12 cats is a lot of cats to have, and they all ought to have names. Obviously, the first and second will be named One and Two, but in the vagueness of "...and then get ten more cats," I've left myself a lot of leeway. Here's what I'm thinking:

Third cat: Tree (Is this too twee?? One, Two, Tree. I think it's funny.)
Fourth cat: Fuck You (I'm pretty decided about this one. What if it gets lost though?!? And what about applying for a pet license?)
Fifth Cat: Something literary/historical, because witches and librarians always have cats named Ophelia or Agamemnon.
Sixth Cat: I'm thinking I'll name this cat something like Always Already or The Other. Then I might have to hate it on principle.
Seventh Cat: ??
Eighth Cat: Prague, Algiers, Barcelona, Madras, Auckland, Montreal... I always find lists of cities really inspiring, but once I pick one the name will be a list one item long, and that isn't much of a list.
Ninth Cat: Cooking or Gardening or Watching Television? Maybe Sitting.
Tenth Cat: ??
Eleventh Cat: I feel like I should name one of my cats after one of my Ancestors, but I'm already named after my one grandparent who has died, so unless someone else dies, I'll just have to make do. I could use Might Could, because my Grandmother Doris says that a lot, as in "you might could set the okra on the table for me."
Twelfth Cat: It's hard to pick the last name. Like, what do you name your last child? un+1?
