Male Kitten Names - Ginger

Hello, my name is Robbin and I'm 18 years old. At school my friend named Rakesh asked me if I wanted a cat to take care of. I said yes.

After school I saw the cat for the first time, he was soooooooo beautiful! In the car he was very quiet, he sat on my lap and started to go to sleep. When we arrived home I took him to my room and fed him kitten food and cow's milk. Later, he seemed really unhappy, he jumped around like crazy and was mewing. I was so scared that something might be wrong with him, so I decided to go and check the Internet about this behavior.

On the Internet I saw DO NOT GIVE YOUR KITTEN COW'S MILK AS IT CAN CAUSE STOMACH ACHE. I ran upstairs to change the milk to water, and since then he has been fine.

When I was trying to think of male kitten names I thought about Kaiser, then Juli, but neither seemed right. But then my friend thought of Ginger, which is his color and I really liked. So Ginger is now his name!


Reply from Liz (editor): Thank you very much for sharing your story. You're absolutely right about not feeding cats cow's milk - they do find it hard to digest and it can give them tummy ache.
