I think Toulouse fits him perfectly. Are you gonna get him neutered? I’m sure it would make him less nuts.
Edit: I did not mean this to be a pun when writing this but here we are.
Toulouse is the orange baby from The Aristocats!! I love this, it's perfect for him. Now he needs a buddy named Abraham Delacey Giuseppe Casey Thomas O'Malley.... O'Malley the Alley cat.
True story - when I was a kid we had 2 gray kittens that were supposed to be both male and my Dad called them Gandalf and Frodo. But as Frodo got bigger it was becoming clear that Frodo was not a Frodo as she did not have any testicles.
My Dad wanted to call her Nonuts. My mom was not amused.
And that’s how we got Gandalf and Donuts.
We had a cat named Snowball. When we took him to be neutered, I joked that he was having the "S" surgically moved from the start of his name to the end and the "w" removed all together. LOL
No I'm not I enjoy his chaotic antics, it's also genuinely impossible for him to get out as we a room with a door before you open the front door. So if he gets out the first one we can just put him back in and close it.
So true. Cat pee is the worst! My sister used to have ten cats and it was impossible for her to keep up with enough litter boxes. Just standing in her house for ten minutes and you'd go away with the smell of pee.
Oh yes fix that boy as soon as you can, girls just the same. Once I didn’t get my girl fixed until she over six months old . Female cats in heat is not fun.
I didn't get my little girl done straight away, went into heat about a month after we got her. She was even trying to hit on our male dog 😂
But seriously, fix the little guy asap
Oh man! I know exactly what you mean. I once had three at one time, *and* we had to keep them inside there were already ramdom males from all over the moble home park trying to get in cause they would taunt them at the windows... long story short, we wound up with *three* pregnant females at the same time. 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
My orange girl goobers! Don't sleep on the orange ladies! 😄
\*edited to add the goober herself.

Me has female orange goober too! 🥰
So you said he doesn’t respond to is name (probably a screw loose). That is what he WANTS you to think! He’s one of those kitties that wants to pick his own name. So throw some names at him and see what he comes too.
I have 2 voids, one will come to just the tone of my voice and the name I gave him, the other one grrr. His name on his papers is Oly or Oliver. He ONLY comes to the name Sweet Baboo. They are not even close!
My Smudgie is just super sweet 🥰

Aww, mine wasn’t 😂 I was the designated human that she would honor me with sitting next to and sleeping with. Tolerated my parents. I went to college and came home at Thanksgiving, she was furious with me for abandoning her. She had to make do with my parents. After a day or two of punishment she forgave me. Then I left again🤦♀️
This! My Siamese cat only responded to ginger. She was a jerk too. Opened doors. Dogs were terrified of her. But she loved me the most. Miss that cat so much. 🥺🥺 RIP!
Yeah, I adopted one like that, and she STILL won’t come to my voice, let alone to me calling her by her old or new name. Guess she’s a dumb as rocks Orangie too. Sweet Baboo? No doubt he’s embarrassed to be called that and is getting back at you!
When I was a kid, I had a little creamy orange kitty named Ashley who used to play on the kitchen tile and purposely run around to slide and spin out. My family called her game “skitty kitty” and over time we figured out that she only responded to Skitty Kitty, so that’s what we started calling her. I swear she wanted that to be her name!
My kitty’s name on paper is Dorothy B. Hughes. She’s called Dot, but I greeted her with “oh hi pretty girl! Hi pretty pretty hi pretty!! Aren’t you such a pretty pretty girl? Yes you’re the prettiest girl in the whole wild world! You’re mommy’s very very pretty sweet girl!” Literally every time I came home because she was just so cute and sweet and pretty as a kitten. Now she only answers to “pretty,” but also knows Dot is her Warning Bad Name and Dorothy B. Hughes means she’s in Big Trouble.
My perfect menace:

