Cat Names Nigel and Molly

Nigel and Molly are brother and sister Himalayans.

Nigel? It's a long story from my wife's family. Molly? Well, she just looks like a Molly.

We think Nigel is a familiar. My wife has had cats most of her life and she has never seen a cat like Nigel. He will sit and stare at you, I mean intently stare, his eyes locked on yours.

I think we should have named him Pyewacket instead of Nigel. But he is very loving and will come up on our bed at night and cuddle with us, all the time purring like crazy.

Editor's note: Thanks so much, M.P., for submitting and adding to our list! If I ever adopted 3 kittens, I might name them Bell, Book and Candle. I'm sure someone else must have done that already, though.

That's funny about Nigel, since most cats don't like to have a staring contest. Then again, I usually blink and look away. :)

Perhaps you're right, and he's a fur-miliar. We'd love to see some photos!
