She took to the local "kitty condo" right away. You probably can't tell, but she has blue eyes.
She is spending lots of time looking out the window.
Here she is using one of her scratching posts. (Good kitty!)
I got her from a friend of mine who adopted her from the animal shelter we both volunteer at, but she couldn't keep her because her husband's cat allergy got a lot worse recently. My friend named her Tillie, after the "air plant," Tillandsia, because when she first arrived, she didn't eat much. But now, as you can see, she eats a lot. So we're going to rename her. We haven't come up with any names we're thrilled with. (I'm calling her "Hello Hello," but I expect the OH won't let me get away with that. :-) Suggestions are welcome!

I think Tillie's still a nice name, even if it doesn't mean Tillandsia anymore.
We kept "DJ," even though it no longer means the "Danielle Junior" it did when she came to us. :)

I'm sure you'll be happy with
Do you have any traditions, schemas, whatever, you keep to as regards the naming of cats or is it "just what seems appropos for the cat?"
And I still like "~" as a name...
at least the most recent two).

P.S.: Yes, a ::me too:: on the purtiness and all.
(If you don't want to call her Tillie anymore, how's "Mocha"?)
Name suggestions from a translation site ...
Since she lives at the Cat & Dragon
Brujah - female informal translation for dragon in
Spainish ...
Kaz! - Yiddish translation for cat
my spanish-english pocket dictionary from Collins says that the spanish word for "dragon" is "dragòn".

translations for dragon.
Can't say I blame him. ;)
As for suggestions, I'm vaguely confused as to why "Tillie" can't stand alone.

::grin::...looks like a fun kitty, too.
i usually go with "catface" or something like that until the cat names zirself, so i am not gonna be much help with the naming. except that i don't like "tillie" at all for her, and i think "hello hello" rocks. :)
*stares at the pictures for a while, pondering*.
maybe i'd name her "chiaroscuro" if she were ok with that.
You could always name her "Miao", so that she could introduce herself...*grin*
Of course, that'll probably backfire. When I was about six, I was gifted with a cockatiel that we named "Ima Bird", so that when he learned to speak, people would ask his name and he'd say "Ima bird". Except that he was the strong silent type and never said a word.
He could whistle the theme song to Good Morning America and the very beginning of "Can't Smile Without You". :)
