When we adopted my "Neko"..He was just turning "5 years old". His previous owner had him from birth. She named him "Neko". Well, after adopting him and getting him home, we figured that he had alot to adapt to anyway so we just left the name. I personally don't care to much for it and wish that we could have gave him a name that we felt would match his personality. But again, with the name being "Neko" since birth and he was currently 5 years old already, and he had alot to get use to coming to a new home and all, we just left it. My next fur baby I guess we will have the pleasure of naming ourselves...lol
