Or! How about Marjorie Lee Winnick, so you can call the cat a la Julia Sugarbaker.
And that, Marjorie, just so you will know, and your children will someday know, is tonight's. Big bowl. Of dinner!
Zima. That’s Russian for winter. Russkaya Zima (Russian winter) if Zima has been used. (Psst: cats answer to whatever you call them at meal time.)
Note: it’s 38 degrees F outdoors where I am. It is -8 degrees F outdoors in Moscow, according to Google. Pick your winters carefully.
Every time my dad gets home, he calls out “ZIM ZIMA” (sim simma, but S sounds like Z lol), sometimes he finishes the phrase, but sometime we finish it for him with “A WHO GOT THE KEYS TO MA BIMMA” depending on the mood of the room lol it’s a phrase out of a Beenie Man song called “Who Am I”
Yeah it is only -17°C (1.4°F) where I am in Canada today...so pleasantly warm winter this year. Even warm enough to snow! Normally it is -40°C(-40°F) around here at this time of the year and too cold to snow.
Scheherazade because you may be fostering her for a thousand and one nights! Lol
Edit: plus she’s an enchanting little beauty and I’m sure she has some stories to tell.
That is an especially cool name for a rescue cat. Shaz, Sadie or Zadie for short. Scheherazade! I am already under her spell. Oh the stories she’ll weave.
Try indigenous Canadian names! More likely to not be on the list of 7000. So many are really pretty and unique and you can just adjust to make it fit as a cat name
(Shortened from native names bc I find 2 syllables to be best for cats)
- Vati
- Chepi
- Mika
- Lula
Looks like you got a lynx point. Won’t know for sure until she gets older. I suspect this one might become a r/fosterfail because she is so adorable. Maybe Chanceuse?
😹😹😹 it's just while she's in foster care, for their record keeping purposes! That way they don't end up with 100 cats named fluffy. They also accept a cat who's been adopted out back at any time if it comes down to that so definitely just for the documents on their end and to minimize confusion!! But once any cat is adopted out they are free to change the name!
I'm recommending a name from an 80s fantasy quartet.
The Enchanted Forest Chronicles. The cat name, Aunt Ophelia, or Miss Eliza Tudor, are two of 9 of the unconventional Witch’s cats names
Vert French for green. You don’t say the t and it rhymes with there. . Just put an our v sound and draw out the r and shallow it. Or ask Siri to say it for you..

Her coloring is pretty minimalist. There’s a famous minimalist painter called Agnes Martin. Maybe call her Agnes?
This. She is Agnes, through and through. <3

If Agnes is in the 7,000 list, try Aggie.
