...for this little kitten that wondered in our lives today. I know a lot of you don't like cats but this one was so pitiful looking I had to take her in. She appears to be 4-6 months old and a little abused. Her tail is missing half of it and the part that is there has been broken and healed. I love the patches on her face. So anyone want to help me name her. Thanks for looking:D

Rob,
Good for you,having the compassion to take her in.
Name suggestions:
Patches
Spot (I know,dogs name)
Peaches

Hope she makes a good addition to your family.:)
 
We have a pregnant orange cat name Peaches,a shelty named Tanner,a calico cat named Ruth,another calico named Lucy,a cream and white cat named Murphy,a black cat named Midnight,and 2 beagles named Duke and Sady. How's that for pets. Most of the cats are strays. I agree with Patches for that cat.:D:D
 
"Patches" is good, but going to the tail theme, how 'bout "Stumpy", "Nubby" or "Bobbie"?
 
Last fathers day weekend, I had to go by the office, and there was a very badly dehydrated 4 week old kitten in the flower bed outside the office. I picked her up and took her into the airconditioning and got her some water. I left her in a paper box in my office, and went and searched for siblings or a mother cat. We never found another cat anywhere.

Long story short, brought her home, got her something to eat and let her sleep. She was in rough shape. Went to take her to the shelter on Sunday morning, and the wife said we should keep her for another week to make sure she would be alright. Needless to say, she never made it to the shelter. She is a family member now with another cat we have. One of the best pets ever.

I like patches, it should be the first thing that comes to your mind. Lucky is probably another good name, seeing as she is lucky she found you!
 
Patches sounds like a good name but I have a couple to consider.

I agree with Rojo22 that Lucky is a good name. Out last adopted cat is named Lucky for "Lucky we took him in"

Another good choice would be "Boo-Boo Kitty" in reference to the tail.

What a great Elizabeth Taylor reference. For those of you who are youngsters, Elizabeth Taylor played Margaret "Maggie the Cat" Pollitt opposite Paul Newman and Burl Ives in 1958's "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof". A "must see" movie!
 
My cats have all been "rescued." So have our dogs. Patches seems the fav here.

I think 'Smores' is a great name for her, too. or Cappuchino? (Don't know how to spell it right now. But Bear Tooth Woods has an acrylic blank with her name on it!

I never saw "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."
 
How about Lucky? It was lucky enough to find someone willing to care for it; instead of some more abuse.

We recently adopted a mama cat and four kittens, she had the kittens in one of our trees, and we just couldn't take them to the pound. So, much to the dismay of our three dogs, now we have five cats as well.
 
If you name her patches, you should call her Patches .825. That is a software reference for us IT geeks, seeing as she has a tail missing, she is 7/8ths of a whole Patch......

Here's one for the Sci-Fi geeks..... Call her "Valerie 23"
 
You people are making my heart and spirit feel so good because you have the compassion to save and love animals. Please be sure to have them all fixed. Bless you all!

how about jackpot since she hit the jackpot when you 1.found her 2. fed and bathed her and 3.when you adopted her. Maybe Trifecta?
 
A long time ago, some friends of mine named their kittens "Tonic", "Clysm", "Pillar", ... you get the pattern.

One monsoon my neighbor found a very wet, very bedraggled kitten in his yard. He adopted it and named it D. O. Which stood for Drowned Orphan.
