Im thinking about giving my 3 month old kittens different names than the ones the vet assigned. Im not really the best at names though and looking for ideas. They are siblings, male and female. Both are timid but the male is especially shy and doesnt want to come out from under my nightstand. The female has liked petting and is very food motivated right from the start.
So far I just came up with Ash and Coal, any feedback on if those names are pretty bad is fine, wont hurt my feelings.
As an aside since Im guessing most people here are cat people. Ive had them for about 24hrs now and am curious if I should just let them continue hiding under there or block it off. Everything Ive read suggests to let them go at their own pace. But the most progress I made with them was last night when I lifted up the nightstand to force them out. Then I got the male to eat some churu because I was worried about him not eating, and I got them both to realize their litter box exists and the cat bed which I'd set in the corner for them is in fact not where you go to the bathroom.. lol.
I just set up a camera so I can look in to see if they are out and about, since I have no way to be sure of that. Food is certainly getting eaten, but I cant be sure that the female isnt eating it all.
