i wanted a kitten from my daughters,friends sister,i asked for a male but didnt really mind,I was soooo stuck on the name alfie before i`d even saw him,i went to have a look at my new addition to the family and promptly changed his name from Alfie to Oscar and its stuck.I think the best way to name a cat is to go and see them and see what name jumps to mind,im soooo glad i called him Oscar as he looks more like an Oscar than an Alfie.
