Names - H.O.P.E. Safehouse
April 2013 H.O.P.E. Safehouse 1911 Taylor Avenue Racine, WI 53403 262.634.4571 ~ Names ~ For those of you who frequent our web page or are connected with HOPE through the social media, you get to see a lot of pictures of our rescues. We thought you also may wonder how these animals get their names. Our data is more easily accessed if every critter has a different name so when the animals come with names like “Kelly”, or “Molly”, we need to get creative on the spelling. We keep a name book at hand to make sure we do not have duplicates but this is becoming ever more difficult as the years go on. To date we have “Keli”, “Kelli”, “Kelie”, “Kelly”, “Kellee” and “Kellie”. There are times where it is unavoidable to change a name but we don’t like to do that. We feel these poor animals no longer have anything that belongs to them; no family, no home, no siblings, no toys, basically nothing but their names, and we just can’t take that away from them. Many of the animals coming in to HOPE Safehouse are from high kill shelters who don’t know their names. These abandoned pets are either assigned a number or get a computer generated name from the Petfinder site. Certainly not a moniker the animal recognizes or responds to. Therefore, we set about the task of giving them a name that is appropriate. Sometimes it will describe their demeanor, like “Wiggles”, “Happy” or “Kanga” ( as in kangaroo). Sometimes it portrays their color like” Chocolate” or “Licorice”. If we intake a litter of kittens, we will try keep all their names similar, like “Citron”, “Citrus”and “Cita”. A litter of puppies were named after states, “Arizona”, “Virginia” and California Girl”. If a group of dogs or cats comes in at the same time from a shelter but are not related, we will give them names all starting with the same letter like “Bebe”, “Blanche”, “Buster” and “BooBoo”. This helps us a great deal when we try to remember details or origin of one of the thousands of animals we have rescued. Sometimes the name reflects when they were found, as in “Tuesday”, or “Satter” and “Daey” for the day of the week. “Angel” is a cat found at Christmas, “Taylor” was found on taylor avenue, “Lou”, “Easy” and “Anna” came from Louisanna, and “Drago” was found by Draeger Langendorf funeral home. Pets have also been named after the human that rescued them as in “Danni”, “Trog”, “Austin”, “June” and “Becky”. We were accused of being a little crazy in naming a litter of kittens “Eenie”, “Meenie”, “Minie”, “Mo” and “No”. A mom cat we named “Wen” and her kittens “Why”, “Who” and “Because”. An adult male cat arriving around the same time was named “What” and 3 extra dogs on a transport that we hadn’t planned on were named “Ex”, Wy”, and “Zee”. Further exploits into the process of assigning names include “Wayside”, who was found at a wayside (duh), “Highwire”, a cat stranded on a telephone pole, “Half Dock”, who had only half a tail and “Freeway” ( you can figure that one out). I think we’re pretty clever sometimes although there have been some . . . interesting names along the way. “Kirzon Dax” was a young pitbull mix rescued around the time I was very into Star Trek. “Cluster” was the last dog named in a transport that went less than smooth, and “Fred the Head”, well, he had a big head! There are also those animals we named along the way that I can only wonder what drugs we were using at the time. “Pixie Big Foot”, “Red Bucky”, “Spikey Nakita”, “Fluffy Wicket”, “Sadie Fus”, “Door” and “Monkey Face”. Yea I know, scary stuff. We can’t guarantee we will use them ( or they may already be taken) but if you have some name suggestions for future animals, we would love to hear from you!

Thank you to Scott Thomas & Kathy Herman-Thomas for paying some with their handlers that gave an animal rescue presentation to approximately 400 students and of our medical bills. teachers at Raymond Elementary School. Thank you to the person who donated a Thunder Shirt for our cats. Some people are very defensive about a cat’s right to live outdoors. They argue that keeping a cat inside is cruel - evidenced by their cat’s meowing at the door, or at least inconvenient – since their cat has learned to use the neighborhood as a litter box. However, experts insist that indoor-only cats are perfectly happy when people make an effort to spend time with them and make sure they get enough stimulation. Isn’t that our job with any pet? More importantly, indoor cats live an average of 15 years while their outdoor counterparts live, on average, only 5. Outdoor cats risk being hit by a car, getting lost, being taken to a shelter, falling into the hands of abusive humans, succumbing to extreme weather, ingesting poison, being infested with ticks and fleas (which they can bring indoors), and contracting any number of maladies such as rabies, worms, Feline Leukemia Virus, feline distemper, ringworm, or upper respiratory infections. And remember, outdoor cats are not at the top of the neighborhood food chain. They risk being attacked and eaten by larger animals. I stopped my car one dark night to pick up my neighbor’s cat who I saw walking loose close to her home, only to watch her run away with a fox on her heels. She was never seen again. www.hopesafehouse.org Further, let’s consider an outdoor cat’s effect on other species. Cats have a natural instinct to hunt and chase, so those that go outdoors will naturally stalk birds and small animals in their neighborhood. Sadly, scientists estimate that every year in the United States alone, cats kill 1-4 billion birds, and up to 20 billion mammals, including rabbits, squirrels, and chipmunks. Cats don’t need to be outside to satisfy their instincts. They can just as effectively be stimulated by chasing a toy mouse or laser beam around the house. Converting an outdoor cat into an indoor cat starts with spaying or neutering, which will reduce not only the mating instinct but also the tragedy of overpopulation. Provide a good-sized litter box in a private, comfortable area. Offer a scratching post and spend time with your cat, providing it opportunities to exercise and play with toys. If your cat still longs for the outdoors, consider building a “catio”, a screened enclosed outside space that allows your cat to spend time safely outdoors. Or, teach your cat to spend time with you outdoors on a leash. Be patient and your cat will likely grow to love you more and forget its former life of dodging dogs and cars. For your cat’s happiness, health and safety, it’s worth it!
