I agree with Mimi - only you can name your kitty, Beth. However, I can't help but try and play off the tortoise theme......
slider? (ok, that's a turtle....)
shelly?
How about Sulcata and call her Katy.....or Sulkie......
Enjoy - she is beautiful!

Oh such beautiful kitty. She's already getting used to her home all streched out. And thank you so much for adopting... It makes me teary eyed when animals get adopted to a loving home.
I'm sure you will find an appropriate name for your new baby.
Sincerely and hugs to the little kitty,

Congratulations on your new kitty! We just love kitties at my house -- we have 8! Names are so tough. I'd like to name a kitty Piper but I haven't had one that looked like a Piper yet.
Good luck with your name search! It took nearly a month to name one of ours -- we kept changing it! Her name is Pinkie. Her nose is bright pink and she responded to her name right away. >^..^<
Oh, some kitty advice, in case your other kitties don't like the new baby. Give all of the cats a bath, I know, not fun at all. In bathing all of the cats, they will all smell the same and their smell won't be threatening to each other. Worked like a charm with a couple of mine who hated each other initially -- they're best of buddies now.

She is beautiful! My torti is named Juno but she is named for her personality and not her coloring. Be prepared for a wonderful and somewhat temperamental relationshipTortis can be headstrong but very intelligent.
I am SO glad you adopted her. DH and I were at the local rescue/adoption place last night. We always look though we already have five of the little buggers. There were two cats that had been rescued from Katrina. They seemed like THE nicest cats...I wish I could take them all home.
She is beautiful. She reminds me of my tortie, "Saw." You guys are so blessed.
How about Amber or Nugget?
Enjoy your new addition and I hope you guys have many, many years to joy and togetherness!

OH! what a gorgeous cat! She really is a beauty.
I think her name is something with a "D". No idea whyPandora? Pandy (short for pandemonium)?
So what's her personality like - regal, noisy, aloof, friendly, shy?

Pebbles?
I took a nap in the guest bedroom yesterday, and she came out from under the bed. She was living in a kennel in the lobby of the vet's office, so she isn't afraid of people. At one point there was a fly or something flitting around, and she did her best to catch it, but the neighbor's barking dog frightened her, so ZIP! under the bed. Apparently she does *talk*, but thus far has been quiet. Does have a loud purrer. When I gave her breakfast this morning, I had to coax her out from under the bed. Soon she'll get used to the house routine and noises.
Bonnie cat is a tortoise shell cat as well, and VERY talkative. So hopefully new kitty won't be as loud. She does have a pleasant voice, when she did meow (or mioux if she speaks french, she is from Louisiana afterall). Bonnie cat does NOT have a pleasant voice.
Once I see her more relaxed and what her personality will be like, the name will come. But keep the ideas coming too!

My eldest son has a cat named Catch. But when they adopted him he had a serious intestinal issues, which lead to diarrhea...so his nickname became Poo-Kitty. Then comes along Grandson, who's grown up with Poo. One of his first words of course, is Poo. Every cat is Poo to him. So everywhere we go, he points and says PooooO? He's very cute. Poo has been a great companion for the little guy.
Here they are having a conversation. Might be about that ball in the baby's lap?
uh-oh - that looks like an accident waiting to happen
very cute photo, though.
I'm hoping Poo-cat is sedate and wellmannered when it comes to claws...

oh oh my turn!
Montage (cause she is a montage of colors)
Sparkle
splash (cause she looks like she was splashed with colors)
She is very cute-how lucky she is to be adopted. It is not easy to adopt the older kitty's. I help out at our local cat rescue place. and there are a lot of older kitty's who just aren't as lucky as the young one's! Keep us updated on how she adjusts. Oh and what name you pick or her!
Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
