' A torti... good pick. We lost our beloved 17 yr old girl last year. She was a rescue too. Smart as a whip, so much personality, she charmed everyone who met her although I must admit it took her a few months to settle in. She was a street cat and was starving when we took her in and I think her hormones were all out of whack. Once she felt better though, we couldn’t have asked for a more affectionate and funny companion. We called her Turtle, not because she was a torti, but after the little girl in the book “The Bean Trees”. She was so tired of being in the SPCA and when I picked her her up out of the kennel she wrapped her little paws around my neck and wouldn’t let go like the little kid in the book..

What name did she come with? I always kept my adopted pets names the same and ended up calling them things like Schmoopy.

My formerly feral (came in from wild, not a shelter so no name) is Katy Purry. I love it when I get calls and emails from the vet checking in on Katy Purry.

My last cat was a rescue. When we got him from the shelter, the name on his cage said “Flick” in capitals. Unfortunately the way it was written made it look like “FUCK”. So for several days he was Fuck The Cat.
