Re: A Name


Jem, I can't make it out too well from the pic, but if she has tabby markings on face, legs, tummy, tail, and a tortie coat, then she's a torbie: tabby-tortie! They're also known sometimes as patched tabbies.....

Re: A Name


Well in my opinion tortie/Calico cats are usually dainty, feminine - real ladies in fact.

And due to the mix up of colours how about these names...not Charlie Brown related though. Soz

Pastiche - simply because she is colourwise
Jumble - Same reason

But of those you have I like Truffle.

Re: A Name


Yes, you're right there Jem.

I think therefore that Truffle is a lovely name As sweet as a box of chocolates

Re: A Name


I like the name truffles. It sounds so sweet, and cute.
Like marbles though but thought if you had too ask anybody have you seen marbles by saying "Ive lost my marbles" you might get funny looks.
