It's Raing Cats and Cats
So we got this new cat. My mom's friend's sons found him in their garage. She told me this about a week ago, and asked if Rory and I wanted him. My first reaction was sure, but I made no attempt to go over and get him. So, my mom's friend ends up bringing him over and I grew quite attached to him in a short period of time. I like cats, their one of my soft spots. We have had him for about a few days now, and he has been little trouble. Except for when the other cat tries to kill him, there are so many not so very nice names I could refer to her by. She is the incarnate of the devil, in cat form. Also, he does have worms. I guess that's kind of problematic since it causes him to eat a lot and it is just straight up gross. However, the real problem I have come up with deals with what to name the cat. Nothing has really come to mind. Since his colors are black and white my mom started calling him all of the generic names: Oreo, Salt and Pepper, Tux (I don't really know where this one came from). However my brother and I shot her down pretty quick on those. My dads were no better, I cannot even remember what kind of inane things he had suggested, they boggled my mind with silliness. Eventually we all agreed upon Dempsey. Except now I think Patrick Dempsey. My brother chose it and I am not actually sure how much I like it anymore. So, if anyone has any ideas for cat names...I am open to suggestions

Like you Henry, I also have a soft spot for cats. However, mine may be a bit bigger than yours since I have five cats, not just two. As to cat names I do not really have that many. We got a kitten last year and we spent a while trying to name him before eventually coming up with Alvin. Some of the other names we considered though were Theo, Lyle, Moose or Felix so you can choose from those if you want. I can also sympathize with one of your cats always attacking the others. I don't think Alvin is the reincarnation of the devil, but he does seem to have a grudge against all the other cats. He frequently comes out of nowhere and just tackles them or traps them under something while he stands on top and swats at their heads if they try to escape.
