A 13 pounder! A diet is called for, I think. Her belly was shaved for spaying and you can see her fat rolls. That's sort of what I look like with my shirt off, actually.
She's also very interested in food of all kinds, heh. She's exactly the same sweet, affectionate girl we met at the shelter, very very gentle and not at all aggressive so while Inty and Zoe aren't exactly thrilled, she's not challenging them at all. Her current name is Patches - although she doesn't seem to respond to her name - and neither Dave nor I are in love with that (so obvious and boring for a tortie) but we haven't thought of any others. I'm taking suggestions, if you've got any. We got her on Bastille day; maybe something French?
Om nom nom
These corn nuts seem edible.
Check out my fat rolls. They're much more interesting than William Gibson.

Hmmm...that belly is disturbingly like my own...though mine is only a pallid white, not multi-colored.
Names....
Charlotte? (for Corday)
Couchon? (pig)
Tortue? (tortoise in French)
But I keep thinking she looks like a Simone. Or Sabine.
Oh, I like Simone.
She is a cutie.
I like Simone, too. Dave has expressed some interest in Simone.
Gros Orpheline (from another friend) is hilarious, as is Couchon. Heh.
Those are all good names, and I do like Simone. One more, in honor of my mother who thinks dark torties look somewhat... ethnic: Juanita.
heh. Juanita.
But it's Simone, we've decided, so thank you, Rooie!
Simone P. (for Patches) deBeer. I love a cat with a middle initial.
Congratulations on the new addition! I can't wait to meet her.
Yay!
Anyone got anything else they want named?
she is pretty interested in the furbrillator as well.
I think you mean the defurbrillator, honey ... uh ... "anonymous"
(The defurbrillator is what we call a brand of cat brush called the Furminator. I may post about it some day soon.)
Aw, what a sweetie! I have a particular fondness for torties. Congrats on the new family member.
(I'm slowly catching up on my blog-reading.)