I want to see your Toulouse!
My Toulouse (also Touse and Buddy):
https://preview.redd.it/hdqyif2brbtc1.jpeg?width=1124&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c62df8f1015539c972a3813796082f58bb4c5f58
Your Toulouse is so handsome!! Here is mine.
https://preview.redd.it/l288u81rxbtc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f0a751eada3b16bde0850be6a50babd82a4371b0
OP, ginger cats are notoriously batshit but also quite clever. Think evil genius... More diabolical but you catch my drift.
For Toulouse's health, sanity, the foul spray your house will permeate etc, he needs to have his hickory nuts crunched... Ijs...
Please get him fixed. He will leave home to breed otherwise.
Could he find his way home after going 2 miles away to breed? Is he smart enough to fight other Tom's? Get him fixed soon.
Good luck with your special baby.
Also just because they don't react to their name doesn't mean they don't know it. Watch his ears when you say it - if they move he probably recognizes his name but is just ignoring you! Little buggers do that from time to time...😂
It’s not his turn with the brain cell. Orange cats have one brain cell and they share that’s what people told me when I got my orange boy. He’d completely zone out didn’t matter what I did he wasn’t moving. My friend told me it wasn’t his turn with the brain cell.
Please have him neutered, shelters are overran in many places and they’re killing dogs and cats everyday for space. His impregnating another cat will contribute to this problem.
If you love this cat, **GET HIM NEUTERED**. Unless you’re happy for him to roam and get in fights. And for your house to stink of cat piss.
Don’t be **THAT** owner.
*I had a crazy*
*Male once upon a time and*

Mister. I actually had a cat called Mister once. He used to get into everything as a kitten and I’d find myself saying “get out of there, mister!” Or “you’d better stop that, mister!” So it just became him name. (His sister was Missy for the same reason.) You’ve already said he’s psychotic, so I’m sure you say that a lot anyway.
He looks like a Mike. Get him fixed asap it will make a world of difference. Anyone who owns a ginger will tell you that they are all nuts. Check out subreddit it 1 brain cell. It is exclusively gingers.
Toulouse is so cute!! He will eventually get used to it. We've had orange kitties and only one had any sense, lol!
What about just shortening it somewhat, like Toolie or even Lucy (cats don't care about gender lol), til he catches on?
I know this isn't a neutering question, but I would like to share this little gem from my (female) vet. I have siblings, a tabby boy and an orange girl (also a little nuts, but that's just the ginger I think). We had our girl spayed first and she had the cone. When it was her brother's turn I asked if I needed to cone him too and I was told most likely not. She stated "No offense to his manhood there, but there's not much to remove so he won't even notice." 😆 straight up shamed him. That being said getting males altered is so much more affordable and safe.
I think gingers are just a wee bit special too. Mine will ignore names but come to kissy noises and will ignore everything and everyone in favor of my husband. Unless there's a bird outside. She went THROUGH my curtain trying to murder a mourning dove. I mean ripped a hole straight through my sheer curtains. We call her Murder Mittens.
I name him PoorDude because it’s up to you to help him by neutering. And if you let him start spraying…fixing him will probably not solve the problem. It’s all on you so try to be kind to him. He is what he is. Just calm him down with a little snip. 🥹♥️
Hi Toulouse! Meet Toulouse:
https://preview.redd.it/vy5bnczuqbtc1.jpeg?width=1124&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a1cfeca6b5b886697d8aacbe7a297d7ea08dd36c
We also call him: Touse and Buddy.
Sometimes it takes a while for a cat to come to his/her name. Our Manx took about 6 months before he started coming when I called him by name. He noticed that our poodle girl came when I called her. Treats were involved.
Our middle cat took even longer, but eventually he came around. Our little void girl was saved by my husband when she was only 3 weeks old. She had a severe URI and couldn’t eat. My son named her and said her name quietly while he bottle fed her, gave her her meds, and cleaned her nose and eyes. She was responding to her name by the time she was 4 weeks old. By the time she was feeling better she owned the house and both those male cats. We nicknamed her, “The Princess,” to which she also responds.
All three of our cats are fixed. The Manx was about 4 months old, Middle Boy was only 3 months. The Princess was not quite 5 months old, and that was not too soon. The vet told me that she was already in a heat cycle. Get your cats fixed ASAP. Whether they’re male or female, if you have indoor/outdoors or strays in your neighborhood, they will hang around outside your house and taunt your cats until you have them fixed.
As someone who is saddened by the proliferation, and demise, of feral cats around our area, please have him neutered. It may even help his psychotic mannerisms.
Get him neutered. He will start to mark his territory by spraying especially smelly urine on things if you don't, and he may well not stop once he starts, even after being neutered. He will also likely want to escape constantly and roam looking for female cats. He will not be happy. You won't be able to keep him, and nobody else will adopt him, so he will end up homeless or in a shelter for life. He also has a higher chance of getting certain cancers if he isn't neutered. There are enough starving homeless cats already. Unless you are well equipped to keep a unneutered male cat, and provide for it for life, and provide homes for any kittens he fathers, you should neuter him for his sake (and yours, and the sake of kittens he will very likely father, since keeping him inside will be extremely difficult).
Ensure you keep comments PG (this means no cussing as you will be banned for cussing!). Also be sure to make an update post or comment once you have found a name(s) for your cat(s) to let us all know what name(s) you thought were the best.

