Well, here is the new girl around these parts. There's a thread in the lounge that I just posted about this baby, you can read it here: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71528. Anyway, she was found wandering around New Orleans in October, covered in junk and emaciated. The woman who picked her up had promised herself no cats would be coming back with her, but she said something special about this girl made her NEED to bring her home. So, she got on a plane a flew back to Chicago from New Orleans. Well, they eventually found an owner...he was living in Ohio and didn't want anything to do with this cat, so she came to live at the shelter. Unfortunately, the shelter was having an overflow problem, so she was one of the ones picked to live with a foster ( I don't know why, she seems highly adoptable, maybe they didn't even have room to admit her, I don't know). Anyway, that's how I stumled upon her.



Here's all of her markings:


Sorry they're so dark...the flash was freaking her out. I managed to get this one halfway decent one:


And she really, really needs a name.

I voted for Gracie before seeing Heidi's post.
I think Karmen Isabel would be nice.

I would name her Grace, because it is surely some special grace that allowed her to survive a hurricane, escape being returned to an uncaring owner, and be guided to just the place and time where she was needed to help you heal.


Grace

That's really beautiful. I like that idea...I'm going to try calling her Gracie and see how it fits.

I voted for Gracie. What a gorgeous little girl. How can someone be so unfeeling towards such a little cutie? I am so glad she ended up with you.

I voted for Gracie, as well. It fits her, surviving all she did and still being such a beautiful girl!

I'm a little partial to calicos with "Grace" in their names, anyway.

Well arent cats supposed to have 3 names? What about karmen grace, (sounds like karma and grace) you can call her gracie for short. Either way she is a doll!

Congratulations on your new addition. What a beauty!

I voted for Gracie, having a special little cat by that name myself.
But, I like Lucy too because it sounds cute with Leo.

Well, I think we've decided on Gracie. She is such a special little kitty and she is a perfect little Southern Belle with grace to spare. Plus, the way she ended up with us, I really don't think that any other name is as special or meaningful

Why not just call her Katrina? I mean she was a victom of the Hurricane, and she is obviously something good that came out of the Hurricane.
