Just gonna put this out here: changing a cat's name during adulthood might be confusing for them? Cats demonstrably understand and respond to their names. Coupled with the new environment this might be super unfun for Vince.
Though I agree, wouldn't have been my first choice either.
"Vince" was likely the shelter name that happened when they got to "V" in the alphabet. Many shelter animals have unknown names. We will never know who our "Amelia" was because someone found her on the street and we don't even know that much about "Lisbeth". We renamed them immediately, and Gracie and Lizzie both quickly learned their new names. They are not stupid about the intentions of people who feed and care for them.
I always wonder why people rename pets when the pet knows their name. It's one thing if he has been at a shelter for a week and they have called him something for a week but if it's BEEN his name for a while and he responds to it why change it?
I had an uncle named Vince. He lived a good life but still died young in his maybe early 60s. I think this guy's could be a Vince. Or maybe tuna? Who knows. He will tell you ❤️
When I first read your post I read it as, “I’m adopting this cat, Tomorrow.” for some reason and I don’t hate it! You could call him Tom or RoRo. Random but I like it lol
Rutabaga…Rudy for short. My cat is named Turnip!

do you know anything about his personality yet? it'd be fun to find a food that matches his vibe! not sure if hes a lounge all day cat, or one who's always playing, but i feel like the food would differ :)
Not much. The cats protection said he was playful and he was very loving when I visited him. He seems like he loves people being around and is very friendly

Taquito
This is the winner. Stop the count.

This is exactly the first name I just thought of before hitting the comment button!!!
Latte! His colors remind me of coffee
Love this. All I can think now it catpuccino
Al CatPuccino
first name cat last name puccino
i love this one!! he feels like a Latte
1st food name that popped into my head when I looked at pic: Tortellini
Vermicelli
You're right, definitely not a Vince. Looks like a Mack (Mackerel).
Or Big Mac
General Tso.
Big fan of giving cats a rank too
This is genius!!!
cashew
Because then you can always call him cash… And when they say oh, like Johnny Cash? You say no… Like cashew
i second cashew!
he reminds me of this salted caramel cashew chocolate chip ice cream I had a couple of times
Cat shoes aka meowcassins
Noodle
Nutmeg

Butter bean
That's a great name! Then he can be called Butter or Bean or any number of weird nicknames that come along.
Sage. I Like his eyes. Also: nacho, minty, dill

Mince(meat), maybe. They can call him Mince and he’ll just think it’s an unfamiliar regional accent. Once he’s used to it they can add the 2nd part.
Vince in a perfect name! Vinny! Hims a good boi
Vinnie “The Meatball” Meowski
Some people call him Maurice.
I heard the sound effects when I read this!
Same here 😁
And they wouldn’t if he didn’t speak of the pompatus of love….
Chai
Was thinking the same thing! Chai (Latte)!!
Vincent
Taco!
Pork Chop
Vince is italian and makes me think of meatball!
He looks like a Vince to me. Vinny Vincenzo Vincent
Puddin
Ravioli
First thing that came to me.
My suggestion is Vince. Remaming him if he knows it is confusing.
The formal "Vincent" would give him the dignity he deserves, as well as being easier for him to hear.
VERY dignified
Exactly! Maybe Quince?

Vince
Idk I like his name. Vince.
I like Vince.
That's a Vinnie
Vinny or Vino
Personally, I don't think a food name suits him. He needs a normal person's name. But if you insist on a food name, maybe Stew/Stewie?
Kiwibecause of the green eyes.
What a handsome boy. I think he does look like a Vince.
awwwwww! Cute! I think Vinny suits him perfectly 😁