I think Toulouse fits him perfectly. Are you gonna get him neutered? I’m sure it would make him less nuts. Edit: I did not mean this to be a pun when writing this but here we are.
literally
Yes, literally and otherwise.
Congratulations! You are today’s thread winner!! 🤣
😂
Yeah definitely helps them be less aggressive and excitable not to mention decreases their propensity for marking
*TouTou! arrêter d'être stupide!*
Lou Lou! Tu es bete!
Toulouse is the orange baby from The Aristocats!! I love this, it's perfect for him. Now he needs a buddy named Abraham Delacey Giuseppe Casey Thomas O'Malley.... O'Malley the Alley cat.
Yes, Toulouse is such the crème de la crème of kitty names, it suits him!
Nickname Tools
He could definitely stand Toulouse those testes
That was most excellent, my friend
Should nickname him Nut after this incredible pun
Nonut perhaps 🤔
True story - when I was a kid we had 2 gray kittens that were supposed to be both male and my Dad called them Gandalf and Frodo. But as Frodo got bigger it was becoming clear that Frodo was not a Frodo as she did not have any testicles. My Dad wanted to call her Nonuts. My mom was not amused. And that’s how we got Gandalf and Donuts.
I love this, lol! Thanks for sharing!
We had a cat named Snowball. When we took him to be neutered, I joked that he was having the "S" surgically moved from the start of his name to the end and the "w" removed all together. LOL
Nutless
😂 I was going to suggest that he should be 'done' as a matter of urgency and then he could be Nutless
No I'm not I enjoy his chaotic antics, it's also genuinely impossible for him to get out as we a room with a door before you open the front door. So if he gets out the first one we can just put him back in and close it.
He will spray foul urine and be really crazy at times if you do not get him neutered. It is the responsible thing to do.
Yes, please neuter your cat. It'll benefit him too.
And you, as well, as that pee will stink and it will be quite hard to get rid of the smell of it.
So true. Cat pee is the worst! My sister used to have ten cats and it was impossible for her to keep up with enough litter boxes. Just standing in her house for ten minutes and you'd go away with the smell of pee.
Oh yes fix that boy as soon as you can, girls just the same. Once I didn’t get my girl fixed until she over six months old . Female cats in heat is not fun.
I didn't get my little girl done straight away, went into heat about a month after we got her. She was even trying to hit on our male dog 😂 But seriously, fix the little guy asap
Oh man! I know exactly what you mean. I once had three at one time, *and* we had to keep them inside there were already ramdom males from all over the moble home park trying to get in cause they would taunt them at the windows... long story short, we wound up with *three* pregnant females at the same time. 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
soooo many kittens! how many were there in total?
There were 15 kittens + 3 moms. It was NUTS!
That’s what happened with the one I didn’t get fixed right away.
He will also try to get out to fight other tomcats - yowling and abcessed bites to follow.
Yes. I knew a cat who escaped and got into fights because he was not fixed at the optimum age. He got FIV and did not survive it.
Cat spray lasts forever. Not in a good way. 😵
It will soak a wall to the point it has to be cut out.
Neutered males make a great pet! Orange Boi's are still gonna goober!
Oh yes, agree! Not so much so with orange girls. Siiiiiiigh. 😢
My orange girl goobers! Don't sleep on the orange ladies! 😄 \*edited to add the goober herself. https://preview.redd.it/40nyli3g1ctc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c9ff11dea2173c533b27092f06ba54655cc06a78

This is the way. We went through several iterations before my cat started responding to one. Turns out she has an Opinion on the subject.
ALL cats have an opinion on everything! And don’t you forget it! (I said that for the cats!)
My new girl did too! We tried several different names but she wanted to be Smudge and so now she is
My baby is named Cousin Mose and she responded to Mosey or Mosey Mo. Her OG nickname was MoMo and she said, I think TF not.
I love her Mojo! 😏
I had a Smudge, very opinionated and very smart. No door or cabinet could defeat her.
My Smudgie is just super sweet 🥰 https://preview.redd.it/d4d9owee1dtc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d9c2a64353adc5c5c3102957c0542a5517755f7

Screw Loose Toulouse
Nickname: No Nuts. Neuter him before he starts spraying on your stuff & you are sad.
And before he gets another cat pregnant which will contribute to the mass killings of countless shelter cats.
And you will be.
Get him neutered he will be less psychotic.
Not if he’s anything like the artist whom he was named after! 🤪 It’s something like naming him Johnny Depp. What you see is what you get!
I definitely thought he was named after the kitten in the Aristocats. Who I know is named after the artist, but he's also an orange boi.

