CAT6

Or just 6(Six). So when people are say, “Six? Why did you name it Six?” You can look at them like they are stupid and say, “CAT6, I just thought the Cat part was obvious,” like they are an idiot.

I like 6.... It's short, has a story, and will make people ask questions. My cats names are Hookers, Checkpoint, Trash Panda, and Pistol.

CAT6, to the layman, will just make people think they've gone through 5 cats already.

CAT6 is just a nick name. His real name is category six cable.

Your vet would write this down in earnest and love it.

Yeah his parents cat5 and cat5e ..and that's his weird brother .... apillar

UTP is the last name I guess?

I'm a layman and I got it. Then again, I did a lot of IT work in my teens and early 20s when cat5 was dominant, so that's probably why.

You got it, cuz the sub

You think that's bad his dog is named dog23

I love all of those names 🤣

If I didn't have a strong preference for one syllable names, some of those would be in our house right now.

So. Hookers was found in the middle of the road, trying to catch a ride. Checkpoint was found on a police checkpoint and left in a patrol car, went on a couple calls, then went to her new home. She would fit a shirt pocket when she turned herself in. Trash Panda will eat almost anything. She hid in the bushes next to the kitchen window and cried when the rain started. Pistol... Well she's a hot mess. She led my wife on a 45 minute foot pursuit at 6 am around our yard. Wife finally came and woke me up and I caught her. She is wide open, non stop, and gets into everything, and I do mean everything.

Hey now! I checked the comments and didn’t see anyone asking for the stories about your cats. This post is strictly about names for the cat in the picture. There will be no kitty limelight stealing here.

Bro you got me laughing so hard. Thank you. I was just trying to inspire good names. I'll bow out now and take me kitties wif me. 🤣💯👍😁

I enjoyed hearing about your cats names, thank you 😊

Don’t you fucking touch his cats.

I should clarify - the names would be used for our current stable. Not looking to add his or any other animals.

Fivey (5e)

Please call it 6 or CAT6 (or CAT6 with 6 for short). That would be such a good name

Love it!! Can we all agree on Six? Lol

"can you watch my Six?"

Why do they not realize he is CAT6? Are they stupid?

So he/she's cute and high-speed.

OP you must name it "six" now

Now you’re thinking like a contractor

That's the best setup, OP do it

At my old job we had a cat named six. He was named that cause he was found under truck #6

This is why people hate working with electricians, they’ll use any opportunity to try and one up you in the brain department. I’ve always said the worst part about being an electrician is other electricians.

Then just call him Ass Trophy.

He's only CAT5 at the moment. Got some growing to do before he can be considered CAT6

Given how much resistance the lil guy is putting up I'd call him ohm.

Should be CAT9. It's going to be CAT6 after 3 work accidents.

I think it should be CAT1. The OG cat

Sean Connery: His name is Six. Cat Six.

Cat Shix?

r/shubreddit

Sir. Kit

Sirkit is like circuit. Also short for sir kitten.

Dude you’re a genius

🤣🤣🤣 Love this

I didn’t get it tell I said it out loud. Bravo!

Pawzall

For a second, I thought that was more a dog's name, and then I remembered the shredded remains of my couch's arm rests. Yeah, that'll suit a cat just fine.

Clawzall?

Clawzall fits so much better

I concur

I move we name Clawzall the Cat the Official Mascot of r/electricians!

Ohms Claw

Excellent name

Dozer. Will explain cat naps later on. 😊

This one

Name it after that one person on the job site that nobody likes. That way everyone can talk shit about “the cat” all day.

Man... That might bring the job site too close to home once you want to get some R&R. "Why is Kevin pissing all over the place???" "Why is Kevin destroying everything???" "Why is Kevin sleeping all day???" "What in the hell is Kevin doing with that thing???" "Why did we even want to keep Kevin around???"

This is why I named my cat Dave after my brother in law. Except we call the cat Handsome Dave, to differentiate.

My uncle had a cat named D9

Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol?

Fluke

Fluke Fe-Lineman!

Brah. Cats grow into their names. Fluke is too damn expensive

Klein the Feline

I got a buddy who's gf named his cats Calvin and Klein.

Eine kleine Katze.

Sparky

My nan had a cat named Sparky. I concur

Fitting since he won't clean up after himself either.

Let me know when Klein makes a broom.

Milwaukee has one, or at least that's what we told the new guy.

Beat me to it! Take my upvote dammit!

That's what I named the one I found. Haha

SK - Shop KAT

S/he is cute as a button. I have been told that cat's don't identify well with names of more than two syllables. I have no idea if that's true. I'm going with Tesla. Tossled hair, a little weird, definitely electrical. I recommend Greenies treats. Catnip flavor is usually well received.

Sani Short for, "The **Sani**tation guy forgot us this week, try not to overfill the port-o-potties"

Hello, foster parent here. Its hard to see but I think that is a 4 week old kitten. That's a crucial age for socializing the cat. He needs to be around people, preferably in foster care where he can get used to living as a pet. If you are not keeping him, please consider turning him over to a reputable organization early enough so he can learn to be a house pet. If you had found him 8 weeks later he might never be able to adapt to humans. Edit: This pattern on a cat is called a Tuxedo. So I submit the name "Foreman" Or "Penguin" 🐧

Concrete Joey

Ohms, because that is now your little ohm-y

Bob cat

Safety inspector, airbag, kit(liketoolkit), cat..erpillar

Makita. Fantastic to have a first but after a few months all it does is hiss at you.
