms my heart, and your feline friends look adorable. I would name them Iggy (Pop) and David (Bowie) just because I loved the friendship between them. Congratulations on your new roommates Hank π.

Marissa (T)
2023-08-05 04:52:02 +0000 UTCCongratulations on the new family members! My sister introduced me to a chihuahua named Cannoli so that is the ideal pet name for me. Maybe something similar to what you associate them with? We named our cat Alia after the Dune character since they were an outcast, then we realized he was a male, so Ollie is now our favorite little man. He's a goblin and we love him.

Iβm sure that the three of you fellas are going to be amazing friends. And they look so at home. They know they hit the lottery in the Cat Dad department. I think that Cheech & Chong are excellent names! My first thought was Jake & Elwood. Theyβd be The Blues Brothers! ππππ I also really love Les & Paul, and the name Marshall. But if one was Marshall, what would the other be named? π€ Bottom line, Iβm sure theyβll tell you their right names in their personalities. I canβt wait to see more pictures of them & hear all about them from you πππ

Miry Kuchiki
2023-08-05 03:54:49 +0000 UTCMy first thought was Eddie and Alex for the Van Halen brothers. Or Smokey and the Bandit? Hope there was a scratching post and catnip purchase as well to deter them from the guitars. ...And what about Tyke and Winnie; are they all getting along? :}
Verity
2023-08-05 03:44:14 +0000 UTCMaybe Eddie and Alex?

They're lucky kitties, indeed! π₯°πΊπΊAnd Cheech and Chong are awesome names! ππ» As for suggestions, like Helena, my first thought was Les and Paul. Some other musical names came to mind as well... Tokai and Tele Oscar and Stanley So many names to choose from! But I think once you really get a sense of their personalities, their names will come to you. Whatever you go with will be great!

2023-08-05 03:20:31 +0000 UTCHaha that's how I ended up with my baby Mochi. I poked my head into my local shelter and ended up adopting her less than 20 minutes later. Best decision of my life!

I was strong when I went but I was so tempted to take an older kitty named Pickles (he looked like a lion and he was a polydactyl kitty with THUMBS!!!!ππ₯Ί) Regarding names....maybe Phineas and Ferb?π

2023-08-05 02:56:20 +0000 UTCThis is wonderful news, Hank, Darling! ! I was thinking of suggesting an audio where you surprise me with a kitty after saying no for a while. How about Lennon and McCartney, Elton and Bernie or Henley & Frey?
Alyssa
2023-08-05 02:56:19 +0000 UTCWhat cute babies!! They look so content~ Ozzy for the Grey cat and Bowie for the Orange cat.

Janelle Randall
2023-08-05 02:54:18 +0000 UTCI love Cheech and Chong. They definitely look the part. And there's no way you could split these two handsome, lovable guys up! You did the right (and best) thing. And I can't go into PetSmart unsupervised either, I end up co-founding my own rescue. πβ₯οΈπΎπ