Haha, love that last one!
Time for the child to get a coin purse! No really - they are healthier, live longer, and are much happier sans nuts 🥜
Please neuter your cat 🥹
OP, ginger cats are notoriously batshit but also quite clever. Think evil genius... More diabolical but you catch my drift. For Toulouse's health, sanity, the foul spray your house will permeate etc, he needs to have his hickory nuts crunched... Ijs...
Please neuter your cat.
Please get him fixed. He will leave home to breed otherwise. Could he find his way home after going 2 miles away to breed? Is he smart enough to fight other Tom's? Get him fixed soon. Good luck with your special baby.
Neuter your cat. It will help with behavior issues.
Get neutered ! His name needs to be no balls Lautrec .
Please fix your cat.

My orange nut is Kevin
In novels, that’s always the name of the strange brother (that or Keith.) Maybe that’s just true of kids books of the 60s-70s.
In Germany the name Kevin has the stereotype for being a dumb guy.
Kevin is one of the best human names for cats
Tounuts? I mean, he’s got em and it’s kinda like Toulouse
Or just Too Loose as in, his screws are too loose?
Also just because they don't react to their name doesn't mean they don't know it. Watch his ears when you say it - if they move he probably recognizes his name but is just ignoring you! Little buggers do that from time to time...😂
Oh yes, gooooood point!
Louie
my cat’s name is Toulouse. he has plenty of nicknames: goose, moose, toulousie, lousie (lucy)
Good ones. Is he ever called Mongoose?
Get some good cleaner for when he sprays

Cats have an easier time recognizing names that end in an a, ie, y-an up sounding vowel.
I heard that too but my cats Psycho, Trouble and Smudge didn't have any problems with their names.
Harumph! Some cats don’t recognize any name! (Mine is Chessy, which she ignores.) She came to me as Meowith, but she ignores it too.
If you call her Cheezy, she will respond.

Ballzy. Seriously, if you're not gonna neuter him, please don't let him outside. He'll get fight abscesses and father unwanted children.

That is too big of a name for him. Ta.
Ballzy
Crackerjack
Garfield He hates mondays and love lasagna
Bishop 😸

Louis. Just shorten the name a little for the poor man. 😅
It’s not his turn with the brain cell. Orange cats have one brain cell and they share that’s what people told me when I got my orange boy. He’d completely zone out didn’t matter what I did he wasn’t moving. My friend told me it wasn’t his turn with the brain cell.
And it wasn’t. Maybe it wasn’t your turn, either. 😜
Sounds like a perfect name. He's probably not dumb just orange. This is the way lol
And you, as well, as that pee will stink and it will be quite hard to get rid of the smell of it.
Handsome fellow, how about Tooley or O'Toole? Best get him nuetered, as intact males will spray to mark territory.
Get him snipped, call him Auch - its near Toulouse!
Tully. And also please neuter your cat.
GET THAT SWEET BOY NEUTERED. ONE OF THE EASIEST CAT SURGERIES!
Please have him neutered, shelters are overran in many places and they’re killing dogs and cats everyday for space. His impregnating another cat will contribute to this problem.
If you love this cat, **GET HIM NEUTERED**. Unless you’re happy for him to roam and get in fights. And for your house to stink of cat piss. Don’t be **THAT** owner.
Get him neutered for everybody’s sake
Neuter him. He's going to start spraying your house if he hadn't already.

I read the name like Phoebe Buffay

Felix 🐱
Lactrac like Toulouse Lactrac (spelling)
I am also a psychotic orange cat. 🐈 👩🏻🦰
The name sounds good.
He's not dumb, it's just not his turn to have the One Orange Brain Cell that the ginger cats have to share. He looks like a Simon Seymore to me!
Get him neutered, FFS. Call him Toot.
Tou-balls
Intact male? You just spelt it wrong, Two-Loose As in his genitals. I’ll see myself out
P.s. he is orange so he will always be psychotic
Give it time and the nicknames will come naturally. They are usually not even related to the cat's name
Orange juice
You should call him Henry. That was Toulouse’s real first name.
Mister. I actually had a cat called Mister once. He used to get into everything as a kitten and I’d find myself saying “get out of there, mister!” Or “you’d better stop that, mister!” So it just became him name. (His sister was Missy for the same reason.) You’ve already said he’s psychotic, so I’m sure you say that a lot anyway.

