I also thought of calling him "Pucca", after a Celtic goblin-like being that was mischievous in nature. Unfortunately, I don't think his eyes will stay that blue, if they remain blue at all. It would be very odd for a tabby cat that's not a pointed(Siamese-marked)cat to have blue eyes. All baby kittens have blue eyes when they first open, but they change to green or gold or amber. His will most likely be bright green when he's older. His lack of fear of everything is almost disturbing, though; earlier today he was trying to play with an eight-foot Black Ratsnake that was in its cage, and the snake seriously wanted to eat him, and would have done so if it could have gotten to him(and to think I normally have to teach my cats not to try to eat the snakes). He seemed amused by the snake trying to grab him through the glass. The usual bottle of "cat solvent"(water)does not work with this little guy; he is perfectly happy to let you squirt water in his face all day! I'm wondering if maybe he's not part bobcat, considering those large ears and his love of water, since the bobcats I've had all loved water like they were fish. He's also got a different coat texture from most short-haired cats, almost like an Akita puppy's coat. My adult Pixie-bob cat, "Nub", who is part bobcat, has a similar coat, but hers is more spotted than striped.
