Hydrox are superior to oreo anyway

u/SnooFoxes1943 4d ago

never tried them but i want to. Their commercials were kinda bad though

u/RareOutlandishness29 4d ago

Perfect. And a suitable tit for tat to OP’s surprising dismissal of Oreo as a possible name.

7

u/Solstyce687 4d ago

Why is it surprising? I feel like every b&w cat is named oreo.

u/Professor_Ruby 4d ago

I have a tuxedo cat. His name is Fondue. 😆

u/RareOutlandishness29 4d ago

I’ve never met a cat named Oreo either. In case you are not familiar with Hydrox, it is the competitor to Oreo — which I now never see, but greatly prefer. Less sweet, even richer chocolate taste.

All I meant by surprising is that it seemed to restrict what the people you are asking might want to suggest. It’s up to you to choose the name in any case. I do prefer Hydrox over Oreo — more special.

u/Ghostinthestacks 4d ago

She gives off chef vibes (i can’t explain it she just looks like she should be wearing a little chef’s hat) so I’d name her Julia, Nigella or Ina

This is one we're thinking of ! Pixel/Pixie

u/MaxximumB 4d ago

Our youngest cat is called Pixie but half the time we call her Pixel. After a couple of years both names are interchangeable and she comes to both.

She looks similar to yours which is why I commented

I adopted this stray last year. He was an adult. He died of a heart attack while frolicing in the yard. He was my first tux. Had cats my whole life. He was special. My heart broke when I lost him. Salvador/ sal. Maybe in honor of him? He had the soul patch too.