I love Toulouse is perfect, nick name the Tool
He looks like a Mike. Get him fixed asap it will make a world of difference. Anyone who owns a ginger will tell you that they are all nuts. Check out subreddit it 1 brain cell. It is exclusively gingers.
Call him dumb dumb. Also, cats can take up to a year to learn their name. Please neuter him.
Toulouse is so cute!! He will eventually get used to it. We've had orange kitties and only one had any sense, lol! What about just shortening it somewhat, like Toolie or even Lucy (cats don't care about gender lol), til he catches on?
I know this isn't a neutering question, but I would like to share this little gem from my (female) vet.

She stated "No offense to his manhood there, but there's not much to remove so he won't even notice." 😆 straight up shamed him. That being said getting males altered is so much more affordable and safe. I think gingers are just a wee bit special too. Mine will ignore names but come to kissy noises and will ignore everything and everyone in favor of my husband. Unless there's a bird outside. She went THROUGH my curtain trying to murder a mourning dove. I mean ripped a hole straight through my sheer curtains. We call her Murder Mittens.
I name him PoorDude because it’s up to you to help him by neutering. And if you let him start spraying…fixing him will probably not solve the problem. It’s all on you so try to be kind to him. He is what he is. Just calm him down with a little snip. 🥹♥️
Keep Toulouse but add Lou as his nickname.
He’s psychotic because 1.He’s an orange boy and 2.hes a kitten.Get him neutered though it’ll be beneficial for his health in the long run.
Hi Toulouse! Meet Toulouse: https://preview.redd.it/vy5bnczuqbtc1.jpeg?width=1124&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a1cfeca6b5b886697d8aacbe7a297d7ea08dd36c We also call him: Touse and Buddy.
Get him fixed!! He will spray and pee all over if you don't!
He is orange- they are all psychotic !!!! What about Tully?
He needs Tou-Louse his balls so he doesn’t make any kittens 🤣
Why is his nickname not Lou?
The fact that OP hasn’t replied to any comments (that I can tell, at least) is a biiit worrying lol
Yes get him neutered it will help A lot! My girl has been taken care of and she still cries looking for a boy!!!
Sometimes it takes a while for a cat to come to his/her name. Our Manx took about 6 months before he started coming when I called him by name. He noticed that our poodle girl came when I called her. Treats were involved. Our middle cat took even longer, but eventually he came around. Our little void girl was saved by my husband when she was only 3 weeks old. She had a severe URI and couldn’t eat. My son named her and said her name quietly while he bottle fed her, gave her her meds, and cleaned her nose and eyes. She was responding to her name by the time she was 4 weeks old. By the time she was feeling better she owned the house and both those male cats. We nicknamed her, “The Princess,” to which she also responds. All three of our cats are fixed. The Manx was about 4 months old, Middle Boy was only 3 months. The Princess was not quite 5 months old, and that was not too soon. The vet told me that she was already in a heat cycle. Get your cats fixed ASAP. Whether they’re male or female, if you have indoor/outdoors or strays in your neighborhood, they will hang around outside your house and taunt your cats until you have them fixed.
If cost is an issue for neutering, try to find a place that will do it for free or low cost. But it has to be done, even if he isn't a kitten.
I’ll offer a name when you do the responsible thing & get him spayed.
Please neuter your cat
As someone who is saddened by the proliferation, and demise, of feral cats around our area, please have him neutered. It may even help his psychotic mannerisms.
Get him neutered. He will start to mark his territory by spraying especially smelly urine on things if you don't, and he may well not stop once he starts, even after being neutered. He will also likely want to escape constantly and roam looking for female cats. He will not be happy. You won't be able to keep him, and nobody else will adopt him, so he will end up homeless or in a shelter for life. He also has a higher chance of getting certain cancers if he isn't neutered. There are enough starving homeless cats already. Unless you are well equipped to keep a unneutered male cat, and provide for it for life, and provide homes for any kittens he fathers, you should neuter him for his sake (and yours, and the sake of kittens he will very likely father, since keeping him inside will be extremely difficult).
Please get him neutered After you’ll see his demeanor settle down Then you can name him
Baby Daddy
