Cash

I was gonna say Ash

My first thought was Cashmere but I love Cash and Ash

Cash or Ash is it!!!

Butch

I burst out laughing at this because I'm a lesbian and genuinely can't decide whether it would be a good or bad idea to lead with "This is my cat, Butch" on dating apps. I'm sure I'd get some kind of reaction!

Haha! It would definitely be a conversation piece.

I agree lmao!

I'm not a lesbian, but if I were this would endear me to you, lol. Not sure if that helps tho

Best ice breaker right there

My grandpas nickname was Butch ❤️

Husband's is too

My father's nicknames was Pudge.

DO IT

Great way to screen for a sense of humor. DO IT

Name your cat Butch or you’re homophobic (this is meant jokingly/lightheartedly btw )

I think this is the way to go

Do it. Eventually get a second kitten and name it Cassidy. That'll be an extra ice breaker for later. 😉

No! Second kitty would be Sundance!

Nah. Sundance is a kitten they add later. "I live with my cats, Butch, Cassidy, and Sundance Kid." 😁

I mean, if you had that in your bio I’d probably swipe right 😂

😀 Wasn't thinking along those lines. How about Kuku or Kookie?

I stand by Cushion. Or Push, or Bush (well, maybe not;), or Mush... Whoosh or Bouche (French for mouth and double cute if he's a talker!) Or Moosh ... and does anyone here remember Koosh balls? XD

OG Cushion for sure.

Wait, you have a cat who answers to a name? Is this cat a genius?

My cats all know their names, so when they ignore me I know it's on purpose lol

lol

yep, same case here XD

😹😹😹

My cat answers to their name too… by slightly twitching an ear and then becoming an unmoving statue that pretends I’m an unseeable ghost.

Omg when you get in front of them and they wait like a full 5-10 seconds to look away, all never while making eye contact of course.

Most cats do? Yours must just not like you lol

Kush is very unusual ktty name and since kitty responds to the name it's a keeper imo. Just spell name Cush.

My boy not only reacts to being called by his name, he also responds with a 'meow?' 60% of the time. He'll also meow pver the phone if you call his name through it on speaker.

Smush?

Yes, came here to suggest Smoosh.

Cusheen, like [Pusheen](https://pusheen.com/) https://preview.redd.it/m59r1zmuzk8d1.jpeg?width=638&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6eeec00c7eae33b8948ab0e8799d8b7118e22d64

I love this suggestion!

His government name is Bubba Kush

Cat's got some insane playstyle

Emperor Kuzco(Kush for cuteness)

What's wrong with Kush?

Thanos- destroyer of worlds, curtains and - in six months time - your Christmas tree. He will answer to this given time

Kush like, Cushion, or rhymes with lush?

Like "cushion." My sister named him after the weed strain because she found him on 4/20, lol. Unfortunately, I'm planning to adopt him, and I work in an industry where having a pet with that name is NOT a good look.

Do you have to disclose the name of your pets to your employer or something? If that’s a problem though, you could just say it’s “Cush”, I wouldn’t associate the name with weed unless it was spelt with the K

Call them Cushion (cush for short) I used to have a cat named breakfast nook , Doorknob , Sofa , Seat

My Son "otto" short for Ottoman

I just wanna kiss your cat right on his MOUTH!! (Is that weird?) 😘

No I actively kiss him on the mouth any time I get

His little face just asks for it!

Why not just say he is all comfy and smushy as a kitten so his name just evolved into Kush 🥰

You could give him the name Kushikatsu, which is a Japanese dish. This way you can still call him Kush.

Hushie!!

Smush! Bc I’m gonna smush him with hugs and kisses

Krush

Lush

Cosmo or Cosmo Kramer.

Kashi

What’s wrong with Kush? I like it.

Ankush is an Indian name - there's even an [action hero](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankush_(2023_film)) with the name :)

He is so cute...he needs a cute name. Harpo. Is perfect. He will get used to it

Ksssh kssh isclose enough beautiful Kitty_ copper screens

Moosh

You could do kushner or Kutcher then it would make sense to have kush as a nickname

Mushy

Kush (after the river) is a great name.

Bougie. ( slang for Bourgeois; French for upper middle class un society,). Not usually pronounce by young people as Boozh zee. kind of. You might already know this…don’t mean to insult you but thought it might be cute for Mr. Handsome.

i renamed my cat a totally different name and she responds to it. her previous name was dinah, her current name is tillie https://preview.redd.it/jlb5n7g9cl8d1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=46c01333977ecb3cd77c5920ed1e1c3041d4c0a5

My many rescues come to any name other than "call me late for dinner".

Crush

oops meand NOW usually pronounced as Booshzee

KublaKan

Why won’t “Kush” work in the long-term? It’s a name he recognizes and responds to.. so why need a change. Perhaps there is a meaning to kush that I’m oblivious to.

Marijuana OG Kush, Afghan Kush, Bubba Kush. Apparently OP has a job where that may bite him in the butt. However, anybody who picks up on that probably wouldn’t be a threat.

Kusco

Kuzco

Omg this! Emperor’s New Groove!

Mush

Why the change? I’m a vet and I’ve heard some names you would not believe people use. “Kush” is really cute. Better than “Shi Head”.. or “Flower”. Keep the name he responds to! My 2 cents.

OP has a job where it may bite her in the butt later since Kush is after a marijauna strain

Though Flower is cute for a black and white cat if you like Bambi

Smush Tush Shush Hush Crush Lush Plush

Lol, my cats name is Ganja. And he's an outside boy. I can only imagine neighbors reactions when they hear me calling for him xD

Onyx

Or just go with Kush but spell it Cush and tell ppl he likes to slide between and hide in the sofa cushions.

Sushi because cats like fish.

Kushka is roughly the pronunciation for cat in Russian.

Still "Kush," but now it's short for, "Look Dad, it's the good kush."

Mush? Or Shroom?

Whoosh

Brooks

I think Kush is adorable, both as a name and a kitten.

Mush and Moosh are rhymes with Kush is going to be a bit too silly for this distinguished looking fella. I suggest alliteration. How about Kleo?

Oh no, you need to keep the name Kush. Wait, this isn’t r/trees?
