    Aw don't be rotten to her .. she isn't plump .. she is just lovely!! ... poor cat!
    And not having a name at her age? Heck, I even name the birds who come to feed in my back garden (Stumpy is a blackbird with no tail, One Feather is a collared dove with just one feather in his tail ... etc etc!!)

    Everything deserves a name .. and she is just so beautiful and "dignified" in her pics that she needs a nice grown up name, so I would call her Belle ... lovely Belle, the tortoiseshell.

    Aww, I like that.

    Well we got her from a rescue centre and they hadn't named her yet, so we have the privilege

    I had a tortoiseshell called Tosca. Just liked the name! I know it sounds a bit "boyish" but it kind of suited her!

    She's lovely and not nearly as fat as one of the monsters I have!

    I think cats should have "proper names".

    How about Bertha (for a big girl;)).

    But Tosca is a woman. :confused:

    I think the cat looks like a Smudge.

    The feminine of ''incognito'' http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/incognito

    A name often given to mysterious unamed figures of mystery. Cats are mysterious, and she has not revealed her name. :)

    Is there a female version of Rumpelstiltskin in fairy stories or fables?

    Once you have made her acquaintance and her nature reveals itself so will her name, I'm sure.

    She's a very pretty lady and I hope you'll be very happy together.

    Top marks for choosing an oldie, by the way
