I'm getting two foster cats today. They were abandoned in an apartment complex when their owners moved and ended up living in a colony of feral cats that the organization I work with manages. I'm going to be keeping them until there is space in the animal shelter to put them in.
I haven't met them yet, but apparently one is a long-haired calico and the other is a big Siamese mix. They're supposedly very, very beautiful.
I have a gigantic two-story cat cage in my bedroom for them to stay in for their first few nights, and I'm getting it all set up nice and cozy for my new guests.
I'll be getting them in a couple of hours, and there will be pictures. Lots of pictures.
Also, once I get them and know the gender of the Siamese I'm gonna need help with names. The nerdier the better.

Is there such thing as a non-beautiful Siamese?
Also, name them Curt and Dolph.

Ooh, nice! Siamese are high on the list of cats I would get, if I ever got a cat.

If they're a girl and a boy, I demand that they be named Jemima and Sven.

You need help with names? Really? I figured Dude & Buster or Crofty & Trenty, etc.. would already be happening.

One of their names has to be Boosh.
I will say, having two kitties is awesome. I've had two for about three months (Killer and Ramona, based on an old Looney Tunes cartoon and Scott Pilgrim), and it's awesome. They'll fight each other constantly, but then they'll be best friends.

The kitties have arrived! Pics coming soon. I'm giving them a couple of minutes to settle down in their cage.
I'd totally name them after the Dudebusters but the calico's a girl :<

Aren't most calicos female regardless?
And the males are sterile. Or something. I could be remembering this totally wrong.

Yeah, all calicos are female. The only male calicos are actually intersexed with male genitals.
...I could go into a scientific explanation as to why but I'm sure I'm the only person in the world who's nerdy enough to care about the genetics behind cat colors :B

How about naming one Harley, and the other one Quinn?
Or better yet, Mr. J and Harley.
Wait, Demented and Harley!
I better stop myself.
