1. A
He's going to be my best friend, I can already tell. He seeks me out for affection and gives the same to me. The only things he asks for are food, a place to sleep, a litter box, and to be treated well. I can live up to those expectations easily, being a friend to a human is much harder. I see this never going wrong.
I will name him A. It's a simple name that can mean many things, and it allows me some comfort for many reasons. I miss the original A...but the new A will keep me company for now.
