I'm Gonna Be a Mommy!!
My librarian's cat had kittens and they need a home, so I am going to have two new babies. They are both orange and white striped, and I get to take them home in about three weeks. I'll post pictures as soon as I have some. I decided to get two so they can keep each other company when I'm at work. I am so excited!! The only other pets I've had have been fish, so it will be nice to have a pet that is huggable. Now I need help finding names. I don't want to do something common, like Pumpkin or Tiger, but I do want a name that has to do with their orange coloring. I was thinking maybe something fiery, like Spark, Flame, or Ember. Any ideas??

Flicka. Or Peeve. Then you can introduce your cat as your "friend" or your "pet."
Too much time on my hands...that's not true. I think searching for cat names is way fun. Here's what I came up with: (you didn't mention whether they were girls or boys, so I found names for both and tried to put them into categories that I thought you'd be tickled by.)
Sunkist/Fanta (both orange sodas)
Koi/Kinyo (Japanese orange fish)
Ember/Flame (fire-related)
Citrine/Topaz/Amber/Coral (orange gems)
Tangerine/Valencia/Seville/Clementine (varieties of oranges)
Autumn/Summer
Butterscotch/Caramel/Marzipan/Toffee (orangey-colored candy)
Custard/Puddin/Ginger/Cinnamon/Ambrosia (other possible orange edibles)
Marigold/Dandelion (orange flowers)
Orlando/Eldora (for your Spanish influences, both having to do with gold)
Chyou (autumn)/Genji (gold)/ Xia (glow of the sunrise)--all Chinese (for your desire to adopt a little Chinese girl
Edan (full of fire)/ Flynn (heir of the redheaded one)--for your love of the Irish
Doreen('golden' in French) and Vanna (golden-colored in Cambidian) Kira (light of the sun) Lainey (sunray) Adoni (Aboriginal for 'sunset')--other language choices
Apollo/Apollonia (Greek God of the sun)
Rojo and Raja (spanish for 'red')
Kula ('golden one')and Keahi (golden)--both Hawaiian, for your destined vacation there
Okay, that's what I got. I hope you like a pair or that reading them inspires another interesting set of names you like. Congratulations on your cat momma-ness. www.crazycatladies.org
