He has medium hair - it's mostly just long around his face and on his tail.

What's his story? How old is he and why did he not have a home? :(

He's 2 and a half, and he was a stray. However, I think he must've had a home before that, because when they found him, he'd already been neutered and microchipped - and besides, he's a total lovebug. The shelter I got him from (PAWS) made sure he had all his shots, got his teeth cleaned, and put him into foster care to re-socialize. He was super shy at the shelter, but I had a feeling he'd be happy with me...and so far it seems like I was right - he's already emerged from under the couch, and he's been exploring the whole place, and begging for petting. He even got on my lap once! :)

oh wow! that's great! i think a lot of times they're a bit depressed at shelters. scully was totally like that at the shelter but as soon as i got her home, she just wanted to be petted (well, and just pretend that the orange kitty in the other room didn't even exist).

O hai, kitteh!

His name could be Kitteh... I don't have any brilliant suggestions, though. :P

Or Cheezburger, clearly...

I'm noticing a few themes in names I like: (1) I like people names, and (2) The more geek backstory I can construct to the name, the better.

That said, here's a few I've been considering (in no particular order):
Fred
Thomas Jefferson
Louie (thanks Ma)
Jasper
Spalding (thanks Molly)
James (or maybe James Beard, James Madison...)
Stephen
Alfred

Right at the moment, I'm really liking Fred or Alfred, but that's just right at the moment...

I like Westley. All our best pets have been named after 80s characters from my childhood. My next pet will likely be named Peter Venkman.

You're making me think, V - what about Inigo Montoya? He could be Monty for short. :)

Yes my brother's pet jade plant was called Inigo Montoya. It was a great plant. I like Monty. ALOT.

Plus, you could say, "ah yes, these are my pets, Monty and Dewey," and that just sounds good.
